MONSTER MEDWAY ADMITS RAPING 3-YEAR-OLD GIRL

Freshwater man Graham Medway has admitted the sickening rape of a toddler at a beauty spot in the West Wight.

Medway carried out the horrendous crime in woodland at Fort Victoria Country Park on 31st August – Bank Holiday Monday.

The rapist will now appear before the Isle of Wight Crown Court for sentencing in January, where he faces the possibility of life behind bars. In the meantime, he will be remanded in prison whilst reports are prepared on his risk to the public.

Article continues below this advertisement

Graham Medway’s admission of guilt means the family do not have to sit through weeks of distressing details about that afternoon.

It’s been confirmed that he did not know his victim.

Medway, formally of Edinburgh Road in Freshwater, was charged with the rape of a child under the age of 13 on 23rd September. He will appear before the Crown Court on Friday 8th January 2021 for sentencing.

Deprive this vile sack of sh*t of oxygen as quickly as possible. We taxpayers do not wish to feed him and look after him in prison till the end of his days, or worse pay for his change of ID etc when he gets out on some early licence nonsense.

He will be protected from harm from other prisoners. The do gooders and human rights will see to that,all at the expense of us mugs at £1200 per day. Sod his rights, what about the little kid’s rights? He needs dealing with behind closed doors by the public eye for an eye principle.

Sadly our jails are so full of the third world child perverts, who hunt in gangs preying on white girls, BUT the press drop those stories as quickly as they can, so whilst ‘Saville, Hindley, and this cretin will be remembered, the scores of newcomers here, who do this daily, will never become household names, and their vile crimes then fade from public horror.

So with such now filling our pervert offenders jails, there is little room to jail our own perverts for meaningful sentences now.

Physical castration is the only way to deal with this vile, incurable rubbish, if they do have to be ‘released’

A collar filled with a small explosive device, with a pin number known to the police should also be fitted so as to be able to be detonated and severe the spine, should any child be taken again.

Why the possibility of life behind bars – should be life without parole. Evil at its worse. I don’t normally wish harm to anybody but on this occasion pray that he gets what he deserves in prison. Thoughts are with the little girl and family.

as we do not have the death penalty – the correct course of action for him is..

a small locked cell for the rest of his life
one small slit in one wall, to see daylight
one toilet – a hole in the floor.
one hatch for food to be pushed through
no human contact/no tv/no books/no internet – nothing – just his thoughts to keep him company.

a box on the wall with a bottle of pills and a bottle of scotch – break glass when had enough of life in this room – take pills, drink scotch, lay down and die.

or just die of natural causes in the room, whenever that is.

Bloody good idea just ashame the stupid human rights law is about, when someone does something wrong that law should not apply to them.

agreed – too many are worried about the rights of the criminal.

When an individual carries out an act, which does not respect the rights of another, then the law should state that the perpetrator of the crime has forfeited all protection under the human rights act, by committing the crime in the first place and will be at the mercy of society. Society never forgets or forgives.

Castration by the general public seems a good idea. I think they’d do it for free.

there is a small glimmer of hope though dippy.

the girl does have a chance to be able to put it behind her – it will take many, many years though, she will be affected for a long time, she won’t actually be able to deal with and process what happened until she is much older and even then it will be a traumatic time.

With the right understanding and support from her family, she will have a chance of getting through it – not all are lost, however, it will take a massive amount of inner strength on her part to deal with something she should never have had to experience.

no guarantees – but she does have a chance

unlike the perpetrator – there is no way back for him, he is lost to the filthy dirty slimy underbelly of society, where he will remain until he dies and is forgotten.

As she gave a false alibi, isn’t she guilty of aiding and abetting or some other charge?

Going back a few decades filth like this would have been dealt with by the parents, friends and relatives of the victim, and then found behind a hedge the next morning.

So many people and saying the same things.. how come nothing ever happens to put this too rights? When you have taken someone’s rights, what rights should you then have? The sad fucks that fight for the rights of these scum seem to be the only people being heard. No figure? There’s a lovely empty island in Alaska! Fend for themselves!!!
