ghamer was suggesting whole life term
I did and I stand by it.Why should this loser get another chance at a life after what he's done?Will that little girl?I'm open to alternatives,maybe dump him in the middle of tha Atlantic and if he can make it to shore he gets a 25 stretch.
I'm open to that.This country needs to grow a pair when dealing with animals like this,up my taxes to pay for it too,gladly.

At the risk of derailing this thread.
It’s not automatic. There are prisons that only hold those convicted of sexual offences, but on reception into prison for an offence of that type generally the staff will ask if you want to be segregated. Rule 43 is the internal name for it (hence doing the numbers) and lots of people who are regulars on the prison treadmill will ask for this too. Either for a quieter life or because they’ve got some kind of ongoing dispute with people in the main population.
There’s a lot of cases where someone who has a record for crimes that are acceptable and is ashamed to be seen on the numbers that they’ll try and get by. Usually this lasts until someone hears something from a mutual acquaintance or the local press, then they realise they’re suddenly not who they want to pretend to be.
There are also prisons that have no specific wings or process for segregating people convicted of sex offences including some open prisons.
As for Cashman, it’s sad that he’s not been able to accept responsibility for his actions, but that’s clearly the way for career criminals. He’s obviously going to get a life sentence but the guidelines will make giving a whole life term extremely difficult
