Josef Fritzl Offered Counseling To Be Able To Cope With The Trauma Of His Trial
I know this isn't really celeb or entertainment news, but the title of this article caught my eye. It talks about how the trial of Austria's Josef Fritzl is so traumatic for him that he is being offered counseling to deal with this horrible experience:
The self-confessed incest rapist is being held at St Poelten prison, next to the court, and its vice president Erich Huber-Gunstofer said his most famous incumbent was being offered psychiatric support."He is being offered psychiatric care to help him through the ordeal of the trial," he said.
"He can watch television because he has access to TV in the communal areas and he can also read the daily newspapers.
"He has told us that he doesn't want to exercise in the yard during the trial but he can do afterwards if he wants to.
"He has two people to protect him at all times. They don't discuss the trial with him but we are offering him therapists and he does share a cell with two other inmates.
"There is no special treatment for Josef F."
OH no, no special treatment for him...other than the fact that he's being offered therapy for the stress of the trial, which is more than he offered his own daughter Elisabeth for the stress of being raped over 3000 times while living in a dark, cold, damp basement for 24 years. And certainly no therapy for her during that horrific time, while she was going through the worst experiences of her life, just oversized sex toys and the fact that he was considerate enough (I really hope you see that as the sarcastic remark it is) to add on another room to the dungeon so he wouldn't have to rape her in front of her children. What a guy.
I'm not going to go into all the details of his horrific crimes...suffice it to say they are legion. If you're really interested, you can always do a Google News Search. But here is the basic gist of life for his poor daughter Elisabeth while she was living in that hole:
