Introduce the death penalty for certain child sex offences
Introduce legislation to reinstate capital punishment and make the death penalty the mandatory sentence for the most serious child sexual offences, with no lesser sentencing options.
I believe the most serious crimes against children are so grave that only the death penalty is an appropriate punishment. I want the law changed to ensure the strongest possible justice and protection for children.
