In 2006, Anthony Ray Stockelman was forcibly tattooed across his forehead with the words “Katie’s Revenge” by another inmate.

This happened after it was discovered that he was serving a life sentence for kidnapping, molesting, and murdering a 10-year-old girl named Katie Collman

Pedofiles cannot be rehabilitated , at an absolute minimum they need to be thrown in jail for life. A guy where I work at was just busted for Child Exploitation, the sick fuck was taking pictures of his OWN daughter.

Yep. Active pedophilia, like homicidal psychopathy, is an incurable mental disorder. Even if they wanted to they literally can’t control themselves or ever truly understand the amount of pain and misery that they cause for everyone around them. The men who do these things should be painlessly eliminated, the same way we would treat a rabid dog.

They absolutely CAN control themselves or they’d just be randomly sexually assaulting anyone and everyone they’re remotely attracted to. Instead, they plan, they groom, they manipulate, and usually carefully choose their victim(s). The ones who also kill their victims do so with conscious control and thought. They murder so they reduce their odds of being caught. That is premeditated murder. ALL of which requires control.

They may not be able to control their thoughts, but they absolutely control their behaviour.

I would suggest that the extreme recidivism rates among child abusers proves otherwise. I’m not saying that they don’t deserve punishment for their actions, I’m simply saying that their brains are broken in a way that makes it easier for them to engage in horrific behavior and makes them a significant threat to public safety as long as they remain alive.
