Cutlass Rapist In Trinidad
When I read this news I was shocked by it, this guy makes me so sick...even though he did not kill the girl, he deserves hanging (and yes, death penalty is allowed in Trinidad and Tobago)
QUOTE (Express Newspaper)A CHAGUANAS man who used a cutlass to slice open the vagina of a 15-year-old virgin before raping her was found guilty last night by a nine-member jury and is expected to be sentenced tomorrow at the Hall of Justice.
David Herel, 31, of Amaroosingh Street, Longdenville, was also found guilty of two charges of false imprisonment, but not guilty of robbing his teenaged victim and her elder sister of $67 on April 15, 1999, after deliberating for the mandatory three hours.
This was Herel's third trial for the same offences. A jury had failed to agree in October 2004 and he was ordered to face a retrial and again in October 2005, when his trial was aborted after prejudicial evidence was admitted before the jury.
State prosecutors Nalini Singh and Renuka Rambhajan led evidence from the two sisters who testified that they were awaiting transportation along the Chaguanas Main Road around 9 p.m. When Herel, driving a private car, stopped and they entered the back seat of the vehicle.
He offered to drop the girls off at their Las Lomas home for the extra fare but along the way turned off into Ramgoolie Trace and whipped out a cutlass. He locked the elder sister, who was then 24, in the trunk of the car, and stripped the clothing off the younger girl.
He threw the teenager face-down on the trunk of the car and used the cutlass to cut open her vagina when he was having difficulty during penetration....

He got 20 years on the charge of rape, ten years on the charge of wounding and five years each on the charges of false imprisonment BUT he got away with corporal punishment which in my opinion should have been a MUST based on the pain this beast made this little girl go through.

| A RAPIST, who used a sharpened cutlass to help penetrate a 15-year-old virgin, was spared corporal punishment yesterday as he was sentenced to 20 years in jail for his crimes. The victim's father told the Daily Express that he wanted the attacker, David Herel, to be flogged to send a message to other offenders. "So much people getting rape out there and they are not strong enough to come forward and give the evidence," he said. Herel, 31, of Amaroosingh Street, Longdenville, Chaguanas was found guilty of rape, wounding with intent and two counts of false imprisonment on March 15, and Justice Larry Lalla, presiding in the Port of Spain Fourth Criminal Court at the Hall of Justice had postponed sentencing to yesterday. Several of the jurors who had found Herel guilty of the offences comforted the victims outside the courtroom after the judge sentenced the prisoner. In passing sentence, Lalla told Herel that he pounced on a teenager who was "innocent of the ways of the world, still living under the roof of her parents and no doubt looking forward to a life of happiness which is her right". When you could not get your penis in her you took your cutlass and slit her vagina so that you could get in," the judge said. After committing the heinous act, Herel in his "demonic lust" told the victim, 'Yuh is a virgin, I like dealing with virgins'. "Your conduct that night was that of a sex fiend. One could well imagine how your actions will affect her for the rest of her life. Women are blessings we have received from God and ought to be treated with love and respect. The Court has a duty to the women of this country to protect them from persons such as you," Lalla said.... |

Why would he only get such a lenient sentence? 35 years, in my opinion, is not enough for someone like that. Did he express any remorse in what he had done?

Who cares if he has remorse... the guy needs to face the gallows. Not very 'kind' on my part, but I tell you... somebody that will go to such lengths will not stop unless someone STOPS them. I believe I discussed this in another thread about the over development of the pituitary gland and sex / violence being combined.
