I think that was obvious, and virtually certain, from the moment the story broke, even before the media reports got more specific.

I can't help but wonder if this might not have happened if prostitution were legal and brought out from the shadows. I'm not saying that I condone it, but sometimes trying to enforce a blanket ban (i) is not effective, and (ii) has other unintended consequences ..... like prohibition, and the similar attempt to outlaw drugs, which were/ are both ineffective and serve mostly to fill up our prisons, enrich a criminal underclass, and dramatically increase the violence in society.

I guess you now know how it feels when the meaning and purpose of what you post is COMPLETELY misconstrued. 
The guy is a particularly dangerous rapist. I thought that was so obvious it didn't need to be stated, and was obvious even before the media reports got more complete and specific.

I believe the Cleveland police dept has a lot to answer for in this case - also in the case of Anthony Sowell (the mass murderer who had raped and murdered women and their bodies were found in his home a few years ago). Sad to say - if these girls/women had lived in a more affluent suburb of Cleveland I truly believe that more effort would have been made to find them.

although some of their punishment tactics wouldn't go amiss for this repulsive sicko.
i am sorry i can't find your post serious enough to even discuss whether or not it has a correlation to such crimes.
secondly i wasn't making a personal insult but just saying your opinion is too silly to be even taken seriously.
nothing personal.

I have been following Jodi sort off, I am never too sure where entertainment and reporting separate in the US Media.
Hopefully this one does not go to far in this direction.

So that's the end for him.
I suspect closure for the ladies concerned may not come quite so easily......

Ironic that he couldn't handle the imprisonment that he subjected the girls to. Although I wondered if it's really that easy to get hold of a noose in a high security prison. I imagine the other prisoners (and maybe even the guards) in there didn't think too highly of him, wonder if there was foul play involved.
