Thank the lord those two girls managed to get away and raise the alarm, goodness knows how many more innocent victims he would have gone on to rape and molest. He will sure have left his mark on those poor victims. My heart goes out to them, they must have been so terrified and no doubt traumatised for rest of their lives. What a horrible ordeal for them. Doesn't bear thinking about it does it.
We really don't need demons like this, just hang the b*tard

I think everyone (except the hand wringers) would agree that there is one root cause of this sort of thing: our broken penal system.
The courts like to hand out lenient sentences.
The probation authorities like to let criminals out of custody for any possible excuse.
Freed criminals can continue their criminal activities unabated due to our police shortage.
Everything seems slewed against the victim and in favour of the criminal. It's just how this country operates today.
Politicians promise to put this right but, of course, once they are in government nothing is done. They all lie.
I'm sorry to say that I cannot see a solution on the horizon. The only thing that we, the ordinary people, can do is to take the law into our own hands. Perhaps that will happen the way things are going.
I remember watching a film (I can't remember the title) in which an old, rather infirm, ex-soldier was angry at his friend being killed by a gang of criminal yobs. The police and authorities were, of course, useless and did nothing, so he took action by buying an illegal handgun. He went out and sorted the problem himself. He was clever enough to ensure he was not identified and arrested.
A 'feel good' film.
