There are more grammar errors in this article than the mistakes the police department made. Anyways.... this guy saved us a lot in tax dollars. RIP to this little girl.

May he eternally choke on wad of Satan's ... well, you get the idea.

They think it was suicide..or maybe Bubba just helped him along. After all, even Bubba's have kids,

He haged himself? Is that something like swallowing a cup of ground glass? I hope so.

Anyways? Grammatical errors? GCK- WYO?

He killed an innocent baby girl - haging's too good for him! Wretched pun over wretched copy editing aside, rest in peace baby girl!

He got it all backwards. He should've killed himself BEFORE he went near that girl.

This story isn't about him, nor should it be.

RIP little one.

Brunn was fund unresponsive in his cell...

Ah, anothertop quality MSNBC editing job! Does anyone at MSNBC know how to write a complete sentence without grammatical errors and spelling mistakes?

I hope she gets her eternal vengeance on him in the afterlife!

Hanged himself.

Ri-i-i-ight.

That's pretty old school, you know, 'giving' a prisoner something to 'hang himself' with.

I. Love. It.

Now the taxpayers won't be burdened with decades of publicly funded representation and appeals... to say nothing of his incarceration and health care.

Good riddance.

Thanks Dude for saving the taxpayers lots of money for years you didn't deserve to live.

Gray or grey? Both are correct. But how is it that he "was fund unresponsive"? Now that's a tuff one to comprehend. Just imagine MSNBC response if it was Bush or a Republican that wrote this garbage. What a joke! HYPOCRITES!

The cowardly ba$turd took the easy way out. Rest in Peace little one.

you people with your grammar and spelling test, will you just shut up and write about the story, nobody cares about the grammatical error, they got the job and you didnt, soo shut the hell up, simple okay geeesus.

you guys arent so perfect either.

the story should have been about the girl & no pictures of him. at least he saved the county lots of money.

Proper writing technique is not a requirement at a school of journalism. A political correctness is.

This sentence is grammatically incorrect. Embarrassed?

Ah, anothertop quality MSNBC editing job!

And to you as well!

In the old days like may be the 1800 they would give a man that they thought to be guilty of a crime, a gun to kill himself rather then be embarrassed going to Court, and most of them did kill themselves and saved the cost of keeping them in prison. Not a bad idle if you think about it.

Oh I like that idea Chuck. Just like in the movie The Count of Monte Crisco - however there was no bullet so the offender had to suffer.

Uh, clothes are hung - people are hanged. No charge for the remedial English.

Gumps - I charge you with being a wad stuck to a wall.

mojo77 - Rock on, and don't let some insolent dolt silence you.

Young lady, rest in peace.

sonar guy

Gumps - I charge you with being a wad stuck to a wall.

mojo77 - Rock on, and don't let some insolent dolt silence you.

Young lady, rest in peace.

Gumps wasn't insolent - he was pointing out ignorance. You want to promote ignorance??

"Hanged" is the right word but, hey, at least he didn't say the guy was well hung.

"Hanged" is the right word but, hey, at least he didn't say the guy was well hung.

Buh dum tish

Notanidiotlikeolegunny, the ignorance is that both are grammatically correct. It is only in the last 20 years that "hanged" has become more used with people. Back in the 1960's, if you said hanged, would would have been considered wrong by most people.

I am glad this scum killed himself Good riddance.

"Hung", "Hanged", WTF makes the difference? Do you idiots that argue back and forth over every little spelling or grammatical error not realize that you only suceed in making yourselves look like petty, moronic children. Whether you're right or wrong, you ALL come across as juvenile little weasles.

You are judged by the way you act, how you speak, the clothes you wear and if you want your written comments to be taken seriously, you ARE judged by how and what your write.

A man was hanged for his role in a murder.

But you will never say you hanged a picture on a wall.

Get it?

• spelt - spelled
• dreamt - dreamed
• hung - hanged

All are correct... some are archaic, some are used in different English speaking countries, and others have acquired different meanings over the centuries... nonetheless, all are correct!

...you only suceed in making yourselves look like petty, moronic children. Whether you're right or wrong, you ALL come across as juvenile little weasles.

