  1. Whenever I read about these kinds of stories I am always saddened by the apparent ruination of the lives of everyone involved. I’m pretty naive’ about the world and, in many ways, I’m glad that I am. I cannot imagine any child, as they come along in the world, thinking to themselves, “I want to grow up to abuse a woman, then rape and murder her, and then I want to change my sexual identity and then be executed.” What a world.

  2. It is kinda disgusting to hear the media openly lie. It is like listening to a person who fled the Soviet Union telling how they would hear reports of bumper crops during a famine and know it wouldn’t be corrected. This man killed a woman, he was never and will be a woman. The media adds insult to injury.

    Hopefully he got straight with the Lord before he crossed that bridge.

    But – in terrestrial terms – he got what he deserved – though far later than necessary.
