I'm all for flamethrowing open shut case pedophiles.

At the same time, I remember my 9th grade math teacher, who was fired immediately after his 13 year old stepdaughter said he touched her. Then later said she made it up for attention. That guy doesn't deserve to die. And cases like that are why the death penalty is hard to justly enforce. Once you make that decision there's no coming back.
