Why child sex offenders like him being targeted by another inmates?
I am not saying he did not deserve it, but what could be the motivation behind it? Why they have the desire to kill people like him?
My dad told me something about another case a guy named Bernardo raped and tortured some innocent girls and all the criminals in the jail cell were swearing profanities at him and saying when he joined them in prison they would beat the crap out of him for hurting those innocent woman. Even criminals have a sense of justice and a desire to punish those who do wrong - often times the person in jail for killing somebody else had less heinous reasons - for example - maybe they murdered the guy who raped his sister - or maybe they murdered a guy who was threatening to kill his wife - or maybe they murdered their parents for sexually molesting them - or maybe they killed somebody when they were influenced by illegal drugs somebody snuck into their drink. My aunt owns a law firm in China and her husband helps her run it - he says not all murderers are like the crazy people you see on t. v. - some of them are very decent people who made one mistake under duress or extreme situations. This is why a lot of criminals beat up other criminals in prison out of anger at them for their crimes.
Some people who have committed crimes have lines they won't cross themselves like hurting children and many of them have children of their own or have been abused themselves. There are a lot of hurt people in prison that were abused as children. That's really not something they'd wish on another human being.
I did some prison time a when I was a teenager. Among inmates there’s Certain crimes that are unacceptable to have on your record if you’re in general population. If the guards or inmates find out someone comes in with bad paperwork like they’re a Child molestor or rapist that inmate is given a hit on sight green light meaning if any other inmate even sees them you have to beat them down or kill them. Most guys with bad charges choose to be in protective custody though which means they’re kept away from everyone else but their cellmates are also other creepy pedo’s.
If you have killed you get a higher rank in prison and more respect. Therefore some see it as an opportunity to to eliminate the universally undesirable to achieve higher respect, better treatment from other inmates.
thanks for the mho?
There's some truth to it, lol!
I think I have selected this like weeks ago, did you recently receive notification for it?
Yeah.

Many men in prison were sexually abused when they were children. This is their misdirected way of getting revenge on their childhood demon.
Because even the other prisoners have enough ethics to never do that disgusting shit. Some of those prisoners have probably involved themselves in criminal acts to feed their own starving kids back home and they do have feelings and sympathy. Which pedophiles don't at all.
Did you know that once two thieves stole this man's laptop and as when they turned it on they found a lot of child porn content in it and then they handed the laptop to the police and got the owner arrested. So uh yeah... Criminals can also have morals. It's not entirely a black and white thing.
He was in a maximum security men's prison 'that holds "some of the most difficult and dangerous criminals in the country"' So to my eyes, they are all the same, all committed heinous crimes.
However, there seems to be some kind of prison life hierachy going on I'm not really aware of.
Could be that too.
because they are often weak and pathetic they are seenas a much easier target than big hard murderers who are more of a threat... i was listening to a radio 4 news piece on it just a couple of days ago and it was a long term prisoner who said what i just said...
Meaning paedos are easier to kill...
But why the need to kill while doing time in prison? What do the killer get from doing so? Isn't that going to increase his time / punishment?
its dog eat dog in prison and its down to vioulence that they gain poewr... the inmate was saying most paedos tend to be weedy little men while murderers tend to allready be at the top end of the power struggle so yes paedos make an easy target and because they are so hated the power gains from attacking them are huge... the stabbing was an extreme case but in general such attacks go un reported within the prison and even when prison officers are aware im sure its the case that many times they will look the other way because they hate paedos too
Some people have been molested or had family members molested and watched as it destroyed their lives. Some inmates are in prison due to not getting the help they needed after being molested themselves. Some turn to drugs, others turn to letting out anger on innocent people and some become offenders themselves. That's why they kill them, to try and stop the cycle.
Are you serious? A child can’t even attempt to defend themselves at all against a grown ass disgusting perv. Whereas another person although still sad, has at least a bit more of a possibility to fight off a rapist/predator and such...
It’s disgusting
Well my late maternal Grand-dad was former Deputy Sheriff
he once told us , If you go to any prison and word gets out
that you hurt/ kill a child , woman , your as good as dead you
won't last long in prison. Now if you kill a Police officer. Deputy
sheriff you are considered a Hero , the prisoners would leave
you alone. So see it all depends. Being a pedophile your going
in there cause most likely you molested or raped a child so
that is why you would or could possibly end up dead.
Because there's a difference in killing someone and taking advantage of younger children. Even if someone is a murderer, they still likely have children or have loved one who do. It's our natural instinct to protect the young as they're so helpless.
We tend to forget that criminals are human and have human emotions. They justify their actions for some reason or another. Murder, assault theft, drugs all have justifications behind them but when it comes to this what could possibly be the justification behind it?
That is a valid reason, although there is also no justification for serial killers who enjoy murdering people and necrophilia too...
