OKLAHOMA GOVERNOR APPROVES EXECUTING CHILD MOLESTERS


Oklahoma governor approves of the DEATH PENALTY for child molesters!


OKLAHOMA GOVERNOR APPROVES EXECUTING CHILD MOLESTERS
June 9, 2006

By TIM TALLEY, Associated Press Writer

OKLAHOMA CITY - Oklahoma on Friday became the fifth state to allow the death penalty for repeat child molesters, although legal scholars questioned the constitutionality of the new state law.

Oklahoma Gov. Brad Henry didn‘t discuss the measure Friday as he signed it into law.

Defense attorneys and death penalty experts said the measure defies recent U.S. Supreme Court U.S. Supreme Court decisions that have scaled back the death penalty‘s application.

No one convicted of a sex offense has been executed since the U.S. Supreme Court reinstated capital punishment 30 years ago, though one inmate is on death row in Louisiana following his 2003 conviction for raping an 8-year-old girl.

I am not for the death penalty. In the case of child molesters who do not ever recover from their "sickness" they need to be kept in prison forever. The problem is making sure they are the right person, which is always the problem.
