Josef Fritzl Found Guilty Of Raping Daughter For 24 Years
Austrian Father Josef Fritzl has been found guilty of raping his daughter Elisabeth in a cellar for 24 years. He also fathered seven children with her and neglected an infant son die without a medical help. Josef Fritzl pleaded guilty to incest, 3,000 counts of rape, enslavement, deprivation of liberty, coercion and murder.
At first, 73-year-old Fritzl denied all the charges but later admitted his guilt after watching 11 hours of videotaped testimony of his daughter inside the court.
It was actually almost a quarter of a century crime unfolded as Josef Fritzl, unsuspected by many locked her 18-year-old daughter Elisabeth in his secret cellar way back in 1984. His daughter lived in the cellar for 24 years with continuous contact from her father who rapes her whenever he visits. Elisabeth gave birth to seven children between 1989 and 2003. One of the children, an infant died shortly after birth in 1996, was burnt by Fritzl in a furnace and scattered the ashes on their garden.
Josef Fritzl who incredibly able to lead a double life told his 69 -year old wife Rosemarie, that their daughter Elisabeth ran away to join a sect. Josef also made to believe that Elisabeth’s three of the children were left at his doorstep and then adopted them. The cellar was discovered in April 2008, after Kerstin (age 19), his eldest child with Elisabeth was rushed to the hospital. Fritzl charade ended when the Austrian authorities arrested him because they became suspicious about Kerstin’s illness.
Elisabeth (now age 42) and family are currently located in a a secret location while the authorities attempt to help them build a new life. Fritzl expressed his deep regret after the Austrian court sentenced him with life imprisonment in an Austrian prison with psychiatric facility.

Josef Fritzl Found Guilty Of Raping Daughter For Over 24 Years…
A horrific tale of a monster father who locked up his poor 18 year old daughter for 24 years in a cellar and fathered seven children to his unsuspecting wife of over 50 years.
…
And I thought all along that Natasha Kampusch story was the most horrific tale that I ever heard. Grabe, heto mayroon pa palang mas malala. What is happening to the world today? Ganito ba talaga sa bansang Austria?
Hay naloka ako ha? I find this story very disturbing…
nalito me sa family tree ah

Grabe talaga ang kaso na iyan. I agree with Reesie’s comment dun sa post nya about this topic: We thought Hannibal Lecter is most villanous of all characters but he never came close to Joseph Fritzl, the embodiment of evil in real life.
Phew.

Here is a comment that I would like to make
about Josef Fritzl and his wife Rosemarie …
Clearly that “person†(and one has to stretch the
definition of the word “person†in order to apply
it to that creature) known to the world as Josef
Fritzl was / is the DEVIL-INCARNATE —- AND
he should burn in h*ll for all of eternity for his evil.
In addition, it also needs to be stated that no person
on earth should allow themselves be fooled for
even one moment by the lies of “I didn’t knowâ€
that are currently being claimed by that lying
and equally evil wife of this evil DEVIL!!!
That vile, evil, perverted, disgusting, devil
b**tch of a wife of that MONSTER KNEW!!
SHE KNEW!!! SHE KNEW!!! SHE KNEW!!!
She KNEW the whole time (or at least had
literally no excuse whatsoever to have not
at least ‘suspected’ something was amiss!!!)
She is a LIAR and she must think the entire world is
as perverted as both she and her husband are and
that by coming up with that ridiculous and flimsy
excuse that she can then convince the rest of
the world to then respond to her own complicity
the same way she chose to respond to that of
her husband’s evil — by ‘turning a blind eye’.
BOTH of them are utter DEVILS and one
cannot help but to hope that they both burn
in h*ll for all of eternity for their evil acts!!!!
She expects anyone on this planet who has even
half-a-brain-stem to believe for even one fraction
of a moment that she didn’t know anything at all?!?!
Give me a break!!!
