snip:
Crimes of first-degree rape, first-degree sodomy, and first-degree sexual assault of victims under the age of 12 would automatically become elevated from Class A felonies to capital crimes eligible for the death penalty (or life without parole).

The law takes effect on October 1, 2026.

SCOTUS would need to overturn Kennedy v Louisiana.

I'm all for this. Pedos don't care about destroying a child's innocence and life. And children who are abused often become abusers themselves.

Well, we got constitutional carry and this. I can't think of another Governor who did so much. Now, if she'd just abolish speed limits on the interstate beyond city limits....

You don’t have this yet, it’s facially unconstitutional unless or until SCOTUS changes its jurisprudence on capital punishment.

No. Just pointing out that the law likely isn’t enforceable because of where SCOTUs stands on the death penalty.

I fully support the objective but physical evidence will need to be conclusive.
