The unfortunate reality is there will probably be seriously depraved criminals in our midst to some degree from now on. Sometimes you need some bad ass mofo to bring back the worst of the worst.

Before I pulled the plug, I watched way too much TV. On weekends. MSNBC would have true crime dramas, repeats of Dateline and similar. Do you remember that notorious crime where some guy showed up at a bank with a bomb around his neck, locked in place like handcuffs? Two twisted mo-fos were behind that, they made several attempts at pulling that one off, I forget the details. The first guy was seriously injured from it, killed him thoroughly.

Did you ever hear of the notorious LA rapist duo, one of them was nicknamed "pliers?" These guys were responsible for a number of kidnapping-rape-torture-murders of young women, some of them picked up while hitchhiking. One guy would use vice grips to torture and force them into compliance, squeezing fingers so hard they were about to break for example. I think it's a good thing creeps like that find a long-term home in the big gray house. The 'pliers' guy was pretty proud of himself. He was famous in the epic scumbag criminal world. It was cops who brought them in finally.
