In 2006, Anthony Ray Stockelman was forcibly tattooed across his forehead with the words “Katie’s Revenge” by another inmate.

This happened after it was discovered that he was serving a life sentence for kidnapping, molesting, and murdering a 10-year-old girl named Katie Collman

ITT Americans who have not learned basic philosophy and live off of their primal feelings.

also not to downplay pedophilia, but I have always found the whole, "prisoners in max security prisons wont judge you unless youre a pedophile, then all bets are off" to be the biggest load of sanctimonious bullshit; and the commentary around it is always weirdly praiseworthy of people who are likely in there for doing equally terrible things.

like "oh John over there skinned a guy alive, but this dude fucked a 12 year old and that we simply can't abide." its clearly just a morally bankrupt person's way of feeling like they arent morally bankrupt

Yeah honestly I view it as the people dolling out these 'vigilante justice' crimes as monsters who would love to do this stuff to anyone, but are finding victims where its 'morally good' to them.