For crying out loud–unless this woman is Helen
Keller –she has NO EXCUSE at all to not have
known (or at least ’suspected’) something strange
and conspiratorial was going on regarding her
daughter’s whereabouts and situation and that the
husband’s stories were just far too incredulous
and absolutely made no sense in the least bit!!!
After all — think about it — daughter runs away as a
very young teen; daughter mysteriously disappears
at the age of 18 (an age when she can both make
her own decisions and choose to get away from
her father and even bring charges against him); the
(convicted-rapist/arsonist) father gets a letter from
daughter 1 month after her disappearance which
ridiculously claims she has joined a cult and does
not want to have any contact with the family – yet
amazingly then later chooses (for 3 years in a row)
to simply leave 3 of her newborn babies on the
doorstep of very home that she tried to run away
from at least 2 X’s before and is “allegedly thoughtâ€
to have finally left in order to join some sort of
“phantom†cult (a “cult†which, unlike every other
cult, just somehow, seemingly has no desire to try
to indoctrinate the youth from birth, but rather it
simply allows it’s members to select a home –one
which in fact, is both not a part of the cult AND is
the very home from which the member ran in order
to join the cult —to raise their babies and kids of
the cult members) –ALL THE WHILE – the father
forbids ANYONE to ever for ANY REASON dare to
go ANYWHERE NEAR the mysterious basement
(which he always keeps locked, disappears to for
hours and days on end; has ‘unseen’ bathroom
equipment installed; and has a cement-barricaded
door installed which both has a security-code and
which was so complicated it needed inspection
by local government authorities in order to install).
Just 2 years before the “discovery†of what this
monster (and his devil wife via her complicity of
silence) did to their poor child – another young girl,
and former kidnap victim, was also found in Austria.
It was discovered that the other young kidnap /
rape victim had disappeared 8 years earlier and
had been held in a basement / dungeon where
she had been repeatedly raped the entire time
by the individual who had also kidnapped her.
Now —- even if the public was expected to
simply throw all common sense to the wind
and accept this monster’s devil-wife’s excuse
that she “didn’t knowâ€, say, in the beginning …
it still stands to reason that after hearing about
the case of the other young girl 2 years earlier
—– this creep’s equally creepy wife would
have said something to herself like, say …
â€â€â€Hmmm … a young girl who disappeared 8 years
ago, out of no where, has been discovered
to have been held in a basement the entire
time and while there she was repeatedly
raped by the person who trapped her there.
Hmmm … my daughter, who repeatedly tried
to run away from my convicted-rapist husband
as a child has also mysteriously disappeared
– and – my convicted-rapist husband is
always coming across both ‘letters’ and
‘grandchildren’ that were allegedly left
by my daughter (who has vanished
without a trace) — and – meanwhile
my convicted-rapist husband also
has a mysterious basement that he
keeps under lock and key and never
allows anyone to come near — ever.
Hmmm … now I cannot help but to wonder
if that convicted-rapist husband I married
just may have had something to do with
the disappearance of our daughter – and
– the appearance of all these grandkids
and letters – and I also can’t help but to
wonder if that mystery-basement room
of his would, in some way / in any way,
be connected somehow to our child’s
disappearance and / or the mysterious
appearance of all of these grandchildren.â€â€â€
Yes – one would think that – even if this woman
could have claimed ‘ignorance’ earlier – (a lie
which, again, no one with any common sense
should ever consider buying into) – once the
discovery was made of a similar situation 2
years earlier – she then had NO excuse to not
have at least been suspicious of something
about her convicted-rapist husband and his
ever-so-mysterious hidden basement room.
That vicious devil simply did not care at all about
her own daughter – or — she simply cared more
about her own creature-comforts and keeping up
with her middle-class appearances than she did
about the torture being done to her own child.
THAT POOR GIRL’S VILE, DISGUSTING
PERVERTED LYING B*TCH OF A MOTHER
KNEW FULL WELL WHAT WAS GOING ON
– SHE KNEW– SHE KNEW– SHE KNEW!!!
