		<description>What Joel did is unexcusable. There is no argument on that point. But, he stepped up, admitted his crimes, and helped solve the crimes he committed, the families would never have gotten closure in some cases without his statements. He didn&#039;t HAVE to admit EVERYTHING. He could have sat back and let those families worry forever, and he didn&#039;t. He said at his sentencing he was glad it was over, and advised them never to let him out, he simply knew he would never be able to stop. At least, in the end, he did the right thing.</description>

		<description>HE KILLED MY COUSIN ANNA ALONSO...HE FREAKING STRANGLED HER IN HIS CAR, AFTER BECOMING A FRIEND TO HER. SHE WAS IN THE STREETS LOST TO US, SHE WOULD STOP BY EVERY NOW AND THEN, WE TRIED TO GET HER HELP, BUT SHE WOULD SIGN HERSELF OUT..APPARENTLY SHE MET RIFKIN, WHO OFFERED HER FOOD AND CLOTHES AND FRIENDSHIP, AND SEX..FOR MONEY. UNFORTUNATELY, FOR ANNA SHE MADE FRIENDS WITH THE DEVIL, AND ONE DAY AFTER HAVING SEX WITH HER IN THE CAR, HE DECIDED TO STRANGLE HER TO DEATH. HE DUMPED HER BODY NEAR UPSTATE NY, AND SHE WAS FOUND BY JOGGERS SEVERAL DAYS LATER. MY AUNT NOT HAVING HEARD FROM ANNA IN OVER A WEEK STARTED SEARCHING FOR HER. TWO MONTHS AFTER VISITING DIFFERENT POLICE PRECINCTS AND HOMICIDE DEPARTMENTS IN NEW YORK, AND AFTER VIEWING THOUSANDS OF PHOTOGRAPHS OF JANE DOES, MY AUNT FOUND ANNA&#039;S PICTURE ON THE WALL OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IN UPSTATE NY. SHE HAD TO THEN IDENTIFY HER BODY AT THE MORGUE, AND IT WAS THE HARDEST THING SHE HAD TO ENDURE. I DON&#039;T CARE WHAT HE WENT THROUGH, AS A KID, OR ALL OF THE OTHER BULL CRAPP, I DON&#039;T CARE IF HE WAS SMART A NERD, OR A FREAKING GENIUS. WHAT I CARE THE MOST ABOUT IS THAT HE KILLED MY COUSIN ANNA. HE PUT OUR FAMILY THROUGH MORE PAIN AND SUFFERING. WE KNEW THAT SHE HAD PROBLEMS, AND WE DID TRY TO GET HER HELP, AND YES PEOPLE WILL SAY THAT SHE GOT WHAT SHE DESERVED FOR BEING A PROSTITUTE, BUT SHE WAS STILL MY COUSIN, AND ABOVE ALL ELSE SHE WAS STILL A HUMAN BEING. I WOULD OF PREFERRED IF SHE OVERDOSED THAN BEING STRANGLED TO DEATH, NOT BEING ABLE TO FIGHT HIM OFF, KNOWING THAT SHE WAS GOING TO DIE, AND THE FEAR OF IT WHILE IT WAS HAPPENING. IT TAKES 2-4 MINUTES TO STRANGLE A PERSON TO DEATH. ALL WE COULD THINK ABOUT, ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT IS THE FEAR, AND THE HELPLESSNESS THAT ANNA WENT THROUGH WHILE HE WAS KILLING HER.YET EVEN AS HE WAS KILLING HER SHE FOUGHT, AND SHE MANAGED TO SCRATCH HIM EVERYWHERE, THE MEDICAL EXAMINER WAS ABLE TO GET DNA SAMPLES FROM HER FINGERNAILS. I AM GLAD THAT HE IS AWAY FOR LIFE, PERSONALLY I WOULD OF PREFERRED THAT HE GOT THE CHAIR, HOWEVER AT LEAST ANNA CAN REST IN PEACE NOW, AND MY AUNT CAN REST IN PEACE AS WELL KNOWING THAT HER DAUGHTERS&#039; KILLER IS BEHIND BARS, LIKE THE ANIMAL THAT HE IS. ANNA IS SURVIVED BY HER THREE DAUGHTERS, WHO HAVE HAD TO ADJUST TO A LIFE WITHOUT THEIR MOTHER OR GRANDMOTHER. 

AND IN CLOSING...I DON&#039;T GIVE A CRAP HOW MANY PROGRAMS HE HAS OUT THERE TO HELP SOCIETY OR PROSTITUTES, HE&#039;S STILL A SICK F&#039;D UP MONSTER, AND I&#039;M GLAD UR PAYING FOR IT BITCH.</description>

		<description>Joel has an abnormal frontal lobe. This is one area of your brain that controls violent and agressive impulses. It appears he was not subject to abuse as a child. in fact he seems to have had a &quot;normal&quot; childhood.</description>

		<description>for treble 21.. I agree most abused people dont become serial killers, but that doesnt make torturing and bullying alright just because some people are mentally stronger to get on with their lives. However I submit to you that most people with little or no family, friends, sex etc... who endure bullying for a long period of time do committ suicide, abuse or kill others, end up in prison for other crimes, in a mental ward, or turn to drugs and alcohol. Im just saying he definitely did wrong but the reason is because he couldnt withstand his tortued filled life. Do you think people who have sex with dead bodies are mentally ill ? He already had sex with them ,and killed them so he had his fun/revenge on society already. Mental Illness is what provokes somebody to have sex with a dead body. The human mind isnt kryptonite, it gets twisted and distorted due to excess stress. I definitely dont condone what he did, he could have just committed suicide if his life was so bad. His actions were extremely evil but not joel the person. If you have money and you shoplift just for kicks its very different then if you are starving and you shoplift. Shoplifting is wrong so is murder but the reason behind the actions shoulde be held into consideration when judging someone. He deserved some enjoyment in life just like the rest of us. I personally dont believe in a just god why do some people have or were born into such good lives and other people suffer miserablely. And yes I would feel the same way if a family member of friend were a victim of his. I have a question for people in general if you lived next to the people who tortured joel in high school and somebody killed or beat them and you knew the people who did it would you turn them in?I think bullies are more evil then  serial killers !! To have a nice life and get off on inflicting physical or emotional pain to other people who are weak, not well adjusted or different is simply evil. Do you guys agree with me ? Im not saying we should set him free because he is a danger to innocent society but if they put him in a mental institution I definitely wouldnt be opposed. I live in New York I plan on visiting him, and/or helping him out financially if i could. I would ask him why he didnt just commit suicide but I would tell him I dont think he is evil and if he could have some happiness behind bars I would be happy. We live in a society where girls go home with the bullies not the nice guys. Nice guys finish last or sometimes dont finish at all. If you keep a dog in a cage and beat him all his life dont blame the dog for eating a child when he gets out, and dont call the dog evil just because some dogs are mentally touger than that dog. I hope all bullies rot in hell and there victims get to live in eternity torturing them. I think if there is a just god and im not sure if there is joel deserves to spend time in heaven, god would tell him its alright man I know why you did what you did. Killers like robert chambers the &quot;preppy killer&quot; deserve different. He killed the girl in NYC in the Late 80s because she didnt want to have sex with him and he had all the sex in the world he was just greedy and wanted everything. Most serial killers just wanted a slice of happiness.</description>

Joel.. as is the case with everyone.. is nothing more than a pawn in God&#039;s plan.. no? I therefore blame God.


In all seriousness.. I have an somewhat unique perspective of the situation (of which I&#039;ll NOT say).. but both sides of the fence can make some valid points.</description>
