Church of God Murderer/Pedophile David Renz Spared the Death Penalty After Murdering Mother As She Tried To Stop Daughter From Getting Raped



A New York man has been sentenced to life in prison without parole Friday for raping a girl and killing her mother after cutting off his ankle monitor last year.

David Renz learned his fate in Onondaga County Court after a judge said he hoped the penalty would comfort the victims' family.

The 30-year-old had pleaded guilty to first-degree murder, admitting that he carjacked Liverpool librarian Lori Ann Bresnahan and her 10-year-old daughter March 14, 2013.  
Renz stabbed and strangled the mother as she tried to stop him from raping her daughter.

He had been under federal monitoring on child pornography charges but cut off his ankle GPS. 

Renz was sentenced earlier this year to 30 years in federal prison for possessing more than 11,000 images and 1,100 videos of child pornography.   Daily Mail

Renz will be sent to a special prison where he will be separated from other inmates because he had his nose broken his first day after arrest.

"SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- David Renz, the murderer and rapist who was sentenced today to life in prison, will live in a special housing unit when he is transferred to the New York State Department of Corrections.

There, Renz won't be locked up in a single cell all day and night, as he has been at the Onondaga County Justice Center jail, his lawyer Ken Moynihan said"

"The day after his arrest, Renz was attacked by another inmate in Onondaga County's jail. His nose was broken. Since then, he has been in protective custody. Moynihan said he's been kept separate from other inmates and locked up almost all the time.

Part of Renz's agreement to plead guilty included the condition that he be kept in a prison program where he would be safe, but less confined than he has been, Moynihan said."  Syracuse.com

Even Renz attorney was shocked by the things he heard and made him more vigilant in protecting his family.


Defense attorney Ken Moynihan says: “I know this last 14 months has been hard on the entire community. Nothing I can say can bring satisfaction to them. Mr. Renz has accepted the harshest penalty available under law.”

"This case has shaken the community," David Renz' defense attorney said in an interview with Michael Benny. "It's shaken me personally. It made me more vigilant with making sure my wife and children are safe."  CNYCentral






Renz mother says she prays for the family every day:


SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Kathleen Renz, David Renz's mother, said she prays every day for the woman her son killed, the child he raped and their families.

Kathleen Renz spoke following her son's sentencing this morning in Onondaga County Court for murdering Liverpool school librarian Lori Bresnahan and raping a 10-year-old girl March 14, 2013 after abducting them in a parking lot of Great Northern Mall.

"We continue to pray for healing and restoration for the Bresnahan family," Kathleen Renz said.
She said her family was relieved to hear the news that her son would not be subject to a death penalty trial for his crimes. But she said her primary relief was not for herself and her family, but for his victims' families.  Syracuse.com

This reminds me of far too many people that I had the incredible misfortune of meeting in the WCG and its splinters like PCG, GCG, and UCG. There was the worst sexual depravity and murderous attitudes and conduct imaginable, and all accompanied by spiritual sounding fluff talk about what great concern they had for their victims.

This is one massive, multi-level tragedy, no doubt.

In many cases, parents know deep down that there is something wrong with their children, but don't have the knowledge or resources to deal with the problem. So, they do what they think is best, hoping that somehow the problem will resolve itself with time and maturity. In too many cases, it requires something really bad to happen before resources become available.

There is no rehab from this, though. The guy was pursuing his deviant sexual pathology, and killed a person who got in the way. Hard core or deviant are words that don't even begin to describe that.

How about let's ask ..."WHERE ARE THE FATHERS??"

Why is the mother always left with all the responsibility of raising the BOYS??

Men need to STEP UP and take responsibility for what they helped create!!

If the men in power in this world were REAL MEN, these kinds of things would not be happening with BOYS!

First off, how about getting rid of all the disgusting PORN all over the place.

Do WOMEN?, come up with this idea and have control over internet and TV, etc...NO, it is MEN!!

Boys need good male role models in the homes and this is not happening.

This poor kid obviously had nothing. Not even support from ministers in "so called" God's church.

Those so called "minister's" are never any help with the women in those churches(if that is what you still call them). This is because they ARE NOT REAL MEN, LIKE JESUS CHRIST!!

This all could have been prevented if REAL MEN were there!

The rule is: If ever forced into a car or a private place, the time to fight like hell is NOW and as in public as possible. Scream, yell, shout and let every oz of adreneline in your body punch, scratch, bash and bite and do it NOW. Never wait to see how it goes.

As with any group, church or otherwise, there are individual pathologies, and one might have a personal experience with a few, this is a rather large exaggeration in my experience and view. Usually the one who suffers sees this as something that must be "everywhere" when it simply is not.

They had Hervert wanker Armstrong as the example to follow.

Wanna know what happened to all the men? Go to the Angry Harry site and find out. It's not a mystery; except to the media and the airheads who follow them.

The Angry Harry site is one of the most fu**ed up and misogynist sites imaginable.

I'm not surprised that people influenced by the Armstrongs are liking it, though.
