Child Killers Walk Free in Washington

Due to recent (loony) Washington State Supreme Court rulings people who killed children are walking free from their prison sentences. Essentially what the court ruled was that you could not convict someone of ‘felony murder’ in cases where intent to kill was difficult to prove. In many of these cases people beat, shook, kicked and threw children as young as 6 weeks old, actions which resulted in death.

I makes me sick that the system that is responsible for protecting the most innocent among us has now released these monsters back into society. Some of them may be re-tried under other laws, but others have already seved more time than they would have received for convictions such as manslaughter and will probably remain free.
