6. Exactly.
If the number of child sexual assault cases just here in Alaska that I transcribe is any indication, there must be thousands and thousands of these offenders nationwide, probably way more than anyone wants to know about -- maybe even millions. Each one is horrific in its own right, but if we started executing these people we would soon run out of lethal injection drugs. There is no way to ensure that a death penalty for child sexual assault would be administered equally and fairly (if the death penalty can EVER be fair, which I doubt). It's just too slippery a slope.
