Crime is everywhere. Police commit crimes, Preachers Politicians, Teachers, etc. Do you think that only saints join the military?  Some people are just freaken crazy! Thats not the "military" as a whole, no more then all teachers have sex with 12 year old students or all presidents have sex in the oval office.

And I guess you interpreted that as Middle east style execution!!! In my mind the generalization you show in your question proves that you can be unfair to other people. A rapist deserves to be executed in the worst style, but that does not mean that all Middle Eastern people and countries apply the same method.\nAre you trying to prove how savage Middle Eastern people are? well, generalizing the brutality of one incident on all members of a group is not really a convincing way.\nAnd although I do not get what Saddam has to do with the above incident since he was jailed while this incident happened and he could not have possibly ordered it. I believe he deserves to die for killing so many people unfairly, but I also believe there should be a stop to the Iraqi and American killing out there... too many lives lost, and most of them guiltless.

First of all, my father, for abusing me physically and mentally, and for how he's beginning to do the same to my younger brother (although I'm doing my best to protect him, I'm afraid it's going to come to calling the police if it continues. I don't want my brother to end up with an eating disorder and self-injury issues like I did).\n\nSecondly, a kid that my boyfriend used to be friends with who was recently arrested for raping his younger brother more than one hundred and fifty times. Nobody had any idea, but that poor kid has been suffering for so long- I hope the guy gets it in the a** for the rest of his life.\n\nThird, George W. Bush, for starting an unfounded war that has lead to the death of thousands and thousands of people.\n\nOther than that, I really don't know. I'll leave the last two up to you, okay? :)\n\nSorry for this novel of an answer! ^^;;

yes......... it has little to do with us, believe it or not...\n\nhe was found guilty in an Iraqi court by Iraqi people and the law in Iraq is the death penalty for these sort of crimes.... its was his country, his rules... if he was tried in the UK, there is no way he could have had the death penalty

i am a big supporter of our military but if they commit cold murder, they should face the punishment. war is a stressful place but we cant allow ourselves to be criminals.

Its happened ..really as recently as first gulf war...Iraqi American kid was visiting sick relative in Iraq and he was drafted and thown in the front lines.. I think he even had a Chicago T shirt on when he surrendered. He was REAL happy to make it to American lines ok and they were really surprised when they captured him.

He married a girl (I think her name was Aisha) at six and consummated the marriage at 9. Because Muhammod did this, some Muslim men practice this today. \n\nThis should be condemned. A child's body is not ready for sex at that age. Poor little girl.

Part of the following chain message:\n\n\none night these five girls were having a sleepover when they heard choas at the end of her street. they went down to find out what was happening. they learned that a woman was raped and the man was on the loose. so they quickly run home and bolt everything down. everything settles down for a while then they started hearing wierd noises coming from outside. they let their minds go wild so they got scared and hid inside a closet. the man was really outside and found a window that had a broken bolt. he krept in quietly. the girls were scared crapless. he walked into the room and opened the closet, the girls screamed and ran into seperate directions. four of the girls went downstairs and locked the cellar door, that was right above the bathroom. he caught the fifth girl and took her into the bathroom, raped her, and skinned her alive. her friends heard her die that night but couldnt do anything about. they listened to her sratching the door to get out. in the morning when he had fleed, the remaining went into the bathroom. there ingraved into the wall was her message:"how could you have let me die" they looked up to get the tears out of their eyes and saw her flesh dangling from the knife that skinned her. if you dont repost this the man will skin you alive too, because they havent caught him yet. and the girl will make sure you will die, so she can pass on the tale\n\nA girl died in 1933 by a homicidal murderer.He buried her in the ground when she was still alive.The murderer chanted "Toma soto balca" as he buried her.Now that you have read the chant, you will meet this little girl. In the middle of the night she will be on your ceiling. She will suffocate you like she was suffocated.If you post this, she will not bother you.Your kindness will be rewarded..

Not a good syllogism.  Yes the US IS guilty of warcrimes. Yes the war was totally under false pretenses and yes the Iraqis are not better off today.  HOWEVER, in my wildest dreams I can not vusualize how Humpty Dumpty could be put back together. \n\nwe are kind of stuck with this Kubuki Theater and for good or ill, ( I think ill ) , its slowly, inexorably moving forward.\n\nHowerver the US has no legitimacy in this dog and kangroo court show.

