worthy of death penalty?
PASADENA, Texas—Even law enforcement officers were shocked when a Pasadena man was arrested with ten 500-gigabyte hard drives full of child pornography.
Investigators said that is more child porn than anyone arrested in Texas has ever had. They said the man likely committed crimes against children every two days. Investigators arrested John Sandel, 69, at his home on Pine in Pasadena. They said his pornographic images mostly involved infants. “The possessions alleged he had images of abuse, bestiality—actual sexual intercourse and sexual intercourse,” Harris County prosecutor Eric Devlin said. As bad as that sounds, long-time sex therapist Dr. Barbara Levinson said she doesn’t believe every man involved in that kind of criminal activity belongs in jail. Levinson believes prevention is the key. “Let’s talk about how we can prevent this and how if somebody does this, how we can treat them without locking them up and making a big deal out of it. Some people need to go to jail, they do. I’m in total agreement,” she said. Levinson said she’d like to see something like a “porn court,” if you will, where a trained judge and prosecutor could determine whether a suspect would be better off in rehab, a hospital or jail. “Certainly they have to stop their behavior. There is no doubt about it,” Levinson said. But Harris County said a recent study conducted in a federal prison showed the majority of those who were charged only with child porn had, in fact, already actively sexually abused a child. Levinson believes that study is inaccurate. Even if it is, it will be a tall task to convince the public that those who commit crimes against kids shouldn’t be locked away for good
