Fritzl told them his daughter was living with a sect now and, being unable to raise her children, had laid the newborn babies at his door. But credulous must you be to believe that?

I saw it in yesterday's newspaper. Absolutely incredible that it could go on for 24 years. It's hard to believe she couldn't have had an opportunity to escape. I hope this man gets the harshest of punishment. Frankly he's lowest of the low.Quote:

I can't believe people put this in the incest thread. That has nothing to do with incest between consenting people, it's RAPE and abuse. You people really use any means to reach your end, but I hope some people out there will avoid falling into the trap of "incest is wrong" because of this video.
Sweets I think you have a fair point: this last case is one of rape and abuse, even if the victim was that horrible's man daughter, so it doesn't really relate to the what this thread has been discussing.
Since it has been brought up though here and not anywhere else:
I just read that Fritzl will probably get 15 years of imprisonment. Which I thought unfair, he should get at least the same amount of time that his daughter and the 3 kids were locked up for.
The wife has apparently been cleared of not knowing anything. Which I just can't believe: how can you live with someone and not pick up, even slightly, on their manners and moods? Wasn't she even suspicious that something was going on?
The saddest part will be for the victims to get used to life 'outside'.
Thanks, at least one person understands my point. :pQuote:

That's scary, but I think that's possible, some people are real manipulators. There has been another story like that, I think it was in France, about a woman who was married and had three kids and she killed all the babies and put them into the freezer. Her husband was never aware that she was pregant until he found the freezed babies. Well, he claimed he was not aware of it. But I think this might be possible.
Yeah, the kids will have to get used to life outside now, but the sad thing is that life outside is not necessarily great either.
You're point is well noted Sweets. :)
It's horrible and all the more worse because it's incestuous
yeah, vheissu, I agree with you. I don't know about the law in Austria, but I think in Germany a "life" sentence means a maximum of 15 years (or maybe it was 25?). I think they can't actually lock anyone up for their whole life or 999 years like in the US (I might have got it wrong, though). :mad:Quote:

humm I was wondering if this thread would be woken up, but here is my question isnt what he did just "evil" on its own with out the incest bit being added into the mix, surley he should be getting the same punishment eitther way, yes the incest additin was twisted and horrid but any man keeping a woman in a dugenon for 24 years deserves server punishment.
Sorry I posted it here. I see your point, sweets. I didn't think about the implications for people who are for incest between consenting adults. (Just don't call me "people" next time you want to reproach me. :) )
Yes, I see what you mean about 'people'. :blush: I hesitated between that and 'barbara' but I thought it was not only about you, more about those who would use what you posted to back up the idea that incest was wrong.Quote:

Perhaps it's even worse than murder - because by abusing her and imprisoning her he killed her soul.Quote:
