infant raped in Washington...

[Presence]

This is incredible. Just wondered if anyone else heard about this.

From:

Basically, this sicko was babysitting and raped a 9 month old infant. The mother came home, found her baby severely injured, and he went to the hospital.

The kid has been charged with first degree child rape. If convicted, Wamsley will receive a sentence ranging from 93 to 123 months.

This is disgusting. Haven't statistics shown enough that sex offenders don't stop? he's going to get out of jail in 8 years and be unleashed on society's children again. What a waste of space.

Only 8-10 years? That thing needs to die, we have no place for it.

this makes me upset and angry... He'll get out right at the cusp of adulthood. I hate to see what this guy is capable of in the future.

Maybe he'll get what's coming to him while he's locked up...

The 8-10 years doesn't sound right. Is 17 a juvenile in Washington?

I agree with the death sentence upon conviction. You can see exactly where this freak is headed if he's released.

It's easy to focus on the suspect and to forget the victim and his family. Remember what they're going through at this time.

I hope someone kills him before he gets out.

If he just gets raped, things will be that much worse when he is released.

charge him as an adult.... maximum sentence allowable under law, no parole... personally... i would just say take him outside and shoot him... but law doesn't work like that anymore. That crime is just beyond sick, beyond human, and he is nothing more then a sick sick animal.

You are exactly right. Thank you for reminding us to think of them at this time...It must be completely incomprehensibly for something like this to happen.

Speechless. What a @##@ing idiot. What a loser.

The child, thankfully should recover due to his youth, but the mother will never be the same, nor will she ever trust anyone with her children.

may bubba serve him up some justice behind the bars, and may that baby be ok. what a sick POS ....(that is actully too good for him...)

[BikeCop501]

Is this washington dc law? How can rape of an infant carry only a max of 10.25 years in prison!!?

[scratched13]

This guy knows right from wrong. If he doesn't, he is no less a danger to society.

[EDowns]

Is this washington dc law?

No, regretfully this happened in the REAL Washington.

Unfortunately good ol Washington still has some problems as far as sentencing. I'll bet that, even if sentenced to 10 years, he'll be out in far less. I stopped trying to understand people like this years ago. I don't think it's possible for a normal (although a little odd at times ) person to understand the thought process of people like this.
