I totally agree. I've often gone back and forth on the issue with capital punishment, however I do think that all sex offenders (especially with those that hurt children) need to fry. My best friend's brother was abused by their 55 year old female babysitter when he was 6. I wont describe how, but it came out years later when he was going through puberty. Unfortunately this shitbag is still on the streets despite their efforts to get her locked up. To try and make him feel safe they changed and unlisted their phone numbers, changed locks on all cars and their house, changed their burglar alarm code, and then ultimately ended up moving into a new house because their son was so terrified of the basement. This child is 23 today and still has major psychological problems as a result of the abuse.
In my opinion sex offenders (and other forms of child abusers) give up their rights when they hurt children. There is no worse criminal. As a society we must not let these perps get off lightly. Judges need to be held accountable for dispicable sentences such as this.
I'm having a party if Jessica's Law becomes a federal law (25 years to life i think it is for first offense --someone correct me if I'm wrong).
