To Err Is Human To Forgive ---Divine, And Ariel Castro
Without Prejudice
People often wonder how you can forgive someone that has caused you great harm. As in the case of Ariel Castro, his victim, survivors, had to forgive him to be able to move forward. But they can never forget. And why should they ? Forgiving him allows them release from the past. They were not those people, they were people under stress, horror, no way out. But they triumphed in the end over him.
He is what he is, an evil monster, a psychopath with no remorse. He has no sympathy for his victims or their families. Every day for all those years he was denying their right to know their child was alive. Three families. I should imagine the families would like to be able to do to him what he has done to their children.
I remember years ago in a court overseas that a mother walked into a court and shot dead the man that had tortured and killed her nine year old daughter. Who would blame her ? I would not want that monster to live either. An eye for an eye, revenge, cold and heartless just as he was. Psychopaths can't be cured. I don't know why we bother spending money keeping them alive, unless it's to study their behaviours, their brain.
The Mother was allowed to walk free of murder.
Everyone in the world understood her cold cocked hatred, was behind her as she aimed the gun. That is not going to bring her daughter back however does he deserve to live ?
Forgiveness is the ultimate revenge.
We are told revenge is a dish best served cold. When the white hot rage of fury has died down. The white hot rage that could be enough for any human being to commit murder. Any one can kill. Depends on the circumstance. If a Mother has to protect her child, she is capable of killing. In France a man or woman could be considered innocent if they found their wife husband In Flagrante Delicto, caught in the act of a sexual nature, their insanity, temporary, the crime passionel, a crime of passion.
In Flagrante Delicto means literally In Blazing Offence.

In flagrante delicto
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In flagrante delicto (Latin: "in blazing offence") or sometimes simply in flagrante (Latin: "in blazing") is a legal term used to indicate that a criminal has been caught in the act of committing an offence (compare corpus delicti). The colloquial "caught in the act", "caught red-handed", or "caught rapid" are English equivalents.
The phrase combines the present active participle flagrāns (flaming or blazing) with the noun dēlictum (offence, misdeed, or crime). In this term the Latin preposition in, not indicating motion, takes the ablative. The closest literal translation would be "in blazing offence", where "blazing" is a metaphor for vigorous, highly visible action.
The Latin term is sometimes used colloquially as a euphemism for someone's being caught in the midst of sexual activity.[
Crime of passion
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

| A crime of passion, or crime passionnel, in popular usage, refers to a violent crime, especially murder, in which the perpetrator commits the act against someone because of sudden strong impulse such as sudden rage rather than as a premeditated crime. The act, as is suggested by the name (crime passionnel - from French language) is often associated with the history of France. However, such crimes have existed and continue to exist in most cultures Crime of passion refers to a criminal act in which the perpetrator commits a crime, especially murder or assault, against someone because of sudden strong impulse such as sudden rage rather than as a premeditated crime. A typical crime of passion might involve an aggressive pub-goer who assaults another guest following an argument or a husband who discovers his wife has made him a cuckold and proceeds to brutally batter or even kill his wife and the man with whom she was involved. |
In the United States civil courts, a crime of passion is referred to as "temporary insanity". This defense was first used by U.S. Congressman Daniel Sickles of New York in 1859 after he had killed his wife's lover, Philip Barton Key, but was most used during the 1940s and 1950s.
In some countries, notably France, crime passionnel(or crime of passion) was a valid defense during murder cases; during the 19th century, some cases could be a custodial sentence for two years for the murderer, while the spouse was dead; this ended in France as the Napoleonic code was updated in the 1970s so that a specific father's authority upon his whole family was over.
