Damian Hauschultz, now 17, pleaded guilty in June to one count of first-degree reckless homicide, court records show. Charges of child abuse and substantial battery were dismissed.
“My goal is to ensure that you are incarcerated for just long enough to mature, and develop, to work on education, to work on treatment, work on controlling that angry side,” Manitowoc County Circuit Court Judge Jerilyn Dietz said as she sentenced Hauschultz as an adult Thursday. Prosecutors said Ethan was forced to carry a log around a path for two hours a day for one week while Damian Hauschultz watched. Ethan"struggled to carry his log" and Damian Hauschultz hit, kicked, struck and poked him approximately 100 times, the criminal complaint states.
Why only 20 years?
Where’s the death penalty when you really, really need it?
And there are accounts On Here lecturing people about comparing American Christian extremists to other flavors of violent radical extreme terrorist. There is no functional difference between them.
But religion is the key to life.
Religion, the root of all evil.
Wow, that brought a whole new meaning to bible thumper though 😬
ONLY 20 YEARS for MURDERING a CHILD?! WTF Wisconsin?!
20 years for torture and murder WTAF?
Where were the parents?
Wow. The Wisconsin GOP takes another hit.
God, guns and the whole scam ! Religion as usual the most popular opiate
The little boy who was killed had been removed from his mother's home due to multiple instances of neglect. How he came to be placed with this lot should be investigated. Breaks my heart that all of the people who were supposed to take care of him and protect him, failed him.
These people need to be put away. His dad needs to be punished as well (mom already pled).
Like Ave D
Wrong kind of fanatic, is killing ok in his religion?
CRIMINAL EXTREMISTA QUE PERJUDICA LA RELIGION QUE PROFESA
EXTREMISTA
Must have been a christian judge and jury if 20 years is all he got. Should also go after the co-conspirators, those that assimilated the teen in religious delusions, preachers, parents, etc., should be prosecuted.
Why only 20 years?
There is no God. Jesus is myth like Heracles. Religion is poison.
My best friend is doing 26 years for 1 kilo of cocaine tell me how this adds up!
“Pro life”
Should be life
Had it been an adult who committed the crime, I’d hope he get natural life (no possibility of release). He too was a child when this happened. We can’t condemn children to death even though he himself did just that.
I believe that if you hurt kill or molest a child or anyone else. I can't say what I think should be done but I'm sure you can think what I'm thinking.
Only 20 years? How horrible. It should have been life in prison.
Religion. Smh.
The Christian Taliban
20 seems kinda light 🤔
Sounds like mom wasn’t so grand her self. Maybe she wasn’t ready or in a good situation to have a baby… poor kid. WomensRightsAreHumanRights
Seems most religions bring out the violence in people.
Tortured to death for not knowing Bible verses, what part of the Bible is that in?
gumboqueen3030 He should have got life but he was 14 when he killed the other boy. I believe its illegal Nationwide to send kids under 16 who commit murder to life.
Religion of peace..
Lord help.
I just finished reading through the whole King James Version. I didn’t see anything in there justifying such.
One less Republican voter.
religion is a plague
CheriJacobus Only 20 years. That's outrageous
CheriJacobus How are these extremist Christians unlike the Taliban
Another Q
CheriJacobus 🤬
A republican, for sure.
I find most non religious people to be more caring for human kind. Most religious people just want to judge others. Only met one person in my life that I considered an actual caring Christian. Look at the atrocities that have occurred in the name of religion throughout history
Modern Christians aren't too Christian.
20 years? Seriously. But yes America, keep giving Black men life sentences for weed. Makes sense
I knew before looking, but wanted to check anyway. Manitowoc County, Wisconsin = 61% trump Only the finest people.
I got one for ya. As you have sown, so shall you reap.
I don't understand a sentence less than life for most of these sorts of murders. You take a life like this, they don't get a reprieve nor should you.
Not good enough.
Another example if Taliban style Christian extremism
This has nothing to do with religion it is pure evil!
Too little time...he should spend the rest of his life in prison!
Sounds like your classic Trump supporter. Evangelical Hellvangelical EthanHauschultz
Somewhere in the Bible I’m sure it says thou shalt not kill. Maybe 6 or 5 I’m not sure
Religious fanatics and psychos everywhere…ugh.
Pro life….
Clearly the teen wasn’t practicing what he was preaching. You know—that part about, ‘Thou Shalt Not Kill’
Christians themselves are responsible for the demise of Christianity.
Sorry- we have a mental health crisis in this Country! Religion is not an excuse!
Good people do good, bad people do evil but for good people to do evil you need religion.
Horrific
ONLY 20yrs?! For a TORTUROUS MURDER of a SEVEN YEAR OLD! Seriously?!!
But it's what Jesus would do
…. He should never be let out. What a horrible tragedy.
Charges of child abuse and substantial battery were dismissed for Damian🤨 Glad the whole family went to jail.
The Bible is dangerous literature and a cowardly excuse by some to control other's They never behave the same way Jesus did but believe their actions would make God proud, so they're justified
Religion brings out the best in people.
That's it?
Just 20 years?! Beaten, tortured death of a 7- year -old and only 20 years?! 🤬🤬🤬
Bible Verses? WTF?
