So, Bobby Joe Helms, the “Hyde Park Rapist,” is being released. Again. After serving most of the past 22 years in prison and a treatment center.
Three points.
First, his plea deal plus discipline problems plus a violation of his treatment-center release lengthened his stay from his original 10-year sentence. Even still, that’s less than 1.5 years per (12) rape and (4) attempted rape.
Second, psychiatrists have determined that Helms is no longer a danger.
Third, how can they be so sure? Has he been spayed?
