from the link:

(CBS4) DETROIT A Florida prosecutor who allegedly flew to Michigan to have a sexual encounter with a 5-year-old girl has reportedly tried to hang himself in his jail cell.

John D.R. Atchison was being held on federal child sex solicitation charges at the Sanilac County Jail, 75 miles north of Detroit.

When a cell mate shouted that Atchison trying to hang himself with a sheet, guards stepped in and stopped him.

Atchison, who is an assistant U.S. attorney in Pensacola, allegedly went to Michigan to meet what he thought was the mother of a 5-year-old girl with whom he arranged to have sex. In reality, the woman was a detective working undercover as part of an online sex sting operation.

7. Oh No...............

Let him waller for years in the "Jailhouse Sandbox" with his friends! Much more satisfying.

3. Why the hell did they stop him???

That piece of shit deserves to die... horribly.

4. kinda makes any Not Guilty

plea look silly now, doesn't it? Still looking for the (R) in the article 'cause you know if he was a (D) it'd be there front and center in the first sentence and referred to often in the article.

11. there was a thread on this guy a few nights ago and someone

said they found him on the voter roll, regestered as a republican.

5. What a sick man this guy is.

A 5 year old. Totally disgusting.

What the hell is wrong with people today, anyway? Is there no sanity left? :(

6. Good, it means it's sinking in that raping children

is wrong. It means it's sinking in that the scumbag has destroyed trust within his family and wrecked his career. It's sinking in that raping little kids has consequences for somebody besides the little kids.

May he have a long and miserable life being on the receiving end of what he's claimed to have doled out to children for a long time. May that make him understand what he has done.

8. He should've tried harder.

He f*cked that up, too.

9. Too bad there were guards.

10. The ONLY reason I'm glad he did not succeed...

...is that, based on the messages he sent, he has done this to many other children. It would be good if law enforcement and social services could find out who they are and help them, getting them away from toxic environments (it is often parents or relatives who set up these "encounters"), and getting them the therapy they will most certainly need.

Other than that, yes, this guy is an all-time scumbag and deserves to die. I'm against the death penalty, but not against slime like this doing themselves in.

12. How many of the kids he's probably fucked over the years will kill themselves?

Anyone?

13. I'm sorry. I can't wrap my brain around this crime.

I don't even want to think about it. :-(

14. Too bad they stopped him, was my first reaction so I'll go with that.

15. This guy is an assistant US DA

I know damn well he has to have at least _heard_ of the to catch a predator show.

And yet he did something so incredibly stupid as to arrange an assignation over the internet.

There's more wrong with this guy than simply being a pervert.
