The Dooley's are a disgrace to humanity but so are half these letters and the Star. See link below
I know I'm the biggest softy here but is Canada really so vicious? What are we gonna do to reduce this kind of savagry? Bring in more prosecutors and a coroner's inquiry? Yeah that will do it. Every day I'm getting the feeling that our community here on TERB is far more civilized than main street Canada.
I do think the verdict was wrong and could be overturned but completely understand the jury. I personally value a legal system that follows the rules and murder requires intent.

We asked readers what they thought of the verdict in the trial of Marcia and Tony Dooley, who were convicted of murdering their young son Randal. Here's what you had to say:
"What those two despicable people did to that poor child makes me re-evaluate my thoughts on the death penalty. No amount of prison time could be enough! I just hope some thug in prison decides to treat Marcia and Tony as they did little Randal.''
T. Leigh Davis, Winnipeg, April 19
"Thank God for the verdict. I do not know Randy or his parents, all I know is I cried my eyes out every time I read about his story. I hope Tego will find it in his heart, to heal and love and one day be a good parent. I wish him all the best.''
-Kiddy M., Toronto, April 19
"They should get life with no food. Let them suffer.''
-Tess Thomas, Pickering, April 19
"My heart breaks at the thought of what Randal went through. God help the poor wee children -- tears are not enough. From a very sad granny.''
-Nancy Gray, Kingston, April 19
"They got what they deserved. That poor boy was suffering so long and had no one to turn to. He is in a better place now and will no longer have to endure the pain that he was going through.''
-Carla Daley, Scarborough, April 19
"I hope those two rot in jail for what they have done. I pray that the judge gives them the maximum sentence.''
-William Bloxam, Mississauga, April 19
"We should punish the parents. But what about the agencies that have the power to stop and help these children in need? They have to be held accountable as well.''
-Kelly McCulloch, Thornhill, April 19
`"It may not be nice to say, but I wish the death penalty was still enforced because I would put those 2 despicable people at the front of the line.''
-Natasha Ramnath, Toronto, April 19
"They have to be made an example of to show that child abuse will not be tolerated. It makes me sick to my stomach to think of those big lugs beating that poor small child to death.''
-Mary Lou Almeida, Toronto, April 19
"What's that verdict going to do for Randal who suffered so much abuse until his weakened body and spirit could handle no more? My heart aches for this poor child.''
-Carmina Articona, Toronto, April 19
"I am a mother of 2, and it breaks my heart to read what those bastards did to that poor child. How could they? They don't even deserve parole in 10 years, they should stay in jail, period.''
-Yeni Canas, Toronto, April 19
