Eh...considering that it takes nothing more than the word of the supposed victim to get an innocent man convicted of these charges, I’m going to say this is a baaaad idea.
I will go for rule of law over anarchy, and work to root out corruption over living in the law of the jungle.
Sorry, I disagree. It takes a mere word to begin the investigation. Often times the investigation comes to a standstill because of lack of evidence such as DNA or damage to the victim because of the time that transpires between the time of the crime and the reporting of it.
Very few are convicted and placed in prison for child rape if there is a lack of physical evidence or witnesses.
I hear this allot. Well what about the 19 year old who has sex with a 17 year old and is labeled a child sex offender for life.
It takes all the energy a child has to step up and report these crimes. Generally when they do, other victims step out of the woodwork to corroborate the story of another.
If there is solid evidence that a child rape has occurred and the person is convicted based on this evidence, my opinion is the ultimate penalty should be on the table.
Pedophiles often times have many victims under their belt before being nabbed and statistically will not stop assaulting children even after a long prison term.
