There are many arguments which support this law and some arguments which oppose such a law. Well proponents of the argument that child rapists should be sentenced to the death penalty say that children who have been raped usually live a life of torment, the become victims of the torment themselves. These kids often turn to drugs and alcohol to help them get through their lives effectively. This condition can also worsen for them if they have to face or see their tormentor on a regular basis. Hence by making the death sentence as the price you pay for raping children, a vivid message is sent to the perpetrators. Moreover the offenders or rapists very rarely change their abusing habits and research shows that around 98 percent of them reoffend; hence the death sentence makes sense.
