So he isn't set free to rape - and possibly murder - another child.Quote from schlap:
Death is a welcome relief from the plane of suffering.. why would you want to do him that favour?

It's not about venegeance. It's about preventing it from happening again AND weighing the costs to society of keeping them incarcerated.
Instead of spending the 30-40 grand a year it costs annually for each prisoner, how about allocating that money instead toward the psychiatric care and recuperation of the raped child instead?

Not quite sure why the 9yo threshold, RM.....? The rape of a 10, 11, 12, 13, 14yo isn't heinous?
Quote from trendlover:
How does this relate to child rape? It is an honest question. I know you want to make a point with this bear attack, but not sure what your point is.
Grain of salt taken.Quote from Rearden Metal:
Hapa, you know that I'm no expert on these matters, so you can take my recommendation with a grain of salt. I simply wanted to exclude pubescent 'early-developing' children who may have some adult-like physical characteristics, just to make the example as clear-cut as possible. Obviously, when a person of ANY age is raped, the attacker should always be due some serious punishment.
