If Homelander Was Charged for All His Crimes, How Many Centuries He'd Have to Spend in Jail?
Homelander committed more than 15 different types of crimes. That may be the only type of diversity he champions…
If you've watched The Boys, you most likely love to hate Homelander, the all-American super-guy who’s not exactly the boy scout he pretends to be. Ever wondered what would happen if Homelander was held accountable for all the things he’s done?
A YouTuber named MOUSAIT went down this rabbit hole and calculated all the crimes Homelander has committed. You might want to sit down for this one because the list is long.
From mutilations to first-degree murder, Homelander has done it all. He's committed 18 different types of crimes, and it’s obviously not jaywalking or stealing a candy bar from a grocery store.
We're talking serious offenses here, like: 25 counts of first-degree murder, 123 negligent homicides, 15 counts of second-degree murder...and much, much more.
Someone as powerful as Homelander is above the law, but what if he wasn't? The YouTuber crunched the numbers and came up with a staggering verdict: If Homelander were to be charged, he would face 37 life sentences and an additional 893 and a half years in prison.
For one, this analysis helps us realize just how dark and twisted the character of Homelander is. It's a commentary on the abuse of power, something that's so relevant in today's world. It's a grim reminder that sometimes those in power, be it in the fictional world or the real one, can misuse it to terrifying extents.
There is a fan theory suggesting that Homelander might somehow lose his powers in season 4, and will be thrown in prison. It’s an intriguing theory, but even if it comes true, Homelander probably won't face the consequences for all the terrible crimes he's committed. Most of his crimes aren't out in the open or easy to prove.
Unfortunately, we don't have a clue about when we'll get to know if Homelander ends up behind bars in season 4. The release date is up in the air right now because of the ongoing strikes. Fans are hoping for a 2024 release.
