Andy,

Maybe the guy is disturbed. Maybe the guy has always wanted a family of his own but just couldn't have one for one reason or another. Maybe he thought he could give the boys a better home. Who knows. There are a lot of maybes.

Yes he is guilty of kidnapping, but that doesn't necessarily mean he should get the death penalty. Now, if he is guilty of sexual abuse, he should be killed. Don't get me wrong, I am for the death penalty, but I think we have to be a little slower than pulling the trigger.

My comparison to the Duke case wasn't in the way you are reading it. The comparison was to show you that first impressions are not always the right ones. If the mob were to have its way at the beginning of that case, the boys would have been dead. How about the Jean Bene Ramse (I know for sure I butchered that name) case? One guy confessed to the crime because he wanted the celeb status. Should we have fried him right away.

I say this again, this guy is definitely guilty of kidnapping, but I seriously doubt kidnapping is a crime that deserves capital punishment and I don't think a single state has kidnapping as punishable by death. Once the facts are further explored, maybe I will agree with your death decry, but just not right now.
