All these years go by without a word and they are still going to try and plea bargain with these people..They should rot in prison every single one of them..As far as I'm concerned they got to live their lives, get married have kids buy nice houses in the suburbs and now that they are at the age of retirement, let them finish out their scum years in prison and die there..I dont think plea bargaining with any of them is justice for this at all."
