My wife and I had 2 married men convicted of Statachatory rape of our daughter. At that time she was only 13 and had sex with 2 married men, One age 31 and the other age 22. We not only ended their marriages. But also now have them on the sex offenders list for the rest of their lives. Me What I wanted to do is cut it off them an make them eat their own junk. And No I'm not at all sorry for wanting this. the 31 year old gave our daughter a desease that cost me money to cure. Is that fair????????????? I know she had something to do with it, but those men knew her age. Sick Bastards. I have to say something about this. My wife and I had 2 married men convicted of Statachatory rape of our daughter.

Not that I really care what the families of criminals feel like. Like I said earlier, I don't support the death penalty. I just don't understand why if people are going to receive the death penalty for the crimes they commit, we include a guy that brutality rapes his 8-year old step-daughter.

THAT'S punishment. Killing him just puts an end to all his problems while punishing his loved ones in his stead. If you want to punish someone, put him in prison for the rest of his life.

I only read parts of the opinions, and have a passing understanding of the precedent set here, but in theory couldn't we execute a 18 year old for having sex with a 16 year old if they upheld the decision. Granted, I hardly believe this would happen, but I think all in all they made the right decision. I hate envoking it, but isn’t there a chance of a slippery slope here?

I'm not sure that I can think of anything worse than a child rapist- I'd prefer not to think about it, really.
