A persons guilt would have to be proven beyond all doubt, there has been many cases of miss carriages of justice in the uk and beyond in the past and if the death penalty was still in force, then many innocent people would have been wrongly executed, there is still people in prison now that are innocent of the crimes that they are accused of, but as for anyone guilty of abusing children, then they should be hung up on a grill naked and their private parts prodded with a high voltage cattle prodder, every hour on the hour.