THAT WIFE IS A B*TCH, A DEVIL AND A
VILE PERVERT AND ONE CANNOT HELP
BUT TO TRULY HOPE THAT— SINCE SHE
OBVIOUSLY FELT SOME STRANGE NEED
TO BE SO VERY LOYAL TO THAT DEVIL,
OF A PERVERTED CONVICTED-RAPIST
AND ARSONIST FREAK OF A HUSBAND
OF HERS AND TO CHOOSE TO STAND BY
HIS SIDE FOR A QUARTER OF A CENTURY
ALL THE WHILE THAT HE IMPRISONED
AND ALSO SEXUALLY AND PHYSICALLY
AND MENTALLY TORTURED THEIR CHILD
— SHE WILL CONTINUE TO REMAIN BY
HIS SIDE AS THEY BOTH BURN IN H*LL
TOGETHER FOR ALL OF ETERNITY!!
She is clearly as much of a
pervert and devil as is he!!
Would anyone even be remotely surprised
if further investigation later revealed that
‘Rosemarie Fritzl’ (who is actually trying to
get the world to see her as a co-victim of
her daughter’s horrific nightmare of a life)
was actually just another ‘Rosemary West’
(a woman whose husband also originally –
and falsely – claimed that she had nothing
to do with his unbelievably evil sex crimes)?
What kind of a woman, after all, chooses to marry
(or remained married to) a man who had already
committed and also been convicted of previously
raping another woman and has shown absolutely
no remorse about any of it whatsoever in the least.
SHE KNEW!!! SHE KNEW!!! SHE KNEW!!!
Dear Reader,
What gives you the right to lay such aweful claims on Rosemarie? I assume by your posting that you haven’t done much reseach on the case. In the documentory (all parts are avaible on youtube) they interview tenants who lived above the cellar and even they didn’t hear or seeing anything out of the ordinairy and they were directly above Elizabeth and the children.
Also think of it as a mother mourning her daughter’s disappearance. No one in the family was aware of the abuse that Elizabeth had suffered before the abduction. So she may have just seemed like a flight risk after her first attempt at running away. If you had lost your daughter and all you had of her were letters and her believed to be bastered children, wouldn’t you throw yourself into protecting the children and just enjoying that you get to be near them again?
Your comment about the plumbing is also mute, becuase it was believed by everyone that he was building an extention to take tenants into the house (which he did above the cellar). As well he had started building the cellar when Elizabeth was only 12 years old. That may explain why there was no connection between her disappearance and the building.
I encourage anyone that is interested in Elizaabeth and her children’s story to watch the documentary. My hope is that with the publicity of this case we may be able to stop other cases.
they should arrest him for the rest of his life because he raped his daughter since she was 11, locked her up, had 7 children with her and beat the 7 children and elisbeth up. They should really lock him up for life!
.-= alyse´s last blog ..Influential Blogs of 2007: Where are they now? =-.
My prayers are with the daughter & other family members who didn’t deserve this treatment.
This worthless guy needs to be tied to a race car & dragged around 24 laps, for each year he raped her. Oh yeah, let the wifey watch it happen too.AARGH!!!!
Man is fucked up
Hindi ako makapaniwala na may ganito pa lang tao sa mundo?
Sad… Really really sad…

i just finished the book and i am happy to hear he will be locked up for the rest of his life!! I hope Elisabeth and the kids are doing well and have moved on without to many difficulties.
This man is a monster, no question there. But what is the most fitting punishment? Pain, death, torture? I’m not so sure… I think his mind his probably half lost and half remembering his life. I think having half clarity to remember all the pain you caused, combined with the nightmare of dementia is about the worst he can get for ‘retribution’ . I mean death is too short, and torture will only kill him too fast also. I think the fading in and out of reality with hell on both sides is pretty fucking bad. Nothing is worse than the mind playing tricks on you, and his mind is full of tears and pain, and he will know nothing else… Tough fucking shit, but he deserves every painful moment his mind is producing… I just hope it lasts a long time. Fuck him.
