[liberty or death]

No excuse but I’d bet my life savings the same thing happened to Jerry when he was a kid. The punishment for child molestation should be life in prison because they reek havoc on our society.

You might want to bring yourself up to speed on more recent research before making that wager.

Chapter ten of this book:

Should be instructive.

It behooves pedophiles to present themselves as victims too in prisons. The percentage of those claims which are factual turns out to be not so much.

I wouldn't. There are millions of trauma victims who do not re-enact, and there are fetishists who molest without any previous history. I might bet ten bucks though.
