"This is a man who had wanted to have two families." Ugh!

I don't know if any of you are following the Josef Fritzl trial, but I think I'm going to have to stop. And just in case I couldn't do it alone, the rest of the trial is going to be secret anyway. The details that have been coming out are so unbelievably awful that I feel physically ill. And the defense that he is not a monster because if he were a monster, he wouldn't have let her have the children and continue feeding them is insane. I know someone has to defend him, and they have to say something, but really? Letting his daughter have his children and only taking half of them away from her is totally cooler than if he were to use some form of birth control?! The half he didn't take from her have physical and sociological issues. They have a stoop, which I guess means they are hunchbacked, because they've spent their entire lives in a place that has ceilings that are only five feet high. Plus the fact that they've only ever interacted with four other people, have rotting teeth and gums, limited vocabulary and language skills, and undoubtedly some serious emotional issues from seeing their father/grandfather repeatedly rape their mother.
