PORT ALLEN, Louisiana — A convicted child molester has undergone surgical castration in order to be released from prison on parole. Francis Phillip Tullier, who had faced hundreds of molestation counts involving young girls, pleaded guilty to three counts in 1999 and was sentenced to 27 years in prison. He is now 78. His lawyer, Nathan Fisher, said the deal stipulated that Tullier would only be eligible for parole once he underwent castration at his own expense. A sheriff's investigator said the surgery was done Thursday after being delayed several years while Tullier was treated for various medical issues. The Advocate newspaper reports that Tullier is due for release next week. He will live in Iberville Parish and has to register as a sex offender. www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41906800/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/ |

He faced 100's of counts and plead guilty to 3? Seems like and extreme plea bargain to begin with.

Makes you wonder how long he was doing it, and how much was unreported.

Absurd. I doubt he is able to do much harm with his pee-pee at his age. Deal is-- how stupid are people?? If this guy has multiple counts of molesting children, (I was not able to see his charges in this story), IF he is true pedophile they SAY they cannot be rehabbed, and that it is not about sex, but power and control. Assuming that is true-- what would castrating a man that age achieve? If he is dangerous, he is still dangerous, castrated or not. Seems this may be to appease someone that does not get IT, IMO. Let's hope he is not a child killer or violent sexual predator, because if he is this will do nothing to stop him.

 ...wouldn't diminishing testosterone levels with age make this a largely empty gesture to secure his parole? and people get "their jollies" from more than just their pants, so wte?

Is it possible he could take testosterone and be back in action -even at his age?

A TRUE pervert can rape and kill without a functioning body part. That is why this is dumb, but if some people feel better--

Would there have been any chemical or drug to stop Mary Kay Letourneau?

I think child molesters and rapists should be at the very least, locked away forever to never see the light of day.... and there are some that I think should be introduced to the death penalty up close and personal. Protecting children has nothing to do with lib or conservative, dem or repub.

PORT ALLEN — A West Baton Rouge Parish man underwent surgical removal of his testicles Thursday as part of a 1999 plea agreement in which he admitted to molesting three underage female victims on several hundred occasions, a sheriff’s investigator said. Francis Phillip Tullier, 78, was arrested in 1997 and charged with more than 500 counts of molestation involving six young girls between 6 and 12 years of age throughout the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, Sheriff’s Maj. Richie Johnson said. Tullier was taken from the West Baton Rouge Parish Detention Center to the LSU Earl K. Long Medical Center at around 5 a.m. to have the surgery, Johnson said. He was back in jail by 5 p.m., Johnson said. The hospital’s Chief of Urology, Dr. Kenneth M. Blue, did not perform the procedure, but explained that a surgical castration requires the patient to be put to sleep briefly under general anesthesia during the 10-minute operation. “You make a small skin incision in the scrotum and remove the testicles. It’s a very minor procedure. Mentally, obviously, it’s not so minor,” he said. “Recovery time would be minimal, maybe a day or two,” Blue added. “The skin would be healed within seven to 10 days.” Attorney Nathan Fisher represented Tullier in the 1990s when the plea agreement was made. On Thursday, Fisher said he suggested Tullier be physically castrated to keep his client from having to die behind bars. “They had enough to send him up for two or three life sentences,” Fisher said. “He had no chance of getting out of prison unless we did something unusual. … I didn’t want chemical castration, I wanted the whole deal. “The victims probably weren’t happy, but I’m not representing them,” Fisher added. “It took a lot of discussion, it wasn’t something done on a whim.” Johnson, the investigator now handling the case, said the sexual assaults took place in the area of Bird Heights, which is now a part of Addis. One victim who came forward in 1997 told authorities Tullier assaulted her hundreds of times. Five other victims contacted investigators to also accuse Tullier, Johnson said. www.2theadvocate.com/news/117382053.html |

No plea deals. If they did the crime they should do all the time.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

Very stupid. This isn't going to stop him if he's a true pedophile. It's darned sad that those in charge of paroles actually believe this will work!

Why waste the cost of a hospital. We had a tool called a ball cruncher that was designed to castrate hogs and bulls. Took about 30 seconds and worked well and a lot cheaper.  |

anybody have the number of the prison bus driver? I wonder what would happen if the prison bus driver hit a pot hole and lost control accidently hitting this guy. Damn DOT should fix those pot holes. I am sorry but if any child molestor touch either of my nieces, I would sacrifice myself to life in prison, to put a guy like this 6 feet under.

Why waste the cost of prison? Just lock him in a room with the parents of the kids he molested. Problem solved, tax money saved. |

People like this is why I could never be a police officer. If I arrested him I would be the one going to jail. He would be at the funeral home.

I'm a rational human being and recognize that there are both genetic and psychological reasons for becoming a child molester. That said - chop their dick and hands off and then throw them in with the general prison population for the rest of their lives. |
