  • gtluke, on 05/02/2008, -3/+32GTA IV made him do it
  • XeriousTrubble, on 05/02/2008, -3/+18the punishment should fit the crime. life long confinement in total darkness with little room, and little contact aside from the occasional rape.
  • mrjofo, on 05/02/2008, -3/+16My dad always killed me with gas.
  • stinger666, on 05/02/2008, -5/+18How can the family upstairs not notice what was going on? One of their sisters suddenly disapears and he spent most of his days downstairs. Nobody else went downstairs for 20 years?
  • flipcritic, on 05/02/2008, -3/+15Way to go. Turn real human suffering into cheap entertainment.
  • Klarth, on 05/02/2008, -3/+15Funny coming from someone called "LolitaR"
  • 4LI3ER70, on 05/02/2008, -1/+12Don't kill them in Aruba!

  • glock22ownr, on 05/02/2008, -4/+14"This sicko should be locked up permanently, with no human contact!"

    Sadly he's 73 so it's only like 5 years or so before he kicks the bucket... I'd say torture would be more suitable for what he's done. He has killed his daughter in so many ways... think about the best years of someones life, 20's and 30's. There's college, first love, first job, first child ( with someone other than pops ). What do we have now? A 42 year old woman that is most likely not very well educated, definetely traumatized and has 6 children. How's she going to raise them... or take care of them since they're fairly old themselves? The article says he started abusing her when she was eleven years old. Death is too good for this sick ***** !!
  • rockrapdude, on 05/02/2008, -0/+9Austrian? Check.
    Gassing? Check.
    Making himself look like a dictator from the 20th century? Priceless.
  • silvertrigger, on 05/02/2008, -0/+8He will not be sentenced to death. Austria abolished the death penalty in 1950 and he will be persecuted under Austrian law. He most likely will face a life sentence.
  • GiggleStick, on 05/02/2008, -1/+8If I'm not mistaken, they said she had run-away. There are many children who do run away, we can't assume that every runaway is really locked up in their parents' basement. There were other things that should have been noticed, however.
  • NoCt1, on 05/02/2008, -1/+8Hostel meets Panic room..
  • gemmakicn, on 05/02/2008, -0/+6Any punishment would be pure retribution, and as sick as reading this makes me feel, we could not commit an act of retribution that would not turn into monsters ourselves.

    That said, either his wife needs to be declared mentally incapable, or she is culpable for being an aide in each and every one of his crimes.
  • thinkart, on 05/02/2008, -0/+6read the article.
  • ripple123, on 05/02/2008, -0/+6This is like some sick nightmarish horror you thought only existed in the movies.
  • NoCt1, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5He will have that anyways.. Prison..
  • chanop, on 05/02/2008, -7/+12I can't wait for them to make this into a movie
  • Digger1218, on 05/02/2008, -1/+6An Austrian threatening to kill people with gas? Shocking!
  • fluidfoundation, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5I dont say this about a lot of people, but I hope that man dies a fiery pussfilled death.
  • BossKey, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5OK IglooBurner. Or should I say.....Mr. President?
  • pak314, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5What a sick *****. I say waterboard him once a week the rest of his life.
  • TheDreadDiggerD, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5Austria != Australia
  • 1cat, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4What a crazy story, this whole incest-drama. Poor family of that devil-dad.
  • Andrwmorph, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4Because that has never been done before, right?
  • GiggleStick, on 05/02/2008, -1/+5Well, when humans were uncivilized billions of women were able to give birth with no help at all. How do you think we evolved without doctors or midwives to deliver babies.
  • stray, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4Oh, man; an Austrian and gas. The Sudetenland had best keep their eyes open.
  • inactive, on 05/02/2008, -1/+5Crazy Australians.
  • hokie47, on 05/02/2008, -1/+5If you look up the definition sick you would see a picture of him next to the word.
  • inactive, on 05/02/2008, -1/+5The guy is a sick Son of a Bitch....I am sure he had help. I doubt he delivered all those 7 children. Who knows what else will show up...
  • estacado, on 05/02/2008, -1/+5I bet he threw away the idea because gas prices have gone up.
  • URnotheonly1, on 05/02/2008, -0/+3wow, those Nazis, must be deep in the DNA.
  • blankoboy, on 05/02/2008, -1/+4In turn, he will likely be getting lined up for some gassing himself.
    /sick f*ck from hell.
  • truspect0r, on 05/02/2008, -1/+4Girl Next Door
  • plizard, on 05/02/2008, -1/+4ok the guy has sex with his daughter, apparently he was missing some apples to begin with.
  • lgfaphile, on 05/02/2008, -1/+4Austria, imprisonment and gassing. Where's the news?
  • Andrwmorph, on 05/02/2008, -0/+3Crikey!
  • Carlix, on 05/02/2008, -0/+3Can you tell me why God has to be guilty of our own actions?

    Punish the sicko and lock him up for good!
  • footodors, on 05/02/2008, -1/+3Lunatic Fringe!
  • Andrwmorph, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2I think he should get a pineapple up the ass on a daily basis until his death.
  • macfanboi, on 05/02/2008, -1/+3GAS HIM!!!!
  • bunji, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2They should auction off five minutes alone with this ***** to raise money for his victims' treatment.
  • tonich03, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2Seriously, can it get any worse? I hate this individual so much that no matter what I hear next I won't hate him more.
  • tresorArt, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2knowing this sick *****, he's probably like it.
  • Seemefearme, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2Not likely. There is no death penalty where he lives and they are talking that he might get 15 years (which is a life sentence for a 70+ year old).
