    What about when he respawns?

    Say what you want about america but they certainly know how to give out jail time - poor kid, if it happened here he'd be let off!

    That is shocking. The poor boy :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,967 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Once police discovered how serious the boy's injuries were, they began to push his mother and her boyfriend Rocky Donadio, then a soldier at Fort Sill. The narrative then changed.....

    Seems the mother didn't immediately come forward and explain what happened, instead different stories were told.

    Maybe she was afraid to speak up.
    But if she slowed down the investigation deliberately she should be charged too

    Hopefully he is murdered in prison on day 74y364d.

    I know, but he wouldn't "get let off" either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,565 ✭✭✭✭steddyeddy


    Im glad he got 75 years but bear in mind he could get out earlier with good behaviour or apeal ect.

    The child involved has the life sentence of trying to heal this trauma for the rest of his life.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,898 ✭✭✭✭seanybiker


    Jesus that's horrendous. Hopefully your man gets raped repeatedly in prison

    Dunno about that. He has basically ruined this kids life. Sounds pretty serious from the outset. Money can be paid back. Organs/mental damage - not so much.

    I would honestly say he would be out of prison by 10 years.

    It says not eligible for parole before 85% complete

    Lol - not THAT shocked by the inhumane, violent treatment so then... ;)

    Been following this story and what strikes me is that more often than not videogames get the blame, in spite of the fact that the man is trained by the American government to kill people.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,759 ✭✭✭✭dlofnep


    In Ireland - 5 years with 2 years suspended. Out beating up children after 3 years.

    If the child is in a permanent situation where he has to be connected to a machine - I'd say 75 years is just. Let the bastard rot in jail.

    There may be something to the game connection. I don't play GTA or FPS games so my crime/murder count is still zero. However I play a lot of FIFA and there is now broken windows up and down my street.

    Besides why was he even in America? He'd have been better off in the Middle East killing little brown people in order to make the world free.

    I remember playing "violent" games like Quake, Half Life etc when I was around 9/10 years old. Still, the gore in those said games does not compel me to walk outside and murder people. Honestly, I would probably off myself following an incident like that. Horrific.

    Christ. That poor child.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,305 ✭✭✭Chuchoter


    Jesus Christ thats horrendous. That boys life must be horrible, I can't even fathom living like that. He has no digestive system. If he lives more than a few years, he will never ever leave the hospital again. There really aren't punishments bad enough for that man.

    Unbelievable....... they still haven't converted to metric in the States yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,565 ✭✭✭✭steddyeddy


    in fairness guys the government, gaurds and judges in this country have protected child abusers in the past i havent much confidence that things here have changed.

    something like 8 years with the last 2 suspended would be a ''let off''


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,748 ✭✭✭Dermighty


    Hopefully the c*nt will die in prison.

    I get what you're saying, but you don't need training to stomp on someones stomach either... You just have to not give a f*ck about them really.
