2. Yes.

The trial is big news here.

The two suspects who did it are going on trial. I believe the first day of Steven Hayes' trial was either today or yesterday, with Dr. Petit in attendance.

6. 11 yo daughter raped, wife raped, then
11 yo and 17 yo daughters burned alive while tied to their beds in an attempt to hide the burglary attempt.

Horrific case.

9. "...nobody was supposed to get hurt, but things got out of control"...
I'm somewhat heartened by that.
It seems that monster's defense isn't really trying too hard.

11. When the police saw him, Hayes was wearing Michaela Petit's
Ms. Porters (A Private School) hat, and laughing out loud as the house he exited from burned. I can't think of a worse piece of shit undeserving of life than Hayes (not an opinion on the DP, but a statement).

All of this is equally true for Komisarjevsky.

10. This is where I part company with many of my DU brothers and sisters.
I want those fucking animals dead. And I want them to suffer, at least a fraction of what those beautiful, innocent, girls and their mother suffered.

13. Poor man.. how would you ever put your life back together...
Edited on Tue Sep-14-10 06:03 PM by hlthe2b
after that? I'm betting he is suffering survivor's guilt beyond comprehension. I hope he gets some help.

14. I would not be surprised if the defendants try to claim that Dr Petit was complicit in the horror...
it's not as if they possess any decency at all. They have nothing to lose and seem to enjoy pouring on the hurt.

15. I vaguely remember when this happened...
and the initial media reporting certainly hinted at that being a possibility... While clearly that is not the case, but desperation might lead them to such an ugly "hail Mary" effort.
