Child killer in for three life terms
The Bellend of the Month for July 2013 is Aaron Schaffhausen. He is a 35-year-old father from Wisconsin found to be sane when he killed his three young daughters last July, and this July, he was sentenced to three life sentences without the possibility of parole. St. Croix County Judge Howard Cameron said the lives of each sister (11-year-old Amara, 8-year-old Sophie, and 5-year-old Cecilia) were each so important that Schaffhausen had to serve each sentence consecutively. "Each child has to be recognized as an individual girl," Cameron said. "To make it concurrent would diminish what happened to those young girls." I couldn't agree more. But one should remember that Schaffhausen's second and third life sentences are only symbolic in nature because he will already be rotting in jail for the rest of his life anyway, and rightly so because Schaffhausen - the man who helped genetically make those girls and shape them - became the darkness, the boogeyman, and the monster under the bed. He was so evil that he took their unconditional love for him and used their love to lure them close enough so he could kill them. Their last memory is what an evil killer their dad was. The girls' aunt remembered them as "amazing people."
