Earlier today, John Evander Couey confessed to killing a nine-year-old Florida girl after taking a lie detector test. Jessica Lunsford's body has not yet been found, but Couey gave them a general area to search. Florida Police are now searching the immediate area of Couey's half-sisters home located just 150 yards from Jessica's home.

A registered sex offender has admitted kidnapping a 9-year-old Florida girl from her home last month and killing her, authorities said Friday.

I've got my man," Citrus County Sheriff Jeff Dawsy told a news conference.

Dawsy said John Evander Couey confessed to investigators after taking a lie-detector test. The sheriff said Jessica Lunsford's body had not been found, but Couey gave them a general area to search.

Given the recent events where killings like this have taken place, it shows that our American system of tracking registered sex offenders needs to be improved dramatically. Just how they can improve it I am not sure, but I think that perhaps some form of tracking device should be called for.

I realize that many may see this as a form of big brother taking control, but what do you do considering the fact that it is very common for sex offenders who have been convicted to repeat the same offense once released.

I assume in this case he may get the death penalty, but that is not an issue. The issue is, what do we do with those that are only sentenced for only a few years?

I agree. Lets be totally logical and realistic here. Enough with the bs about criminals rights and cruelty and all that other bs. If you castrate these people they will never be able to commit these crimes again. Give them a choice either life without parole or castration. This does not apply to this scumbag though he deserves life in prison in the general population. He wont last very long and he will die very painfully at the hands of other murderers that actually have some morals.

Castration will save these people from themselves and mabe they could actually lead somewhat of a normal life by being able to use the brain in their head rather then let their impulses totally take over their decision making. And if not then phuck em, let them go kill themselves because they are no longer biologically men.

One last time, this scumbag deserves to die very painfully, and it should be at the hands of the father of that innocent little girl. I am a father and I actually cried a little when I saw the father on the news begging for his daughter`s return. I almost felt his gut wrenching pain. I felt like I was there, but only for like 10 minutes, while he has to spend the rest of his life without his daughter.

Cases like this should best be left for the surviving parents to decide. If he says he wants him tortured slowly, I say let him call the shots. This would be real closure. And again this scumbag deserves nothing bu the worst. He will rot in hell but lets give him a proper sendoff, kind of like a preview of whats to come.
