Only trusted Pedophile is a DEAD Pedophile

The ONLY Pedophile that can be trusted is a DEAD PEDOPHILE!  

              

Obviously, the State of New York, still hasn’t gotten it right, statutorily, or this sentence would have been far worse!  The reporter doesn’t say, but this Judge must have been constrained by limitations on his sentence.

The question I would ask His Honor, would be, “Do you really THINK, for even a moment, that this pedophile, whom you admit is ’masquerading as a human being,’ is going to be cured, or even a “smidgeon” better, in 27 to 29 years?  

It’s so obvious to any observer, over the past twenty years of this kind of criminal behavior, that the Courts are far too limited in their ability to deal with the issue on a realistic basis, and be able to live up to their charge to “Protect Society, through the Rule of Law.”  Here’s the story:

Syracuse, NY ---- With his head down, not looking up to make eye contact with anyone, a Syracuse, New York man learned his punishment for raping a two-year-old and a four-year-old in 2010.

“I’m going to impose a sentence that will put you in jail for close to 30 years… but you have sentenced these two children to a life sentence. They will have to live with the effect of your conduct for the rest of their lives,” Judge Anthony Aloi told 33-year-old Ronald Clark in Onondaga County Court Thursday morning.

Clark will spend the next 27 to 29 years in prison, the maximum sentence. He was sentenced to 25 years for two-counts of rape, and will serve a consecutive sentence of two to four years for possessing child pornography, which investigators found on his computer.

Last December, Clark admitted to raping the two toddlers as his wife, Sierra Clark, held them down. This happened sometime between April and the end of August in 2013. Assistant District Attorney Jeff Schiano says the case against Sierra will go to court soon. For now, she sits in jail on rape and sex abuse charges. In court Thursday, Schiano said he’s never seen a case so disgusting and disturbing as the case of Ronald Clark.

“I’m convinced he is less than a human being. His acts are absolutely unbelievable to me and they are unforgivable. The rape of a two and four-year-old while another person holds those children down is absolutely unforgivable,” Schiano said. That’s a sentiment Judge Aloi agrees with.

“I’ve been involved with the criminal justice system for a number of years, and this is truly one of the most vile and disgusting cases that has come across my desk that I can ever remember,” Aloi said before reading the sentence. “The only word that I can use to describe the acts, are that they are ‘vile’. I don’t know if ‘vile’ even comes close to what it really is.”

In a statement to the court, Schiano briefly acknowledged an apology Clark sent to the District Attorney’s Office to the victims.

“I received your apology for your cold, monstrous acts. On behalf of the people of the State of New York and on behalf of the victims of this case, your apology is not accepted. You should never ever be allowed to breathe the same air as those two innocent children breathe.”

In an interview with CNY Central, Schiano would not comment on the content of the letter, but he says the young victims – now about five and seven years old – are “doing great.”

“I can tell you, those two little girls, while he could steal their innocence, he couldn’t touch their spirits,” Schiano said.

Schiano hopes this case will spotlight the seriousness of child pornography, saying it is a warning sign, sometimes indicative of a bigger issue.

“Possession of child pornography isn’t always just possessing child pornography, people will actually act on these things. We’ve seen it twice in a couple of years,” he says. “The bigger issue for me as a prosecutor, when we walk into the courtroom and you know, there’s this mentality that sometimes in some courts, ‘They’re just possessing it, they’re just looking at it.’”

“Well, Ronald Clark wasn’t just looking at it. Ronald Clark acted on it. And we’ve seen other people do the same,” said Schiano.

In response to this story, one person wrote “Ronald Clark should be castrated and put into general population in prison with the tattoo “toddler rapist” across his arms. While the disgusting excuse for a mother, we’ll call her a birth canal donor, should receive a full hysterectomy and be locked up alone in a dark room with the sounds of babies crying and babies screaming looping day after day. The two of them will be getting off easily in a comfy cell with daily food, exercise and access to TV’s and books at their leisure. Thanks prison system for rewarding the deepest evil with distractions.”

I’m sorry, but I cannot condone such behavior, as this person suggests; and I feel that if we, as a society, were vindictive in this manner, we become no different than those whom we condemn.  But, that only exacerbates the issue!  Stay with me, here, . . .

Discussion

In reality, if we can just put all the “Warm and Fuzzies” away for a couple minutes, thereby stashing the “political correctness” of this problem; we can have an intelligent discussion around the issues of the heinous crimes committed by those afflicted with the condition we call, “pedophilia.”

Foundational information: 

There has NEVER been a documented case of a cured pedophile, and with all of the evidence indicating that they know who they are, and they have NO DESIRE to change their habits, frequently admitting that they are hopelessly addicted to the sexual desires for children, (and, more specifically, only certain types of children, as each of these people have a set of “preferences,” to which they will go, if the opportunity to groom their victim, presents itself), and those easily identified as “the most-vulnerable among us.”  Since all that is true, why would we NOT consider this among the most heinous crimes that CAN be committed, and place a statutorily mandatory DEATH SENTENCE on the ones convicted of such a crime?

   

Even though there are myriads of arguments to the contrary, it appears NONE of them concern themselves with even so much as the POTENTIAL for future victims, should these people be allowed to continue to share the oxygen, the common sense approach must be to do an analysis, without emotion for the criminals, and with all the emotion we can muster, for the victims. 

These are not crimes that a person recovers from, or heals up, once victimized.  A mind fracture is the result, and unlike a broken leg, or a bad cut requiring stitches, or even a gunshot wound, the mind fracture never fully heals, and it leaves tracks on the behavior of the victim for the remainder of their lives.

Both “Pedophiles” and “Child Molesters” have been finitely defined by the American Psychiatric Association, (APA), for the purposes of supporting their various positions on the matter, -- which ALL involve the financial well-being of their members and practitioners.  I cannot find significant differences, when it comes to the final outcomes, therefore I lump them together as “pedophiles.”  

Certainly, from the victim’s perspective, there are no differences!  To allow the Court to give the Defense Attorney the leeway to the introduction of anything perceived as “exculpatory,” by allowing an expert to tell the jury that the “accepted definition of a ‘true pedophile” is a person who can ONLY have a sexual attraction to a person under a specific age, and cannot carry on a sexual relationship with any adult person, based solely upon the criteria of ‘age” is far beyond the rational purpose of the Court, and asks the jury to parse this case FAR BEYOND all common sense, and viewpoint of the victim, (to say nothing, whatsoever, of future victims). 

It gives a person the sense that the whole Courtroom scenario is done for one reason, and one reason, ONLY – the perpetuation of a financial gain of the Judge and the various attorneys, clerks, paralegals, and others employed within this BROKEN Criminal Justice System.

Judges CANNOT be limited, when it comes to passing sentence on these creeps.  Society needs to hold Judges accountable for weak-kneed sentences, by asking whether a judge sympathetic to a pedophile/child-molester may have similar tendencies, themselves, (which other reasoning makes any sense)?

We must, as concerned citizens, as well as former victims, make contact with the various state legislatures, by finding a legislator who understands this issue from a psychological perspective, and convince him/her to introduce legislation that negates the current methodology by the Criminal Courts, and allow for a statutory acceptance of the REALITY of these kinds of sexual crimes, and the life-long damage done to the most innocent people among us!

We must ALSO ask the legislatures to exempt the criminals convicted of these crimes from any kind of "Good Time Credit" program available to other criminals, allowing them to gain a level of time off their sentences, based on behavior, participation, etc.
