SocraticGadfly: Josef Frankl – Only in America Austria

Josef Frankl – Only in America Austria

Sounding like he has just come off an American New Ageish talk show or a softcore 12-step rehab program alleged Austrian incest monster Josef “I’m not a monster” Fritzl now claims he’s addicted to incest.

Does this guy have American trial lawyers representing him? He’s already airing out for public consumption three different defense lines, including, “I’m not that bad,” “I’m addicted” and the insanity line.

What next? “Every Austrian does it”?

On a more serious note, child sexual abuse guesstimates run as high as one in three girls and one in six boys in America. So, if that becomes a fourth line of defense for Frankl, it will be the closest encounter yet he’s had with the truth.
