woodfaceI'm not sure what people are expecting from the Dutroux trial.
The parents of victims have been complaining that Dutroux is not showing any respect during court (he constantly behaves like he's bored, acts as if he's sleeping etc). And all I can think is; "What the hell did you expect?". We're talking about a man who has abused children, killed them and is most likely involved in a childporn network. He knows no jury will ever let him go free. So he's having fun for the last time. He's doing everything to get as much attention as possible and they're playing right into it.
I wonder if those parents really expected him to get up in court, cry and beg for forgiveness. I say it's pretty naive to expect a man like Dutroux to feel anything coming close to remorse. And even if he does, he won't show it. What is the point? No one is ever going to forgive him for his actions.
