This **** needs to be tortured 24 hours a day for the rest of his life

[Dballn247]

Nig should be tortured just as he tortured the girl, kept alive for years, and every month someone re tortures him

If convicted (being politically correct) he should be sentenced to a daily raping.

After seeing his picture, Debussey = not suprised.

From 1976 until 2004, despite their comprising approximately 12% of the population, African-Americans comprised the majority (52%) of criminal offenders arrested and convicted of homicide (murder and manslaughter), and a large proportion (46.9%) of homicide victims

Are you saying that skin colour is not arbitrary and there may be genetic components explaining why black people commit seven times the violent crime as white people?

lol

[Danimal77]

Sorry, but did the victim actually gouge out her own eye balls?

[PANDAEMONIUM]

Absolutely my brutha.  When you do something that heinous you deserve an "eye for an eye", and then some.

I feel bad for the girl's family.  What an awful way to remember your daughter/sister/niece's last days.  Nobody deserves that.

My 2 cents...Our government doesn't care about people like this...They don't care if he kills, drugs or whatever as long as he does this to middle to lower class citizens...The fact that she was a Colombia grad with a journalism degree basically will seal this guys fate in prison...

My guess is he will be taken out within 3 to 5 years in prison...If he did this to a lower class citizen, then it wouldn't matter

[PANDAEMONIUM]

It sounds like the victim may be still alive.  Is she or did she die after the incident?

Died.

Doctors later said the woman's liver had failed, probably because of the medicine, and that a liver transplant might be necessary. Fortunately, the transplant was not needed, Prunty said.

[OTHstrong]

Died.

I think your wrong. The word fortunatly would mean she survived, if she died they would've said unfortunatly; also his charges don't include murder

My Q is: How, how, can people be so evil?? And.. I have a feeling that this is happening more in USA then in any other country, why is it so?

We have a nosier press corps?

That's definitely part of it.  I wonder how much our glorification (mainly in film) of sick shit like this--like in the SAW and Hannibal Lecter movies (which I love BTW)--contributes to this.  What I'm getting at is, these no-name sickos see a chance to make a name for themselves and maybe have a movie made about them..

Yeah, that Korean dude who shot up VA tech knew he was going to be a "star"  Seems like they all have manifestoes these days.

They get those movies in other countries too - but they don't seem to have as much of a problem with psychos.

The only way people are evil in this way is if they have a total lack of empathy. It hurts me to know someone suffers, but some feel absolutely nothing in regards to others suffering. In some cases people even feel joy. I have to disagree on your second comment about more in US. There are other countries that make what happens in US kindergarden....Nigeria, South Africa, Columbia etc. In some countries there is very little press so situations like this are easy to hide.

Probably arises from the same genetic component that makes you idiotically insert your inflammatory racial bigotry into as many threads as you can.

Some people on this board may consider this beeing a fine example of Matt"Swastika"C getting owned by Dr.Chimps

well, he would like that...then it would not be a 'torture' dont you think?

[slaveboy1980]

What sort of sick fuck is this guy, I hope the prison population run a train on his ass.


NEW YORK - An ex-convict went on trial Thursday on charges of raping, torturing and burning a Columbia University graduate student in a 19-hour attack during which her eyelids were slit and she was forced to take so many painkillers that her liver failed.

Robert Williams, 31, sat with chained arms and legs, his head lowered, as the prosecutor delivered an opening statement that left several people in the courtroom weeping.

Williams turned the victim's small one-bedroom apartment into "his torture chamber" and violated the 23-year-old woman "in every way imaginable and in some ways unimaginable," Assistant District Attorney Ann Prunty told the jury.
Story continues below ↓advertisement

Prunty said Williams stopped the torture only after the victim — who at one point during the ordeal tried to kill herself — blacked out from hours of pain caused by knife wounds, boiling water, battering and sexual assaults.

"Then he could no longer feel power over another human being," Prunty said.

Life in prison if convicted
Williams is charged with kidnapping, arson, burglary and sexual assault. He faces life in prison if convicted.

The defendant's lawyer, Arnold Levine, tried but failed to have Williams declared mentally unfit for trial. Levine did not make an opening statement.

The victim, a Columbia University journalism graduate student, found Williams in her building's elevator in the Hamilton Heights neighborhood of Upper Manhattan when she came home around 9:30 p.m. on April 13, 2007, Prunty said. She said he followed her to her fifth-floor apartment and attacked her.

During the brutal ordeal, Prunty told jurors, Williams raped the victim, poured boiling water over her, hurled a pot of bleach in her face, ordered her to gouge out her own eyes with a pair of scissors, sealed her lips shut with glue and duct tape and slit her eyelids with a butcher's knife.

After one assault, he forced the woman to swallow a fistful of pills from her medicine cabinet and wash them down with four beers, Prunty said.

Doctors later said the woman's liver had failed, probably because of the medicine, and that a liver transplant might be necessary. Fortunately, the transplant was not needed, Prunty said.

The woman at one point tried to plunge a pair of scissors into her own neck in a bid to commit suicide.

After about 19 hours, Prunty said, Williams tied the naked, unconscious woman to a futon with computer cables and set it on fire. The woman awoke and smelled smoke, broke free and made her way to the hallway, where she was rescued.

Prunty said Williams' DNA was found on the victim and her clothing, and her DNA was found on his clothing. Security cameras captured him trying to withdraw money with the woman's ATM card, she said.

During the time she was conscious, Prunty said, the victim studied Williams closely. Prunty said every scar and feature she later described to police matched the appearance of the defendant.

i can take care of him. i have some ideas for him

Always an interesting question.

'The Strangers', which features one of the characters getting his face blown off, opened May 30th.  Less than a week later, Amanda Savell dies of an apparent gunshot blast to the face.

The guy is a vicious animal.  No American prison is capable of turning him into a person.

there is no logic in this (IMHO)...movies ARE made of someones imagination OR based in real facts some times...unfortunately, real life is always more frightening than movies...

[ToxicAvenger]

They should execute that bastard.

in the exact manner as he did her....19 hrs worth of pain..

[Kwon]

What comes into a persons mind making him do a thing like this?

Why did he gouge the eyeballs for example?

[spinnis]

People will talk all kind of shit.
And No one NO ONE will do anything about it.

[Petrucci]

well, its a mind of a psicopath..there is no logic to it, or at least, there is no 'reasonable' logic to it...you will never understand his reasons. 'Normal' people always have somekind of moral, of good sense that prevents you to do some things....like when someone say something to you and you think' i would kill that motherf*cker' but you dont do it..well, some people dont have this kind of block...

[y19mike77]

Then you'd be no better as this is pretty much what he did to that poor girl.

HAHHAHAHHAHAH Your a tard.

He did what he did for no another reason except to enjoy it. It turned him on and he got off on what he did.

Doing it to him would be punishment. I see a very big diff in the 2.
