What should happen to child abusers?

So let's say a man raped a young teenage boy several times, abused him. ( you know like beat him up) burned him, broke his leg and arm, pushed him down the stairs, choked him, yanked the hair out of his head, punched him in his penis, and after that he'd go out to beat and abuse other kids. One of his victims killed themselves because of him. what should happen to him?

  • The thing a lot of people don't tend to realise it that the people who do this kind of stuff have majority of the time been victims of the same thing or something similar themselves, they are often mentally disturbed, and sure you may think they are evil but most of them have some kind of problem in their heads because of what happened to them from when they were kids, or other stuff.
    By no means do I remotely accept what they have done but seeing them as evil human beings who should rot in hell and go through the same torture they did on the kid is not something I'd think, only IF they went through something similar/bad when they were young as well, or if they are mentally disturbed. And if they were to go through the same torture, the people carrying out the torture on him wouldn't be any different than the perpetrator.

    Sometimes prison tends to make some disturbed people even more disturbed than they already were, or turn "undisturbed" people crazy. If they are ever going to be let back into society they will need some kind of mental help to even make it safe for the civilians once they come out.

    I don't believe in death penalty, so if they are impossible people to change then life in prison it is. If they have potential to change then they shouldn't be in a prison but a mental hospital of some sort.

  • Murder, rape, and child abuse should all result in a life sentence in prison. The death penalty is wrong.

  • They should go to prison and never get out. ESPECIALLY the priests, and I'm a Catholic

  • Well he wasn't the direct cause of death but a contributing factor. He should get the same abuse he did to the child. But lets switch roles and have a woman be the abuser, I'm tired of seeing women go unpunished or get light punishments for major crimes. Just because men commit more crimes doesn't mean that they should get hit harder. AND GIRLS before you lose it! I've played on boys sports teams with girls on them. Some were even high scoring players. But opponents would sometimes pick on them just because they were smaller and i would stick up for them and give the guy a piece of my mind. Beisdes i don't care if the abuser or convict is Male, Female, White, Black, Asian, Hispanic etc. a criminal is a criminal and they should go where every criminal goes, Prison!

  • drive him out to the middle of nowhere, make him dig his own grave, kneel him down and kill him in it

  • Personally, I would sentence him to life in jail.

  • Why are you asking this kind of question?

  • I mainly said the death penalty because I don't think he should spend his life being fed and housed by tax payers, while no doubt enjoying sex with younger guys in prison.

  • I think pedophiles should be executed because there's no cure for pedophilia so they're a danger to children even if they serve a long time in prison before they're released

  • i´d say life sentence. in our country "one time" life sentence means you can come free after like 30 years, if you meet certain criteria

  • I this k we need to start killing these people so people can learn that crime is serious offense. But this goes to all murder

    • And what if an innocent person is accidentally found guilty? There are TONS of stories of people being wrongly accused, wrongly found guilty, and then given the death penalty, and nobody realizes that they were innocent until it's too late. You can release a person from prison, but you can't bring back the dead.

    • @samhradh_leannan give 5 year gap to investigate after five year and we can't prove your not innocent ducks to be them.

    • Sucks to be them? Can you even imagine what it feels like to be sentenced to death for a crime you didn't commit? A life sentence is severe enough. There's no reason why that shouldn't be the limit.

  • I voted "other". Into the lab for experiments. Why should we use animals for experiments when we have child abusers?

    • A joke comes to mind Recently, scientists have started replacing lab rats for lawyers, for three reasons:1) Lawyers have less rights than actual rats. 2) The scientists grow less attached to lawyers. 3) There are certain things rats would never do. However, they soon after switched back to rats, as rats are closer to human beings. Just replace lawyer with child abusers

  • Life in prison at hard labor. Solitary confinement and no outside visitors.

  • Crucifixion, Roman style

    Flog him, then nail the man to a fucking cross.

  • He should be forced to hump a steel-bladed fan from the front to the beat of a Tupac song, one with a lot of kicks.

  • Death penalty. People like him don't change.

  • teenage boys can't get RAPED

  • "Life in prison".

    The only thing i've read about that has good success preventing child abusers from repeating is physical castration. Kill their sex drive and many of them can be safe.

    My emotions want the death penalty for people like this, but for our current society , the death penalty isn't worth using.

    • Well the problems are that with testosterone gels and patches their sex drive can be easily restored

    • @Waffles731 Right, which is why physical castration has had better long-run success than chemical.

    • No, those work to restore it in cases of physical castration as well

  • He should be removed from society like all sociopaths and abusers, but i really think our society needs to move toward teaching children how to grow into healthy adults and rehabilitating those that slip through the cracks instead of making them more cold blooded in prison.

  • I'm going to say life in prison because it's cheaper to keep them in prison than to kill them.

  • Life in prison so they can be totured in prison for the rest of their pathetic lives. If child abusers will get that much of a sentence. Then my bullies, who make fun of me for being 6'9, should get life in prison too. they are my child abusers in high school.
