Throw all of them in the same cell and let them do what they want to eachother. They deserve to rot for what they have done to innocent children. On crimes like these, I firmly believe that they Do Not deserve a fair trial. Lock them up and throw away the key. I have a son and if anything like that happened to him well there's no telling what I would do. I wouldn't take any pity on the individual responsible I can tell you that!
Really, no one deserves a fair trial? Based only on evidence from the police and no presentation from the defense? I'm sorry, but even the most despicable person deserves their day in court to face their accusers and own up to their deeds, if convicted.
