From an ex-student at my university, about to be sentenced for the rape of two teenage students in their residence in 2007:

In a pre-sentence report, Katsnelson said he hoped “some day the victim would be able to take something positive away from this, as he has … that maybe she will know to keep her doors locked,” Locke told the court.

All I can say is, well, fuck you, Katsnelson. Thanks for demonstrating how much you haven’t learned, though. The only person who needs to learn something from your actions is you, and that is to not go around raping women. It’s not that hard for most people.

It’s rare for me to read an article about a trial or a sentencing and root for the maximum. In this case, I certainly hope that the judge accepts the recommendation of the prosecutor. I don’t think three years is going to be long enough for this person to learn how to be a human being instead of a piece of shit, since apparently the first 25 years of his life weren’t sufficient – and neither was “coming from a good family” or his “good background” which apparently are some of the “mitigating factors” the judge will consider.
