Et Cetera

"What you have done is thoroughly evil," pronounced U.S. District Judge Garrett Brown as he sentenced Arthur D. Seale to the maximum: 95 years in prison, without parole. Seale, 45, an ex-Exxon employee, kidnapped senior Exxon official Sidney Reso in his own driveway and stuffed him, bound and bleeding, into a storage locker while negotiating his ransom. The entombed Reso slowly died an agonizing death. Seale and his wife Irene were tracked down by investigators. It was she who divulged the damning details of the kidnapping, and is now in prison, soon to face her own sentencing.