It's not that their are justifications for the crimes its that the inmates can justify it. A serial killer isn't going to be that bad to a gang member who has probably killed and tortured aswell. A necropheliac is just crazy.
Look at people on the outside and how popular serial killers are, they get marriage proposals and slews of fans. That doesn't happen to paedophiles
Because its vile. Somehow my exs brother and rapist from elementary school junior high and high school Austin davis who made incest and pedophile pornographic material of her sent to the fucking school board she was known as his and christophers pet slave didn't go to prison and is still involved with her with the help of sinterpol and her family and a lot of shitty people who fucked with me and protected my pedophile my third cousin Adam jared miller who made me into violently humiliating pedophile pornographic material at 14
Im not trying to be a dick, but punctuation saves a person's willingness to read you know... couldn't even finish it.
Grammar Nazi. Himmleresque fascist
Not normally, no. If it bothers you, speak like a human being.
Mrs always been this way rapist and child molesters will get killed in general population prisons as soon as the head of the race finds out what they're there for. These days do you have to carry your paperwork that shows while you're there else you're probably going to end up with an ass whooping Right off the bat. Second thing is because statistic show that once they do it once they're going to do it again no matter if they do 20 years or more in DOC it's fucked up that people's heads are that screwed up to where they could go and do that again. So the inmates feel it's der duty to make sure it can't happen again same with rape. Here and AZ child molesters in rapist have their own prison yards where their all together because they can't be put in general
because pedophilia is something disgusting, they are using innocent children for their sexual pleasures, just cause inmates are criminals doesn't mean they dont have nor care about children or animals and so on, a lot of inmates have children and they wouldn't tolerate a pedophile sharing the same cell, what else can i say 🤷♂️
Because when people read or get to know this almost all get angry i mean really angry (cuz their kids ).
I once heard a paeopholi went to prison & in de first or second night they broke into he's sell beat him really hard, to finish they shuved pipes down in to (I don't want to say it but u know where) needless to say he died that day. There was something with the guards they opend the gates or helped beating him up, I can't remember wich one
Because children are innocent and vulnerable, require our protection. Even criminals know that.
Also if pedophiles get beat up its not uncommon that prison guards take longer to get to the scene for obvious reasons - which surely doesn't help the mortality rate of imprisoned pedophiles.
Pedophiles and rapists are often targeted in prisons.
My dad spent 30 days in jail when he was younger (false arrest). He said while he was there the guards brot in a known rapist and locked him in a high capacity cell with about a dozen other guys, then the guards left. The rest of the inmate beat the rapist to death, then the guards came back and took his body out of the cell.
It is true sex offenders are marked and targeted by other inmates, the question is... why?
I think most criminals try to justify their crimes as necessary evils, they believe they were desperate and didn't have other options.
But sex offenders are a different kind of criminal, their crimes can't be justified in the eyes of other criminals.
Paedophiles are most likely to survive. Yes they are targeted by other inmates just because in prison they are always picking on the weak. Usually they are just easy targets
Most likely to survive? Respectfully I have to disagree... They say paedos won't last long in prison, if other inmates find out why he is in prison and his identity, he is as good as dead.
As I've been following Richard Huckle case (because the crimes he committed close to home -- I don't pay much attention to those committing crimes in their own country) I fear he might escape.
And to my surprise, he was stabbed to death by inmate this week. I'm relieved he is gone but wonder why he killed him.
Well because as you find out, many people that are in prison were abused sexually. so it goes without saying that their gonna direct their own anger at what happened to them onto the pedophile in prison. Honestly i can see why they hate pedophiles besides that though. it takes a special kind of evil to cause any kind of harm to a child. our jobs as adults are to protect children at any and all cost. not hurt them!. that's the kind of shit that causes people mental scarring for life.
People who abuse kids are seen as the lowest of the low, especially in prison. can't say i have any sympathy with him.
No, no, I'm saying saying anyone should have sympathy for him.
I'm thinking more from the killer perspective. Why targeting a paedo and how killing him is of any benefit to him? What does the killer gain from it?
Respect from other prisoners. A sense of justice for the victims.
Prison is a unique environment, what goes on inside isn't the same as in open society
In Chicago, they actually have to place them in their own sections. Personally, I only sympathise with the peadophiles who haven't done anything. They need help, and try and get help, but its hard because of the stigma. However, once they've crossed the line, they deserve to be put away.
Question was about prison, but you're right. There is a difference between an abiser and a peadophile. Abusers should be locked up. Someone born with an attraction to children but who understand it's unethical to act on it need support. Societies myopic veiw on the subject drives people to hide in the shadows when they need help.
Honestly, who doesn't hate pedophiles? Most of them are basically mentally sick and there is little hope prison will make them better so I think that's why they are more likely to get killed. Besides, they target children.
Why they are not being given death sentence by the law I wonder?
A lot of people in prison have families believe it or not, so they are hated with a passion, don't forget some people we lock up, are actual people like you and me.
