Republican pardons child rapist
 

The party of family values.

Trying to find a republican that isn't corrupt is like trying to find a piece of gold in a pile of ****.

imagine using the rape of a child to make some cheap political jibe

:umm2:

Par for the course from the left, even the bearded idiot did the same during the election campaigning. .

Isn't every other single thread on the forum enough for you two to troll?

This is all you took from the OP? Frightening!

If that's how you see it then I shall leave you to chat away with the other posters in here.:wavey:

A new low.

I hope the mods react

The conviction looks dodgy at best.:shrug:

Scare tactics in the headline..but when you delve a little deeper it's not all black and white as it first seemed after the shock of the headline wears off.

You're not allowed to have a different opinion Parmy,I thought you knew that.:hehe:

I imagine if this was a democrat governer, LT's, Parm's and Kazanne's reactions would be entirely different which makes LT's claims of the left politcising the issue entirely hypocritical.

A child rapist was freed and justice wasn't served for his victim and your first instinct is to defend the governer by blaming the left? Utterly gross.

On child rapists going free? :shocked:

What is a different opinion rather than condemn it? Tell me Kazanne

He was pardoned because of the weak conviction..not because the bloke is a republican. .get a grip of yourselves fgs

It wasn't a weak conviction, and none of the evidence suggests it was. It's not even the only child rapist that he pardoned.

Look, I am not saying we should lock up anyone who is accused of molesting a minor. Of course there needs to be sufficient evidence. BUT, I dread to think of the repercussions for this 9 year old kid when they find out justice was never served and that the person who took advantage of them could still be walking among them.

This has nothing to do with the Left or the Right. But it has everything to do with what is wrong and right. You could say there was weak evidence, but to me that tells me that there was definitely some evidence and it was either ignored or jeopardized in some way to protect the criminal.

:clap1: :clap1:

Merry Christmas to you too.x

Asked by Mr Meiners about the child rapist he pardoned, Mr Bevin responded, "Which one?"
Mr Meiners had referred to Schoettle, who was sentenced to 23 years in prison in 2018 after being convicted on charges of rape, incest, sodomy and other sexual offenses.
The former governor commuted Schoettle's sentence on 9 December - his final day in office - allowing him to walk free after 19 months behind bars.
Schoettle will also be able to avoid registering as a sex offender, local media report.

...’which one..’..?....the people who are given so much power to help protect their children...are protecting those who abuse them..?...

...where would you even start with a broken system like that...:sad:..

i tell you what the problem is with this thread title and its the same in many threads. The emphasis is placed on political affiliation rather than the deed itself. People are individuals and responsible for their own behaviour.

....I don’t understand what you mean, Bots...the case..(..and many other cases...)...had already gone through the justice system and he was convicted and sentenced to a long term prison sentence...?...the governor issued a pardon and the child’s rapist was set free...

and the person who pardoned him is an individual, responsible for his own deeds and actions. We may as well have said human pardoned a man convicted of ... people are attaching labels for their own political agenda

Wasn't the evidence the kids word against his:shrug:

...but it has to have been a specific ‘human’...I couldn’t pardon a convicted child rapist and neither could you, Bots...his position is very specific and relevant to the story and what he’s done and what others in the system are finding unfathomable...
