THE STORY: Barring a successful appeal, Juan Jose Ponce will spend the rest of his life behind bars. An Ector County jury sentenced the 40-year-old Odessan to six life sentences Monday - three of which will be served consecutively - on six charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child.

THE POLL: Do you think justice is adequately served with a punishment of six life sentences and a $35,000 fine?
>> Yes, that's more than enough: 21 percent (7 votes).
>> No, that's the worst they can give him?: 35 percent (12 votes).
>> It's fair: 44 percent (15 votes).

Reader Comments
Many of you have expressed concerns about some of the harsh anonymous comments from readers. To remedy that, we are introducing new features. You can create your own blog, publish your news and share your photos with the community. Once you fill out a simple form and leave a verifiable e-mail address, you can set up your profile page. It will display all of your contributions and allow you to track issues and easily connect with others.

We want our site to be a place where people discuss and debate ideas that foster stronger communities. We built this for you. Please take care of it. Tolerate broad thinking, but take action against obscene or hateful material. Make it a credible and safe place worth preserving and sharing.
