Agreeing with you that child abuse (including sexual, verbal, and physical) is absolutely wrong and immoral, I must disagree with you about the enforcement of these things.
Your argument could extend to rapists, burglars, and even as extreme as a person at fault in a car accident.
Bad things happen to people, and yes, perhaps the punishment should be a little more stricter (like 10 to 20 years), but not life or death.
Also, what if it was you that was falsely accused? I'm sure you'd be singing a different tune. Their are cases where to avoid punishment from parents about being out late, a child (maybe a 12-15 year old girl) will falsely accused someone of abusing them. Scoff if you want, it's real and it happens.
Don't forget this is a felony crime, something that also follows them for the rest of their life.
Our justice system is not infallible, mistakes happen, evidence construed wrongly, and wrongly accused persons convicted. If the courts were impartial (like their supposed to be), and the facts laid out perfectly , I would be in support of harsher punishments, but as things are now, I don't think we're at a point were we can do so.

I think that they should be punished, yes. I think that if they've taken ones life, then, yes, they should have their's taken.
Life in prison... no. If they only molested the child without killing it, I don't think they should spend the rest of their years behind bars. Yes, I do think they should go to jail for many years and other public services, but I don't think they should be punished for the rest of their mortal life for one mistake.
A repeat offender, yes, I'd believe they should go to jail maybe until death. A once offender... sorry, but no.
Life is too precious to not give any one second chances. Who knows where we will be in the after life, if there even is one.
Oh, but after reading the responses of others... castration sounds like a good option.

do not blame it on everyone in spite of the undeniable fact that the criminal. And that suggested, each body is chance free until eventually shown accountable in a courtroom of regulation. The courtroom equipment is determined up as a criminal equipment no longer an ethical equipment. both way, if the man is accountable, some one will punish him. regrettably, stuff like this happens standard in the international. What are you able to do? You already paid interest and are wondering about it. practice little ones at an early age is step one.( sturdy contact/undesirable contact) that's a ill international each each now and then.

He** NO!
As a survivor, that is the most despicable thing- to know that the person that did that to you- stole your innocence, is out living a regular everyday life, and could be hurting other children. It makes me sick. My father spent less than a year in jail, and is out right now- EVEN after absconding and violating a 10 year probation!
On CNN a little while ago I saw that tonight at 10pm EST "Sins of the Father" will be on, and it looks heartbreaking. (priest who victimized boys/ teens)
Apparently the priest got a suspended sentence and only has to be monitored for the remainder of his probation/ parole.

Screw life without parole. It's a scientifically accepted fact that child molesters can't be "fixed." Put them to death. It's the only way to make them stop.

Child molesters should be put down like the mad dogs they are. No Second Chances EVER. Just a bullet behind the ear.

It's not up to the justice system, or the courts.
It's up to the state legislators who are writing the laws. That's who determines what the minimum and maximum punishments can be. The judge just sets the sentence within those statutory limits.
If you want stricter punishments, get the lawmakers to change the laws.

Death is the easy way out.
I prefer life without a chance of parole.
The other prisoners will find out the crime and most have kids that they love....paybacks are a pain (guards turn away on this)
EDIT:
Only if this person is PROVEN to be the perp.

Why should they??? By molesting the child and murdering him/her they committed two crimes, one of which should be a life in prison. The child has lost one of their most precious gift, virginity, that they should have the choice of whome to give it two. The person ruined the child's life physically and emotionally.
