The piece of shit did the state a favor as they don't have to house and feed him for the rest of his life. Good riddance!
Difficult one, i'm glad hes gone, but on the other hand if he was in his cell for life thinking about the sick things hes done for the rest of the life, to me thats bigger punishment. Just glad the girls were found, going to be one long difficult journey for them to get back to normal life. Just watched an item on the news about it and his pathetic display at saying 'sorry' to the victims. A joke, he was sorry he was caught. Unbelievable some of these stories, in Europe Joseph Fritzl did something similar but with his daughter, unbelievable crime.
I wonder of other inmates had something to do with it. People convicted on kidnapping & rape like this in high profile cases are normally despised by other inmates. There's a decent chance they treated him badly, so he might have decided he didn't want to live the rest of his days like that and ended it. Guy is a scumbag, so I feel no pity for him.
