Not every state has the harshest penalties for these people. His doing himself in only saved him for when he would be released. Pretty sure vigilante justice would catch up.

But it begs the question, these kinds of people destroy lives. Why should they have such short terms? His girlfriend, Maxwell, has already served 3/20 years of her sentence.. she too helped ruin 100's of lives. A recent suicide by one of those helpful in her indictment, just serves notice imho, at least life inside is warranted, if not a death penalty.


The death penalty for sex traffickers and child abusers is a controversial topic. In the U.S., the Supreme Court ruled in Kennedy v. Louisiana that the death penalty cannot be applied for crimes against individuals unless they involve murder. This means that even the most heinous cases of child abuse or trafficking do not qualify for capital punishment under current law.

Some argue that these crimes destroy lives and should warrant the harshest possible punishment. Others believe that life imprisonment without parole is a more effective and just sentence, ensuring offenders never harm anyone again while avoiding legal and ethical concerns surrounding capital punishment.

But to me, life sentences mean little these days, many are released after term in prison.

And life sentences don't always mean life behind bars—some offenders may be eligible for parole depending on the state and circumstances. However, some states are tightening laws to ensure harsher penalties for sex traffickers and child abusers.
For example, New Hampshire recently voted to increase sentences for child sex trafficking to 18 years to life in prison. In Arizona, voters approved Proposition 313, which mandates life sentences for convicted child sex traffickers.

How would you handle parole for these crimes?

To add insult to injury, did you know In addition to the prison sentence, MAXWELL, 60, was sentenced to five years of supervised release and ordered to pay a $750,00 fine?
