Girl's Rape (by correctional officer) Caught on Tape, Parents Say

[TheMadMonk]

5. And then we get to the penultimate paragraph.

"The Halls want no less than $2 million damages..."

Excuse me, but it's their daughter who is the victim and who should be entitled to any damages/compensation monies. The ONLY thing these parents appear to be entitled to is a clue by four, but apart from the cardio-vascular workout it would probably be a complete waste of effort.

Prosecute Robinson and more importantly prosecute the hell out of the person(s) who looked the other way whenever Robinson visited the girl's unit. Prosecute prison management for criminal misconduct. However, the practice of awarding of financial compensation to "make it go away" does nothing to discourage the next would be institutional rapist. All too often, the perpetrator is "let go" or reassigned, and the terms of almost all settlements preclude publicity at a minimum, and all to often anything resembling actual criminal sanctions as well.
