I read a study (university of Ottawa) that stated that the rates of recidivism for pedophiles out side of the family is 14% for sexual, 8% for violent sexual, 28% in general. within 5 years of the first offense. Over 12 years after the first offense it increases dramatically to 15% 20% and 41% for the above mentioned categories. at 20 years it goes to 23% 35% and 46%.
You might effect a short term fix but the chances of a life long solution are low.
I firmly believe that if you commit a sexual assault against a child you never should get out. This is the type of crime where public safety of the perspective victim group has to take priority.
Why take the chance
Ian Watkins should never see the light of day, they should bury his a$$ under the prison when he dies.
