Reality television as behaviour modification therapy

Karla Homolka's kind of scary and I really wouldn't want her living next door to me but if she's got to be let out (and she has to be because a deal is a deal even when we don't want it to be) I think we should give her her own reality show.

I'm thinking half an hour, once a week, because she's not really all that interesting and we don't want to have to expend too much time on her; but with a webcam so we can get up to the minute breaking news, when necessary. Ideally on the CBC becuase they could make it seem classy but more likely on CTV (or perhaps one of the American networks could run with it. I haven't worked out the details yet). The purpose of this is two-fold:
  1. it allows us all to keep a fairly close eye on a nasty nasty woman who's going to do Something Unspeakable to someone as soon as she can find someone to lead her around by the nose
  2. the positive reinforcement of constant camera time might reduce her desire to do anything Unspeakable for fear of losing the spotlight. This could be exploited with stipulations that cancellation will follow any trouble with the law
We could have her in the palm of our hands. The tiniest mis-step and we nail her ass to the wall.
