I never followed this case. So he raped 2 women? Or at least that’s what the sentence is for. A sentence as excessive as that does not seem wise to me. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have any sympathy for rapists. I do have sympathy for the victims.
But what does this sentence really send as a message to criminals? From a criminal’s point of view you can just as well kill all witnesses, especially the victims, if it won’t make the consequences of being caught any worse but reduced the chances of being caught. This is really, really unwise.
