A plea deal intended to spare a murdered child's family the horrific details of his death has come back to haunt residents of a historic town in Rhode Island. The killer, an accused cannibal who was a teenager when the crime was committed more than 30 years ago, will be free before the end of the year, according to police.



We do not know what his plans are or if he is [planning on coming back here], but it is definitely something we plan on discussing, a spokesman for the South Kingstown Police Department told AOL News today.



While police have yet to formulate a plan for the impending release of convicted murderer Michael Woodmansee, the father of his victim, a 5-year-old boy named Jason Foreman, is not mincing words.



I do intend, if this man is released anywhere in my vicinity, or if I can find [him], I do intend to kill this man, John Foreman told Rhode Island's WPRO News talk radio today.



According to The Providence Journal, Woodmansee was a withdrawn 16-year-old boy on May 18, 1975 –- the day he lured Jason into his home, stabbed the boy in the heart and hid the small body in a trunk.

Ew... [wrinkles nose]

He should be stuck in prison till the end of the world. Cell locked and the key thrown away.

He should have gotten the death penality for this horrific crime. He does not deserve to be alive nor out in society. I have a feeling, and I hope I'm right, this father will hunt him down and take justice into his own hands. I just hope the father doesn't get caught and gets away with murder like this scum did.

What a tragedy. I hope the father won't kill this man though.

The bottom line is that most convicts, regardless of the crime they were sentenced for, will get out one day.
