..he actually explained that the reason he kept his daughter locked in a dungeon for twenty-four years, raping her on an almost daily basis…why he fathered multiple children with his own daughter…I mean…why he kept his own daughter as a prisoner and personal sex-slave…

…was because he was protecting her from “boys”….

Does this madness actually exist in this world?

Thank you, PYSIH, for reinforcing my belief that I just cannot possibly belong in a world like this.

No, these aren’t people you’ll see in hell. These are current inhabitants of the hell-on-earth that we are unfortunately trapped in right now, and the actions of these monsters are proof of that.

VIENNA, Austria (AP) — An Austrian theater says it will stage a satiric soap opera centered around Josef Fritzl, a man who allegedly held his daughter captive for 24 years and fathered her seven children.

The 3raum-anatomietheater in Vienna says the show will be titled “Pension Fritzl” — German for “Fritzl’s Bed and Breakfast.” The theater says on its Web site the show will open Feb. 23.

The production’s director is Hubsi Kramar, a well-known Austrian standup comedian who raised eyebrows when he tried to attend Vienna’s Opera Ball dressed as Adolf Hitler.

Fritzl is expected to go on trial in March. He faces charges of murder, rape, incest, false imprisonment and enslavement.

Is it the body or the spirit that constitutes an human being?
One molested child; one broken spirit; one abused person… It is the same as one emotionally murdered person. There should be a murder charge for this kinds of crimes. Someone who is so evil does not have the right to live in society. Gather all these people up in a safe tight facility with bread and water and let them feast on each other!!

Due to the elapse of time and the lack of forensic evidence, prosecutors had feared that they would be unable to support charges of manslaughter for one of his children, Michael, who died shortly after birth in 1997 and whose body Fritzl burned in an incinerator.

But after commissioning a neonatologist, a doctor specialising in newborns, to try and determine whether Fritzl could have been aware that the baby’s life was in danger and knowingly accepted the risk of his death, the prosecution now believes it has enough evidence to proceed with manslaughter charges.

The neonatologist’s confidential findings were leaked to local press and indicate that Fritzl must have been aware that the baby was severely ill but did nothing to prevent his inevitable death.

The expert also found that the newborn could have survived if he had received medical care, the Austrian magazine, News, reported.

Fritzl, 73, a retired engineer, has partially admitted to incarcerating and sexually abusing his daughter Elisabeth, 42, for 24 years in a subterranean dungeon beneath his house in the town of Amstetten.

She was forced to bear seven of his children, three of which were allowed to live with Fritzl and his wife in their upstairs apartment, while the other three were condemned to dwell in the dank cellar with their mother, never seeing the light of day until they were released by police on April 26.

The neonatologist’s report to the court said the baby was born with a “severe illness”, the symptoms of which were breathing problems, which were “clearly recognisable” as “life threatening” even to a layman, and were worsening by the hour, according to News.

“Josef Fritzl must have known that the child would die without adequate medical treatment,” the News reported the neonatologist as saying.

The breakthrough in the investigation means that, if the jury accepts the expert’s findings and declares Fritzl guilty of manslaughter, he could face a maximum sentence of lifetime imprisonment.

The charges are expected to be completed by the end of the autumn and the trial is to take place in November.

Meanwhile, the three incest children who had a normal life with Fritzl and his wife Rosemarie, 69, are unable to return to school due to the immense interest by international press reporters, who besieged the schools in the area expecting the arrival of Lisa, 15, Monika, 14 and Alexander, 12.

A school authorities spokesperson said that due to the pressure from the media the children would be receiving private tuition at their home at a secret location close to the Amstetten hospital where they had been receiving psychological counselling, despite earlier reports that they would be returning to school.

Josef Austrian legal experts say prosecutors are exploring charging Josef Fritzl with slavery for locking his daughter away in a cellar dungeon for 24 years.

Prosecutors have been soliciting opinions on the slavery option, which would carry a longer prison sentence than the incarceration and incest charges he currently faces.

Fritzl also faces rape and manslaughter charges; however, the evidence supporting the charges is considered weak.

Austria’s slavery statute carries a 20-year prison sentence while incarceration, the strongest of the current charges, has a 10-year maximum.

Prosecutors expect to formally charge the 73-year-old Fritzl by the end of September and begin his trial in December.
