Said by local people to be the best coverage.
Courant editorial on the parole decisions.
Apparently, when they appeared in court this morning, Hayes' lawyer was at his side, but Komisarjevsky stood up there alone for a few minutes of uncomfortable silence. It seems his public defender was schmoozing in the hall. I could almost feel sorry for him.
Not.
They are lucky that our system demands they have a defense attorney.
There was somebody in the courtroom who yelled "Killer!" into that silence. The judge had him removed from the building.
Justice is a toughie in this case, when my whole being cries for vengeance!
As you know Ronni,this is a painful one for my community and me.
ReplyDeleteIn the back of my mind i had hoped someone would blow them away outside the courthouse..but that would only cause another family pain, so i'm glad no one did.
There are so many flowers in front of his office,more everyday.
I have to go there the end of this month and it's gonna be hard walking in there knowing he is not there.
We all got a form letter stating he was on leave indefinately.if it was me i doubt i'd ever go back........
Sad thing is...these pieces of garbage don't feel anything. They are like vacant lots.
ReplyDeleteEmpathy is not a part of their make-up.
I give my grandson loads of hugs and kisses. More than he can stand, actually. With the hope that he will grow up to be a compassionate, caring and loving human being.
I forgot to mention that the security around the courthouse was very intense. There are a lot of people there who feel like Terri does, without her sense of justice...
ReplyDeleteMgt, there's no such thing as too much lovin', when it comes to those little ones!
Fingers crossed, Ronni. We can only hope our off-spring will turn out being well adjusted.
ReplyDeleteIt must be really awful to be personally acquainted with the victim of such a senseless crime. I can only imagine the rage a person must feel.
If you recall, Mgt, that's how we got Stacey. Her mother works for Dr. Hacking. All the 'fits were beating up on Mormons and she stood up for Mormons in general and the Hackings in particular.
ReplyDeleteI'll tell you one thing--I have not allowed anyone to knock Mormons without telling them to hush, ever since.
Go, Stacey!
I didn't know that, Ronni. I knew that Stacey was acquainted with the family. I didn't realise that M/Fitting found her, or her M/Fitting, through that case.
ReplyDeleteI agree. She is a wonderful human being. A good girl with a wonderful sense of humour. I love her.
I have a question maybe someone can help me with.
ReplyDeleteIf Dr. Petit ever comes back,I don't know how i should act or say. This isn't something i've ever had to deal with before..He has been there for me when i needed him over and above being my Dr.
Do i act like nothing has changed?
we always talked so frankly and candidly, or do i do something out of the ordinary for me and just give him a big hug (yes he is approchable that way,or was) and tell him it's good he's back?.
I'm so confused with this one.
and i agree with Ronnie no such thng as too much loving with children.
I think your heart will tell you what to do when you see him. I hope that doesn't sound like a cop-out, but I would "play it by ear." He may have had more sympathetic hugs than he can really deal with. Telling him you are sorry for his loss could never be out of line, though.
ReplyDeleteI think Ronni has given you good advise, Terri. Don't be afraid to offer your condolences.
ReplyDeleteI would not do the hugging thing, though. When my mother died I hated being hugged. You just never know, he could feel the same.
I'm guessing that this awful experience will have changed him. I could be wrong.
ReplyDeletethanks..your probably right, but just to let you know, he hugged me when he thought i needed it..yes i know not something a Dr. normally does but that's why he is so different.
ReplyDeleteAnd i'm sure this has changed him, how could it not?..but thank you both ..i just didn't wnat to do the "wrong" thing
you know?
Follow your heart.
