Recommended: The link between alcohol and crime

A seven year old girl was found half-naked, with over 20 stab wounds, behind a washroom. Three men were brought into questioning after a witness claims that the three men were seen drinking at the time of the murder. At the station, police finally got answers after one of the three men broke down, confessing that he killed the girl, while another admitted to raping her. The man who admitted to stabbing the girl added that he had no memory of raping her but realized that he had, in fact, stabbed her to death. He claims that he was high on shabu and had been drinking for the past three days.

The three men had brutally stabbed a seven year old girl to death before raping her, committing a serious crime. They even had the audacity to dump her body in a restroom like she was a piece of meat. The three men have no reason to rape a young girl, who is only in first grade, and frankly did not deserve it. …show more content…

For instance, one of the three men could not even recall the crime that he committed due to his high and drunken state. Whether his actions when high or drunk is justifiable is a completely different situation. In this case, his actions left a negative impact and had even cost someone their life.

The fact that they were drinking or high on substances does not disregard the fact that they murdered and raped an innocent seven year old girl. The authorities should charge them with exemplary punishments for the crime they committed and offer help for their addiction by sending them to rehab or seeing a

  • Nina Golgowski's On Punishment And Teen Killers

    1435 Words  | 3 Pages

    Most people don 't look at every aspect of a crime. They don 't think about everyone that was affected, other than the victim. In her article "On Punishment and Teen Killers", Jennifer Jenkins explains how her younger sister was taken from her by a murderer who shot and killed her. In her article she states, "So few who work on the juvenile offender side can truly understand what the victims of their crimes sometimes go through. Some never recover." Jenkins is explaining her personal experience of losing her younger sister to help others understand what the families of the victim have to deal with for the rest of their lives. She brings a point of view that most people have never been in because they 've never experienced what it 's like to have a loved one taken away from you by murder. In her story she also states, "If brain development were the reason, then teens would kill at roughly the same rates all over the world." Many people believe that the supreme court needs to be more lenient on juveniles because their brain is not fully developed as that of an adult, but brain development cannot be used as an excuse because as Jenkins explains, the teens would be killing at the same rate all over the world. Jenkins also brings up a good point about how the US as a whole needs to step up to prevent these crimes from happening. Jenkins states, "We in America have to own to this particular problem, with weapons so easily available to our youth, and the violence-loving culture we raise them. She is trying to bring awareness to society that America is also at fault for these crimes. Furthermore, she also explains why life sentencing is not as cruel as some may feel it is when she says, "… a life sentencing still allows a great deal of good living to be done, even from behind bars, far more than these teen killers gave to our murdered love

    657 Words  | 2 Pages

    It was Labor Day weekend, 1997, at the University of Kentucky in Lexington, and Holly Dunn's world seemed full of possibilities. She was a popular sorority sister, and the 20-year-old had a new boyfriend, a theater major named Chris Maier. That August night, the couple took a midnight stroll to the railroad tracks and kissed under the stars. Suddenly a man appeared; he was holding what looked like an ice pick. Terrified, Chris offered him money. "No, I don't want that," the man said as he tied up the couple. A moment later he picked up a rock and smashed it against Chris's skull, killing him; he then raped Holly and bludgeoned her with a wooden board, breaking her jaw and eye socket.

  • West Memphis 3: Wrongfully Accused?

    1887 Words  | 4 Pages

    On May 5th, 1993 three eight year old boys were reported missing in West Memphis, Arkansas. The boys were found the next day, hog tied in a wooded area called “Robin Hood Hills”. After the case had been “thoroughly” investigated, the West Memphis Police announced on the news that they had found the murderers, pointing fingers at Damien Echols, Jessie Misskelley and Jason Baldwin, three teenagers who were different from the norm in West Memphis, making it easy for them to be accused. I believe the boys were wrongfully accused of this crime because there is a lack of evidence in the case pointing to the boys, and the crime just seems to convenient for these three to actually pull off.

  • Integrative Shaming Theory

    1162 Words  | 3 Pages

    Apart from the apparent accident, victims may fear that the first crime will reoccur in the future. The fear, confusion, and hatred affecting accident victims, coupled with inaction by the judicial system may provoke others to also engage in drunk driving. Sometimes, the defense attorneys front a rationale that the suspect has mental issues and thus their actions cannot be counted on them because of psychological impairment (Karjalainen, Lintonen, Joukamaa, & Lillsunde, 2013). The dismissal of cases of cognitive dissonance increases the chance of the offenders repeating the action. Furthermore, even the courts know and classify these individuals as mentally ill patients in need of treatment and management of their

  • Gender Inequality In 'Out In The Night'

    1269 Words  | 3 Pages

    The prosecutor for the case claimed the attacker was unprovoked. The New York Police Department labeled the women as a gang. The media, police and justice system treated these women based on their intersectionality. Their gender, race and sexual identity were a dominant part by everyone who told the story. In courts’ verdict was that Terrain, Brown, Hill and Johnson were guilty. They were all considered as state property for the entirety of their sentence. While in prison, they couldn’t wear female boxers or shorts under their pants, which satisfies the gender norm for women. All of their time ranged from three to eleven years. They all tried to repeal their cases. Terrain did two years. Brown took a plea after two years. Renatta got out after three and a half years and lost custody of her son while in prison. she regained custody eight months after being released. The reason the jury convicted them for gang assault charges, is because the judge on the case explained that gang is like an orchestra, everyone is involved as an accessory. There was evidence withheld by the court and the media. That the police radioed that there was no blood in the stabbing and it wasn’t an action of a gang. The wound that was pictured by the news was not from the stabbing, but from exploratory surgery from a hernia found while in the hospital. In fact, the actual stab wound was very small and not
