The other day Dave posted a thread about the Supreme Court's ruling on guns and also on the death sentence on rape. I do agree with you that it should be treated as severly as murder BUT what if Steven Truscott had been hanged in 1959? What if 49 years later we discovered he wasn't guilty? The problem with the death penalty is that it's final and there's no reversing it. I also realize that Steven was more or less tried on the death of Lynn Harper and not the rape. I am also using him as an example and am not saying that you or others think he is guilty or should have been hanged.You hang someone that may not be guilty of the accused crime but instead innocent. You can't go back and compensate them for it. It has happened before and will happen again. If they ( the justice system ) would have any brains they would just make a lifetime sentence that would actually last a lifetime and not 25 years. A life sentence is somewhat reversible and if the accused is later found innocent he can be released and compensated. i understand that you know girls that have been raped and have seen first hand what disasterous affects it can have on a person I do ask you and others to reconsider this and change your opinion on this. I realize that you (DaveinMn) may feel somewhat singled out but you were the one that started the thread. Also, for those of you that have not heard of the story you should read it.
