So why is it that we feel the need to protect scum?

No matter what his role is in the abduction and alleged murder of 8 year old Victoria Stafford, Michael Rafferty was indeed involved. There is a missing, presumed dead, 8 year old girl and we have him in segragation and on suicide watch?

What the hell? We let the one go on some helicopter rides, and enjoy freedom for a few more days with no reward for the parents who are grieving and hurting and wanting to have some closure, and we protect the other one from a fate that he so totally deserves?
The facts of the case are yet to roll out and people are still wondering what happened, how did this happen under everyones nose and no one noticed anything. Then the people who did come forward, were the dismissed? Was it their info that broke the case? Why did it take so long?

What happened with this case that could have been better right from the start?

The amber alert is going to be reviewed? Ok, that is good. I don’t think the amber alert would have done anything, I mean really… the vehicle was unknown, all the media attention and it still took 42 days to break the case?

Something is wrong in this world. And I don’t like it.
