Either death penalty or mandatory life sentence without parole. Not only is sexual abuse a heinous crime that causes lifelong scars for the victim, but sexual offenders are not capable of rehabilitation. They will inevitably strike again given the chance.

(652 posts)As I understand it, sex offenders have one of the very highest rates of repeat offenses. They often have a long list of victims, and there is significant evidence that therapy or medication is completely ineffective at successfully treating sex offenders. They can't be rehabilitated, and they are an immense danger to society. They must be put away for good upon first offense.
