As a mom, it sickens me to think anyone would hurt a child, but people do. A debate was waged, with even the presidential candidates weighing in as of late, on whether child rapists should be given the death penalty [1] despite the Supreme Court's recent decision that it is unconstitutional. At the center of the controversy was Louisiana man, Patrick Kennedy who was sentenced to death for raping his 8-year-old stepdaughter in 1998; A crime so brutal that the girl had to undergo surgery.
