A judge has ruled that the attorney representing Lam Luong will get a translator. Joe Kulakowski argued in court this morning that he needed a translator to talk to his client. The state argued that Luong understood English and the extra expense was not necessary. A judge made the decision a few minutes ago to allow the translator. Luong is facing four charges of capital murder. In court this morning, Luong was brough into the courtroom wearing a bulletproof vest and shackles. We will have more on this story later today on News 5 and WKRG.com.

Again, yes to translator to exclude loopholes, yes to bulletproof vest..keep him alive long enough to be put in general population in the big house...those guys really, really don’t like baby killers and they have their own kind of justice that’s not pretty.
I am for the death penalty, but not for him. It would probabley take 12 years for him to get what’s coming to him and then a simple “put me to sleep shot”.  I don’t think so!
When I saw one news report, I saw those dark, dark waters and a vision of those babies falling into that scary place sticks in my mind.
Jesus said bring the litttle children to me and that vision is soothing, thinking of Jesus’ arms around them comforting them.
Thats what we do here on earth, we kiss their boo boos and give them hugs when they fall down.
Nothing,nothing is too bad for him.

THATS NOT MAKING HIM FAMOUS THATS JUST SORRY AND SICK.. MY WIFE AND I HAVE 5 CHILDREN WITH THE 6TH ONE ON THE WAY AND I JUST LOOK AT THESE BEAUTIFUL BABYS AND THINK HOW CAN HE DO THIS..  THIS MAN IS SICK AND IS NOT SORRY OR UPSET ABOUT WHAT HE HAS DONE.. I JUST ASK FOR THE COURTS TO GIVE HIM JUSTICE.. GIVE HIM WHAT HE DESERVES.. LET 4 KIDS JUST BEAT HIM WITH A BASEBALL BAT.. GIVE HIM THE DEATH PENALTY WITH PAIN.. MAKE HIM SUFFER JUST LIKE THE 4 BABYS DID…

Judge made the right call on getting a translater. Without one would later open the door to reduce the sentence once it is handed down. With a translator there is no way this man can say he was misrepresented. Will not hear the courts failed to appoint proper counsel. Judge has covered all bases to ensure this man goes to prison and if the death penalty is handed down...IMO should be. That there is no legal loopholes to get it reduced or overturned. IMHO.

WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY ARE WE WASTE TAXER DOLLAR ON THIS JERK!!!! JUST PUT HIM IN JAIL THE WORLD SEE HE`S GUILTY.HE NEEDS TO BE PUNISH LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE, NOT THE CHAIR.

So where is the defense going with this? Is this going to be some vain attempt to find one of those crazy loop-holes? Doesn’t guilty translate the same in every language?

i agree that the s.o.b dont deserve to have a trial but if we have to give him one then lets make damn sure that he dont get off with just a spank spank on his bum. lets make damn sure that he dies for what he did i just wish that we had a death sentance that was slow and painful i agree with the woman that said we sould torture him until hes almost dead and then fatten him up and do it all over again and keep torturing him for years to come.i wish that the mom of those babies were alowed to judge and sentance his sorry ass i wonder how sweet she would be to him

I hate to see him get any special treatment, but the Judge may have been covering all his bases as to not let any loopholes develop. But, his punishment should be swift, as swift as the death of the little ones. My heart aches for those babies...God Bless The Little Children.  dls

What is the judge thinking? He does not need a translator he needs to be put to death without a trial. Why waste taxpayers money for such a piece of garbage. As for the person who said pray for the father, he needs no prayer, he needs to go strait to hell for what he has done. God Bless the little angels, lets pray the last baby is found soon and all of the babies can rest together.

Good for you Judge for keeping things on track.
