Who cares about this low life. They should of let him die a slow and painful death. Save us some tax money and let the other prisoners kill him.

In regards to the last two posts - AMEN!!!!!!

The mutt was sentenced to 70 plus years in prison. That's 70 plus years that we don't have to support him.

isn't this the same broad who has asked all state agencies to "do what the families of CT are doing themselves", making sacrifices and cutting spending??? How much is this little "investigation" going to cost the state??? And Jodi, how bout you foot the bill??

Why are you wasting tax payer money on this? Probably because you're afraid this dead guy's family will now sue the state.
At least we don't have to pay for his jail expenses anymore.
Jodi, Here's a thought. Don't bother.

No, really...it's interesting how repeat violent offenders who brutalize and butcher CT lawabiding taxpaying citizens can be released again and again with little attention from our State reps. It is fabulous that these same violent offenders get chance after chance while their victims have to live in fear they will be out to do it again to them or someone else. We wonder why the preventable tragedies of Cheshire, New Britain and countless other cities occur when we have State reps who feel "fair"treatment of offenders outweighs the rights and safety of hardworking, law abiding and taxpaying citizens.

Boy, you got that right...once again here goes mrs afterthefact. Does anyone in politics understand that leadership gets things done not after the fact investigations. Our Gov. doesnt seem to know anything about leadership....If here chief of staff would put down the chicken wings and cheeseburgers for a few minutes maybe something would get done.

Surviving victims and family members of violent crimes committed in our communities should be able to sue the State when recidivist violent offenders are set free again in our society after they have already molested, violently raped, invaded homes and/or murdered someone.Does anyone else see the glareing issue in CT that offenders are give chance after chance to re-offend and our state reps are allowing them to be released time and time again to brutalize the rest of us????
