If he's guilty , which it does seem he is, (innocent untill proven guilty right?.. mmm hhmmm) He should be tried as an adult. 17 years old is old enough to know better than to molest a 15 month old baby.
I could sit here and type all kinds of profanity on what should be done to this guys but that, IMO, only makes me look like a fool, I mean it pretty much goes without saying that this guy wouldn't last two seconds in anyones presence. Anyways.
I hope he gets the chair. Yes I BELIEVE in the DEATH penalty.

There are worse out there that haven't been big press stories. If only the media didn't own this country. Not even one month ago I was called to a scene to find 2 dead/raped 2 year old girls as well as a practically dead/raped mother and it was their own father no less (not stepfather). But it was not reported on at all. One of the stupid guys I work with actually said...
"Thank god they weren't all white or we would have gotten some really bad press."
What on earth is an "adult" crime? Crime is crime.
I can't stand this idea of treating people as "adults" when you're trying to get back at them, but as "children" when you're trying to deny them rights. At 17 in the US, one can't vote, buy beer or many other things. It's a double standard. People want it both ways, yet like to believe they're being consistent.
As for him, he's obviously got some problem going on. But that goes for anyone who attacks infants I would think. Same thing for the "shaking" deaths of infants you're always hearing about. Of course you hear much less outrage over those MURDERS than you do about something like this simply because genitalia was involved.

I don't think thats true. the infant will live through this horrible event. When you get shaken to death you die. I think being dead is worse.... As for the filth that did this... he has problems that can't be cured.... He has come up lame, he got dealt the wrong hand and we can't allow him to continue playing it. Thin the heard before he hurts another.

Yes, you're correct, it is MUCH worse. Read my post again --- I agree with you. My sarcasm was aimed at those people who treat something like this as worse than murder (and have extreme anger only because it's sexually related). Murder, of course, is the ultimate. Sorry if my sentence wasn't written clearly enough.
it is my opinion that sex crimes should be treated just as murders. The reason I say this is because often after a person is raped, they feel dead inside, often they never really heal and end up with seriouse mental problems relating to others.
I've seen what the victims end up doing to themselves and those around them

No I understood. I just think the gen pop is able to see the difference but of course I agree this is more provocitive so more people than usual chime in.
La edad de 17 años no significa nada cuando se cometen barbaridades de esta índole. Es la edad mental la que cuenta, pero en cualquier caso, la ley no está distinguiendo los hechos de las edades sinó de la condición mental del atacante. Opino que debe apartarse cierto individuo de nuestra sociedad e impedirle el acceso a la misma mientras un especialista en problemas mentales juzgue y no puede ser un juez normal, mas bien un "Psicólogo".

I completely agree

Well, the headline says rape, but he's being charged with sexual battery. I'm not sure if that means he actually did rape the poor child, or molested her in some other way...not the actual act of...well...you know....damn that's sick regardless what he allegedly did.