RDF-44 - considering your name calling, do you really think that you come across any better than those whom you criticize? It's much more juvenile to call others names than to correct grammar and spelling errors. Like wilsonaide stated, if someone wants to be taken seriously, he or she needs to know how to use proper grammar, spelling and punctuation. It's gotten to the point that it's almost painful to read these posts because only about one out of ten people know the correct use for words such as their, they're and there, to, two and too, your and you're, etc.

BTW, you misspelled "weasles". It should be spelled weasels. Not only do you point a finger at others and call them names, you are too lazy to click on spell-check.

who cares, now shut up already

I agree, but I wish he had to live out his miserable days like the captive monster he is/was.

doolittle13: why should your tax dollars allow him three meals a day, a bed to sleep in, books to read, tv to watch, even college classes would be paid for; just so he can live out the rest of his life? He sure didn't give any of that to the 7 year old girl. Better for him to be dead, but I would have liked to see it at the hands of Bubba and not suicide.

Better for him to be dead, but I would have liked to see it at the hands of Bubba and not suicide.

Oh agreed for sure!! Just thought he could suffer in the days leading up to Bubba's wrath.

He didn't commit suicide to do US a favor, he did it to do himself a favor. In which case I am against it - because he should receive no favors.

Completely contrary to the business of courts, lawyers and prisons which are a multi trillion dollar enterprise, the new president and congress should pass laws streamlining this system and finding a devils island to throw these criminals on. It is a shame to spend $30,000 a year, feeding clothing and protecting this shi*.

Mexico has a devil's island, María Madre, in the Islas Marias island chain 70 miles west of the Mexican mainland. It has a capacity for 5000 prisoners.

When we talk theoretically about how we'd like to die, no one ever says "suicide after murder" or "texting while in traffic" and yet so many people make choices that lead them to such tragic endings. Weird, that.

I wonder who did what to the perp that made him want to do something like this - and then act on the urge (not impulse - he'd been thinking about it for weeks before, based on things he said to neighbors). I'm guessing someone molested/raped him when he was a kid. I am relieved that he's no longer going to be a threat or burden to anyone again. But I can't help wondering what secrets died with Brunn. He was pretty messed up for being as young as he was.

We're all better for it. The prisons are overcrowded. He likely wouldn't have ever been a contributing member of society. The only shame is that he waited till after he terrorized and murdered a child to off himself, rather than doing it before he got that warped.

Oh, you know, this sort of thing used to happen to guys like this... now where did that belt come from?

Leah Ryan, he was convicted on Tuesday after electing to plead guilty. He was then sentenced to life without parole....as the first paragraph states.

No guarantees on that. Glad he's dead. Hope it was slow.

What is happening to this world and our society? Where are these freaks and scum coming from? Everyday I read a story like this only the creep doesn't off himself usually. Any criminal act against a child should be automatic life in prision at the very minimum! and I believe that is a generous sentance. These people should not be allowed to ever and I mean ever be allowed back on the street? Legislation has to be changed. If you are convicted and found guilty of the crime of phedophilia you should serve the remaninder of your life behind bars. There is no cure for this. These people can not be rehabilitated this is their sexual preferance this is what arouses them! You can not cure a human being of this! WE should start a nationwide pettition to have our government change this and make into law and make it iron clad so the freakin Lawyers do not find a way to change it or make money off of it! We have the power to stop this particular crime if people would just ban together. We have to stop this unspeakable horror against our children!

Try reading.

"two days after being sentenced to life"

Let's hope.

I really hope so, and I hope he suffered every second of it.

I have to agree with you there, but I would have prefered that he had kill himself before he had murdered a little girl. She would still be alive, and I could even find sympathy for him. As it turned out, well, we all know how it turned out.

Would be nice if they put "Old Sparky" back in commission. Murdering pedophiles don't deserve to live comfortably or to die mercifully. They had no compassion for their victims. We need a deterrent to these types of crimes. Maybe if they saw a few of their buddies fry in a chair, might put enough fear into them to change their ways.

