It is obvious that Kimo Wires is expressing a hope that the man accused of a sex crime against little girls ends up in prison, where he will be raped by another homosexual prisoner. That's offensive on so many fronts. Most notably, it connects the social constructions "gay" with "pedophilia," when in fact the vast majority of pedophiles are men who seek out little girls. It is also uninformed, as it assumes that men who have sex with men in prison are gay. Most are not. They are just horny and take what they can get.
As for "a better way to describe what Kimo is implying," Kimo could have simply expressed a wish that the person (if guilty) is eventually punished by the state for his crime.
Again, I am sure that Kimo meant no offense, but the comment was insensitive.
I've said my peace and do not intend to comment further on this matter.
