People are cheering because a vile shit who preyed on kids for decades is getting punished, finally, after too many people looked the other way and his own wife enabled the abuse--to his own adopted children as well, one of his sons came forward to the prosecution on Thursday and offered to testify to his own abuse at the hands of the piece of shit calling himself his father. In other words, he probably adopted children just to have more potential victims which happens all too often.
You have no way of knowing how many of those people cheering have families also affected by pedophile predators, but regardless everyone in that community is welcome to cheer all they want AFAIC, except the other shits who knew what was going on and did nothing to prevent it. And it may have finally made enough of an impact for his scummy wife to finally wake the fuck up when she heard those cheers. I hope she hears them every night for the rest of her life.
He's justly going to jail, not being tortured or even put to death--there's nothing in celebrating that that even qualifies as "macabre".
Although I guess people around here sympathizing with pedophiles shouldn't be much of a shock.
