Should a rapist walk free if he freely admits that he would rape again?
Suppose a convicted rapist is due for release. Let's say that psychologists who have evaluated him are concerned he may commit a crime if he walks free.
Should he be released?
Answers:
It is only their opinion; the opionion o f psychologists are not facts anymore than your opinions are facts. It is a factor in determining if he should be released before serving his complete sentence.
However, if he has served his time, he should be released. People should not be put in prison for crimes they have not committed.
And, if he admits he would rape again, at least he is honest and people can take adequate precautions. That is far better than being deceived by a liar and giving him your trust which puts you at far greater risk then you would be if you knew the truth.
no!
i think they should cut his dick off and let some one f*&^ him up his as see if he likes it
That's a toughy. Of course not, however the justice system is pretty horrible. He SHOULDN'T but he certainly COULD.
Of course not.
no
Of course not!
no he should be put behind bars! n moreover is he is mentally ill he should be treated coz rape is a crime bigger than murder
No, he should be castrated
No because he may be more tempted to commit rape, which wouldnt be a good thing.
I don't think so. If a criminal freely admits that they will commit a crime again, it does not seem logical to let them free.
only a dumb @ss would release him
If he wants to walk free.
Give me three psychologists and I'll give you three different assessments of the same patient.
It's the parole review board that makes the decision, and they do take that quite seriously.
Do you expect anyone to say 'yes' to this question?
Of course not.
Rapists should all be immediately castrated.
Only if he is neutered and given a lobotomy first.
If he openly admitts that he will commit the same crime again then I think he should be locked up. If the person has been evaluated and is sort of on the fence then I think someone should keep a close eye on the person and make sure they at least get the psychological help they need to prevent them from committing the same crime a second time.
No...
Upon hearing that...
They should throw a railroad-track-like switch that causes the prison hallway he's walking down to loop back around, ending right back into the cell he was leaving from...
And take away any future chances of his getting parole again...
If the law says so, he should be. But, I think that he would be watched by the government knowing that he can do it again.
What they would actually do is include him in a database of sexual offenders and if someone gets raped, he will automatically be suspected.
Yes, then he should be taken to the town square and hanged by his penis until it drops off.
He can only be detained for the sentanced time. No matter how sick the man may be he was only sentanced for 'x' amount of time. Should he be released no, does he have to be, yes. Luckily sex offenders don't do well in prison. We can also thank things such as the registry to help with post-release control.
Heck No...He should be locked up and they should throw away the key.
No! The whole point of "being behind bars," is for the inmate to learn his/her lesson. If it is apparant that he/she is going to commit the same crime again, they should not be released; stay long in order to learn their lesson.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...
No way!
While I say no, the courts seem to see it differently. Sexual predators are the lowest form of scum, in my book. If left up to me, they would never see daylight again.
I think if there is a great chance that he will rape again then no he should not be released. There has been several studies done on things like this.
If it was a once in a life time kind of rape that is a different story. Even though I believe that chance is always there. But if that person has raped several times before then yes more likely then not he will rape again.
Their desires to do these things to people will always be there. They can and will grow stronger. Maybe one day it will be more then rape. One day that rapist will be on the news for raping and killing someone. Or perhaps he will just get bored with the raping. The thrill to rape won't be enough to feed them anymore.
They say over time these sick perverts can be changed I don't buy into that. Once they get a taste for it that taste will always be there.
its the social n moral responsibility of the jurors to send him in rehab until the counsellor gives him clean chit
Should he be considered a threat to society, yes. But if he's served his allotted sentence there isn't a choice in the matter. It's not a lot different than any other person who's committed a violent crime. Should the wife beater who battered a woman and says he'll do it again be released? There are many circumstances under which the same question could be asked. Ultimately, the only thing that will make a difference is to change the laws regarding the penalties and terms of release for such offenders.
