I wonder how many of the "he's done enough time" crowd would feel if he:
-played for a team they hated
-recently moved into their neighborhood
-wasn't even a football player but just some guy

Some of y'all need to take off your purple and gold glasses.

So if a guy out of prison moves into your neighborhood you think he should be sent back to prison for nothing more than moving into your area?

Stop barking up this bullshite tree. He played like 4 games here and I'm sure a ton of people in this thread weren't even old enough to remember them. Pretending Cecil is a beloved LSU figure that people make excuses for is BS.

" I never would so we should lock him up forever, right?"


No, but if a psychiatrist and a judge think he is still a danger to society, then keep him in there as long as the law allows. 1) he was caught 3 times. I wonder how many times he wasn't. Let's not be naive. 2) he broke his probation with LA - he knew the deal and he didn't keep it. 3). He had some reported incident in prison.

While unethical, if the prison guard is receptive to it, what is wrong with that? If anything, that would point to him not being a sexual deviant.

No, he didn't. He has never served a day in prison for the crimes he committed in Louisiana. He was sentenced to probation for those crimes, and he violated it. Florida sentenced him to 13 years for being convicted of a felony for the third time in his life. Lots of three time losers get serious jail time, Cecil was no different. Now he might, might have to serve a bit of time for violating his Louisiana probation, which means it is time he realistically might have had to serve in the first place, but didn't because he was shown mercy for his first and second offenses.

The issue is they want to extend his time
No, they don't. He was sentenced to time in the first place that he HAS NEVER SERVED. In exchange for not serving that time, he agreed to obey the rules of his probation. He didn't, so not they are considering making him serve that time he got out of serving in the first place. It's not that complicated, and it certainly is no injustice.

He broke into two womens' apartments in Louisiana and has never spent a day in jail for either of them. The question is whether they decide he should still end up serving some time for either or both of those crimes.

The logic of some posters, and Collins' attorney, is that:
1) the LA convictions factored into the13 year sentence in FL, and
2) if all three convictions were in LA, the probation violation time would have been served concurrently with the burglary conviction.

There are also some posters that feel like 13 years is a long time for relatively "minor" offenses. I'm sure his victims, who woke up to a crazy person masturbating in their bedrooms, don't consider the offense to be minor.

Shockingly, yes.

Yes, they did. What those people are forgetting though is that receiving a heavier sentence as a repeat offender is not the same as serving time for the original offense. If he had served 5 years for those two LA convictions before committing the FL offense, they still would have been factored into his FL sentence as prior convictions. That's the same thing they are considering doing now except that he would be serving the time for those first two offenses now instead of before the FL time.

Cecil deserves whatever they give him. He forced his way into the two apartments in BR, assaulted one girl in one, sexually assaulted the other. Good friends with the girls and their families. Do you know the different levels of sexual assault and or rape. Look it up, it will make you very angry what a person can get away with legally.

What actually happened, what he could have been charged with, and what he was actually charged with (sexual battery, I believe) may be different things.

Some people believe the "I was just watching them sleep" story and think Cecil, while sort of an oddball, was basically harmless. I don't think that's true, and I suspect your friends KNOW it isn't true.

You'd pass on a scholarship offer to LSU because a pervert got kicked off the team fifteen years ago? Got it!

For the record, Cecil Collins created his own problems, not LSU and not TigerDroppings or it's members.

Only one "cure" for repeat sexual deviants...
What's wrong with society is we don't swing them by the neck like we used to. Anyone who repeatedly breaks into occupied homes to masturbate on women is just one step away from being a serial rapist/murderer. I say go ahead and do us all a favor and put them down.