I hope his suicide was excruciating, and took 3 days.

umm, no. He was smart enough to "cut her" to prevent being reported. Hope he had some help with the hanging so that he was able to experience the terror she felt. stupidity does not trump evil.

@camille: frequently stupidity is, indeed, mistaken for evil... Either way it only damages our own souls to think such horrible thoughts and wish terrible things on one another no matter what the circumstances. Let them both rest in peace if for no other reason than we don't deserve the pain that comes from harboring malice in our hearts.

AngieS

Just asking....are you a parent?

AngieS is right. Getting all flustered up with hatred only damages yourself. Hatred is like a disease. It grows inside you and extends to people who don't deserve it. Every little sliver of it you hold onto, even with 'justification', corrupts you. If you don't do anything about it, in time you will be a bitter old wretch who hates everything around you.

You don't have to like him, and you shouldn't forget people like him are out there. Hatred can blur your vision and cause you to see threats that aren't there. Criminals can latch onto that hatred, play on it and trick you into thinking they are the opposite of those things you hate.

Keeping your mind and heart clear lets you be vigilant without being paranoid, overbearing or gullible. If you are a parent, you owe that much to your child.

AngieS,

Good for you for standing up to make an excellent point. Two lives were cut short and senselessly destroyed.

Granted, the guy hurt a small child, but the courts dealt with that issue. He was handed a sentence that fit the crime..

We are sometimes so full of misdirected anger that we lash out convicted criminals or politicians from the safety of behind a computer keyboard. And sometimes we forget that there are real people behind the headlines. These real people have thoughts, feelings, and imperfections, like the rest of us. Some wear their faults on their sleeves and do heinous things, but those folks live with personal demons. I hope more folks can learn to feel empathy toward other humans.

Why do you assume that feeling bad about his crime had anything to do with his suicide? He's probably a sociopath and can't feel guilt. I figure he committed suicide because he was looking at spending the next 60 or so years on prison. I'm glad he's gone, and that's said without any hate. He was a simply a waste of taxpayer dollars - just a poisoned piece of meat to be warehoused at a cost of $30k a year (and that's just when he's young and healthy - all that free health care adds up the older they get). So good riddance.

With all due respect Ed98208 and others,

Since when is our justice system defined in dollars and cents?

Yes, warehousing prisoners can cost money, but even the costly most poisoned piece of meat (your term, not mine,) is afforded the most basic human rights. One of those rights is the right to life. To take away a life is a matter of the courts and justice system. To follow the constitution and ensure equal rights for every person is worth the cost.

AngieS, I doubt his suicide had anything to do with his feelings of guilt. I would say it had more to do with the life sentence he was given. And are you proposing he be "rehabilitated" so that he could be free to do it again? As per matters of one's soul, if you read the King James Version, you will see that Christ said, "In as much as ye have done unto the least of these, ye have done unto me also." When do we finally say the children have suffered enough. The problem is that there is little to no punishment given these perverts who prey on small children. Sorry, but I don't feel anger over his death, nor do I feel compassion for him. I only feel that his own death was a cop out. He certainly doesn't deserve martyrdom. His actions were his own and in committing suicide he was doing what most of society does today; running away from his problems. Pity he didn't give that little girl a chance to run.

Well said, Cirnobyl.

"Don't lower yourselves to the level of unfeeling, uncaring hatred that only scars your soul." I think it's too late.

You know what -- I don't care about HIS pain. He made the choice to stalk this child, lure her to his apartment, raped her, then killed her to make sure she didn't tell anyone what he'd done. He clearly knew it was wrong to rape her or he wouldn't have killed her to silence her. Then he stuffed her body in a dumpster and joined the search to find her. That must have been some kind of sick thrill for him -- he already KNEW what had happened and where she was.

I am so sincerely sick and tired of the 'he couldn't help it, he had a bad childhood' defense. He CHOSE to do this. Nothing he did was an involuntary action.

At least he had the decency to save the taxpayers of Georgia the cost of supporting his worthless waste-of-oxygen existence for another 40-50 years.

Condolences to the family of this little girl. May they find some kind of peace.
