Why does the state chemically castrated a sex offender. Even those he can still rape but not ejaculate?

rape isn't about sex, it's about power, control, and the thrill of victimization. sex offenders cannot be rehabilitated. and certainly not by the use of chemical castration w/o also combining medications that extinguish the sexual urges...there are many ways to rape and sexually offend other than using a penis.

Anyone who sentences a sexual offender to anything but a very long(preferably life) sentence needs to be off the bench. But giving someone who molested a child probation ? Disgusting.\n\nAnd he has a few DUI's to boot.

i generally condone castration for all convicted child molesters for 1 it would stop them from molesting anymore children for 2 it would stop them from ever breeding. better yet i think that after the castration there parts should be sewn on to there foreheads, so everyone will know these dickheads for what they are.

No.  Paedophiles admit themselves that they will reoffend.  They can't help themselves.  It's an overwhelming desire within them that drives them to such monstrosities.  However, it is possible that they are repentant, and that prison is extremely unmerciful for Paedophiles.  As such, they should be released from prison after their sentence is complete, and into full -time residential Psychiatric care, like a sealed community, into which no innocent children must ever venture.  It will remain a prison because it must be secure, but it will contain only child-molesters.  Psychiatric help should be available to these individuals as it may be that they have traumatic pasts themselves, but they should never, ever be released into society - ours or another.\n\nIt is true that this will rely on the tax-payer's money, but who would rather they roamed the streets amongst our children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews than we paid a few extra quid to keep them locked away?\n\nP.S. Castration is a good idea in theory, but they still have hands and mouths... (sorry to be distasteful, but it's an ugly truth...)

it may seem lax to you (and indeed it is so) but the reason behind it is most likely that the system is so overloaded that he just fell through the cracks.  i come across defendants everyday that the record keeping division of the prison system claims the defendants have paroled while the institutional division (and the parole division) claim the def is still in prison......and they actually are still in prison.

I'm with ya.  Forcing them out of certain areas DOES NOT stop the problem!  It creates a bigger problem for the offender, which puts them under stress, which makes them more likely to re-offend.  Also, proximity to a school or playground or whatever will not stop someone who truly wants to commit an offense.  Instead of creating these ridiculous laws...how about we try to help the person not to re-offend?  Contrary to popular belief, sex offenders can be treated and can change.  Not all of them, of course, but many of them.  Yes, what they did is horrific, and they deserve to be punished for the offense.  But making their lives miserable (and the lives of their families) doesn't do anything but create a bigger problem.

I assume you're referring to oral penetratiion. This is classed as rape. The victim probably didn't fight back for the same reasons victims in other rape cases dont fight back - fear, panic, confusion. The standard of proof of intent in rape cases is not just that the man must know the victim does not consent, but also if he is reckless as to consnet  - that is he eitehr doesn't care if sbe consents or not or fails to check if she consnts. So if he forced her to do something, and she didn't want to do it, and he didn't check this .... thats rape.

The penalties for those who prey on children is disgustingly mild. I agree with you 100% that a few years in jail is simply not enough. Those who are victimized face a lifetime of pain as a result of what has happened to them.\n\nBut, castration will not solve the problem. Sexual abuse is about controlling and humiliating the victim and surprisingly has very little to do with sex. \n\nThose who have the potential to commit these crimes will find another way to abuse their victims. Penetration is not the only way to sexually abuse a child. You would be horrified by how creative these monsters can be. And castration will not take away the desire.\n\nThe good news is that some states have started to enact laws to make the punishment of sex offenders more severe. New York state just passed a law that would make the penalty for at least one offense, life in prison (I believe it's 1st degree rape of a child, but I can't be sure). The expansion of the sex offender registry and the establishment of child advocacy centers is also crucial to the fight against these vile individuals.\n\nWe can all do our part by writing to our state politicians to expand resources available to child victims and to make the laws tougher on pedophiles.

I think it is a question that will never be answered, and it is very possible. If he was seen as a man, then why would he have not been treated as a man. Why would rape not be apart of it, when you consider the other documented travisy he went through. I just dont think people would want to think that occurred but it is very possible, and is a very good question that deserves much study. I wish you well

eunuchs are incapable of sexual function as they are generally castrated either physically or chemically.

I don't know I can only say I hope its a LONG one. Retards that produce (and its prob meth) should go down as examples and be punished to the fullest. These drugs promote filth and crime, child molestation, and prostitution along with many other negative things. One does not produce drugs without knowing the awful effects, they just don't care. In jail you go my friend.....see ya butt head! (whoever it is)

What does that matter? They are being tried & convicted some to life in prison, some to death. Military prison is not like state prison either.

Of course not, probably a lot of people are misinformed and are not aware of the consequences.  It could also be that they are not taking him seriously, but how many times has this happened with serial killers or psychopaths,  it's only until its too late that they decide to do something about it. I am appalled!

I understand your resentment, I mean the operation  unnecessarily entices people, who would otherwise not commit the crime.  HOWEVER, those guys showed up there are not being prosecuted based on thoughts but a definite commission of a crime. Here an attempted sexual abuse of a minor for sure (by most common definition, he or she must make substantial steps to effect a crime, sexual abuse of minor). \n\nInterestingly, some jurisdictions do offer a common law defense of entrapment. That is --- a procedural defense by which a defendant may argue that they should not be held criminally liable for actions which broke the law, because they were induced (or entrapped) by the police to commit said acts.\n\nHowever, for the defense to prevail he must show he was forced into committing a crime otherwise he would not. And that does not appear to be the case in the dateline stories.  Some guys even stripped before walking into the meeting house !0!

I don't think there is a good answer to this. But, we know from forensic and psychological research that serial sex offenders sometimes escalate to becoming serial killers. This seems particularly true for sex offenders who have a history of sexually violent acts or become aroused by violence. There is a theory that these offenders do not initially intend to kill their victims but as their violent behaviors escalate, they accidently kill a victim. The rush of this unexpected outcome reinforces a deranged desire to repeat this same behavior. It becomes a fetish of sorts. Very disturbing stuff.

For the same reason they can't be castrated - you'd get folk moaning about breaching their human rights, civil liberties etc, though if you ask me, you commit a sexual offence, you give up your right to be treated like a human being

Your question is kinda incomplete.\nNot ALL cons rape children.\nWhen someone is in prison for crimes other then child molestation..they usually have children of their own at home and the thought of someone like the man in the next bunk could be out there hurting their own children is what bothers them the most.\nAlso...children are innocent. Even the most harden criminal would protect a child.\nLook on the bright side...the state can only put them in prison for so long but the abuse that they receive in prison is more than the state is allowed to do to them!( A little poetic justice in the form of prison justice).\nHere in Florida,(I don't know if other states have simular laws), but we have the JIMMY RICE LAW which in part means that if the person is deemed the worst kind of pedophile than they are concidered non-curable and therefore are a threat to others. When they are released from prison they never "see the light of day" as they are sent directly into a mental institution. Here they will remain idefinatly..as they will never be deemed safe to return to the public because they are not cured and will therefore re-offend.\nWe REALLY like this law!!