As the defendant is already on bail for another offence of violence, if he intends to plead guilty to that offence, the smart thing to do would be to bring the matter forward so that he can enter his guilty plea and be sentenced for both these offences together. If he is sentenced to a term of imprisonment, there is a good chance of being given concurrent sentences.  \n\nIf he is given a community sentence now and then brought back to court for the assault on the police officer, then in practical terms the court would find itself unable to impose a prison sentence for the assault on a police officer, as it is bad sentencing policy to send someone to prison while he is serving such a sentence unless he has been brought to court for being in breach of the terms of his sentence. Similarly, if he is sentenced to prison now, he would not be available for a community service in relation to the other offence and a term of imprisonment would have to be imposed for that too.\n\nIn view of what the magistrates have indicated, they would have to be persuaded very hard not to impose a prison sentence.  I think it's highly likely.

I'm not really sure about Michigan law, but I am a former Criminal Investigator from a district attorney's office in New York and I can explain the prosecution and conviction process here and maybe it will relate.  There are different levels of rape (degrees) and the prsecution and conviction depend on this.  If you forcibly rape someone it carries a higher penalty then the the 18 yr. old boy who has sex with his 16 yr. old girlfriend.  Because 16 is not deemed old enough to consent even if she says "yes" it's still rape, but that's not as serious as forcable rape.  If the defendant has prior criminal history, especially in the same type of activities, it will bring a bigger punishment.  The prosecutor has to provide the evidence and prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant did in fact commit this rape.  If there is no plea bargain and the case goes to trial and the defendant loses, he will get the maximum sentence allowed by law, basically for wasting the courts time.  A conviction means you have been found guilty of the crime either by a jury or by an admission.  It's a formal charge entered by the courts.  Being arrested and charged does not mean the same as a conviction.  You have to be found guilty in a court of law to have a conviction.  I hope this helps.  I'm sorry I can't give you minimum and maximum sentences in Michigan, I just don't know the answer to that.  Every state is different.

250,000 Iraqis have been murdered by the barbaric American troops since the 2003 invasion. Most of them are civilians, women and children. Therefore by the Bush administrations own 'standards' you have committed genocide. I don't know about you but I do not like to be partially responsible for such war crimes, whether 250,000 deaths is genocide or not, it is an unforgivable crime. As citizens in a "democratic, freedom loving" country you should take some responsibility for the actions of your elected barbaric governments.

this is a deep question and needs details i dont have. so it will be better to ask a scholar.\ni just wanna comment on the rape issue. first of all the 4 witnesses is for the adultery case not rape.\n\nrape victims are victims and their statement is automatically accepted unless there were clear signs of Lying. \nthe rape victim gets no punishment al all, why should her? the rapist get the same punishment as adultery. the punishment differs if he was married or not married. if the Rapist is married i believe he gets the death penalty but if he's not he gets lashed I'm not sure how many times.\n\n5-sex with a young girl within marriage who is mature enough to get married religiously speaking is not forbidden in any religion. it's not accepted in our society now adays but back in the days that was normal as long as it's marriage.\n\nbut if the child was raped then again punishment will be as for rape.\n\nnot at all, why would i insult you thanks for asking this good question. \nShariah laws are a lot and complicated and need STUDY. the average Muslim doesn't have all the answers when it comes to shariah laws that's why Muslims consult scholars on those matters.\n\nyou can ask a scholar on any Islamic website and i hope you get the answers you are looking for.\n\ntry this website\nhttp://www.islamtomorrow.com/'\n\npeace.

Your words imply guilt. Have you convicted her? If so, on what evidence?

I haven't heard of him raping a little girl. I heard an allegation against him for giving a woman benadryl and supposedly sexually assaulting her. I would hope that neither of these things are true. He seems like a really geniunely nice person but many people quilty of horrid things seemed like nice people to their victims prior to their attack. It would saddened me greatly if it were true. Mankind itself is beginning to terribly disappoint me. Soceity is in a terrible moral dillema.
