Jessica’s Law Plus
I will introduce legislation changing Jessica’s Law to allow for the death penalty. Currently, Jessica’s law involves sexual crimes against children. A first conviction will have a minimum sentence of 25 years without parole. A second conviction will get life. My bill will allow the prosecution the death penalty option in second convictions. By the way, the last time SC executed a non murderer was in 1972. The condemned man was convicted of rape.

Senator,
Thank you for pushing this bill.
However, i feel that i must mention this as i always do in these types of forums:
We NEED to make a more sure system on figuring out who is a sex offender, i have known two people blatantly wrongly accused of sexual assault crimes. Through many many months of emotional hassle to them and tangetially onto me, i must ask that there be a better system for accusing people, not only for sexual assault crimes but for all crimes.
But, by all means! everyone deserves a second chance (i guess) and if you fail that time, I’m all for the death penalty in this situation.
Kudos,
Douglas

If Someone sexually abuses my child they will get the death penalty.
I will be the judge, jury, and executioner. So help me God.
