This is so sad. I feel like crying. How can a judge let that man go?

She'd probably hit one of these instead:
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Judges are supposed to follow the law above personal feelings - Unfortunately, some laws are made with an impartial secular tone while others are not

That's true, it's the system that is broken. You would hope that the judges would be pushing for changes to shit like this.

There aren't enough bullets in the world necessary to provide for the amount of holes I want to punch into these shit-lords' bodies...

Yeah, I was talking to my girlfriend about this. She did a little research and found that the guy was left in prison by royal decree as a result of the outcry. Apparently the Saudis also started a child-abuse awareness campaign. Too late for the girl in question, and insufficient to address the religious fundamentalism that resulted in this barbarity. It seems the man was sentenced to death originally, but that the child's mother thought she needed the money more, and so had the death sentence commuted

Why does anyone leave their child alone with a priest anyway?
