In my opinion...

Killing the offender will neither A: prevent abuse from occuring B: help the victims or C: Make our society a better place to live

So other than satisfying some peoples bloodlust I don't see the point...especially if an innocent person or two goes to death row.

And while rape (and other forms of abuse) are vile and despicable, and arguably moreso when the victim is a child (or otherwise helpless)...I just can't consider the crime comparable to slaughtering another person...nor do I think that offenders should be slaughtered themselves

A life sentence with no chance of parole...period is what I want

And maybe someday we can figure out a way to figure out who is susceptible to these crimes and intervene/help before ANY victims are created
