    Do you mean the 18 year old that got busted for sex with his 17 year old GF? Or the priest that buggers 6 year olds? Surely, you don't suggest the same punishment for both?

    They should be locked up in jail

    They have a very high recidivism rate. So long-term incarceration is the best approach, assuming they've been convicted.

    But I draw the line when the age is really close. For example, a 19 year old having sex with a 17 year old may be illegal, but not as bad as an adult preying on ten year olds.
