Equally traumatic to being raped by your step-dad who then drugs you and makes you testify against him in court?
Gonna need an example of that.
Edit: I don't want an example.
My answer is this: If I read through a case and thought to myself "that little girl would've been better off being raped" then yes, I would personally support the death penalty - with the caveat that there is not going to be a law already on the books (as there was with child rape) that permits execution.
