(Newser) – A 14-year-old girl strangled by her father was carrying his baby, prosecutors revealed yesterday. Miguel Matias, 36, has confessed to killing his daughter because he caught the teen typing  "sexy things" on her computer, reports the New York Daily News. Authorities have now discovered that DNA taken from girl's fetus matches her father's. Her naked body was tossed in a boiler in the family's apartment building. Matias has now been charged with rape and incest, in addition to murder.

Reader77286304, it always amazes me when people start commenting that murderers shouldn't be punished for their crimes. It begs to question, if the child was your child and a man raped and killed her, would you still be saying killing him is not the answer?

Are you kidding? How about instead of Killing him, we just "put him to sleep"
