I think judges and prosecutors are cowards who won’t go so far as to sentence child sex abusers to death, but instead sentence them to imprisonment, then put them in the general population knowing full well that that’s effectively a death sentence anyway.
If the state is going to have child sex abusers killed, then the prosecutors and judges should own it. And if they’re not willing to do that - if they can’t or won’t pass down a death sentence themselves - then they need to sentence them such that they’ll be protected from the other inmates.
I honestly don’t much care which they choose, but they need to choose one. This trick of avoiding responsibility by passing it on to inmates is cheap, dishonorable bullshit.
All the great bits of Great Britain aren’t English, but the Welsh do come out with some pervy bastards. Like, many rural people shag sheep, but the Welsh did it enough to get the name for it.
lmao I’ve never seen someone seriously claim the Welsh are actually more inclined to bestiality than any other people, it’s banter that came from the fact there is just more rural land and especially sheep pastures by percentage in Wales than in England which gave rise to perception and what some may title a ‘slur’
Similarly Australian’s also use ‘sheep shagger’ as a term for New Zealanders, likely because they also have more pastoral sheep grazing land compared to them(by percentage)
Then it’s not even a matter of choosing one - they already chose one.
The rest of my point still holds - everybody involved, from the judge(s) on down to the prison guards - knew full well that putting a child sex abuser in with the other prisoners was effectively a death sentence, so for all intents and purposes, they did sentence him to death. They just relied on someone else to carry out the sentence for them.
So it would appear that the death sentence wasn’t actually abolished - it was just disguised.

FYI Ian Watkins was Welsh and was sentenced in Cardiff in 2013; the death penalty was effectively abolished in the UK in 1965.
