dealing with these criminals. Whether it is
retaliatory or treatment based, it is generally

which the death penalty is carried out, as well as
inconstancies in sentencing doesn? t make it a

Child Sexual Abuse Sexual Gratification

Perhaps no single act causes such strong emotions
as the act of child sexual abuse. Child molesters
can not even find refuge in prisons where rapists
and murderers are commonplace. These offenders are
shunned in every aspect of our society, yet there

Sexual abuse of children is not new, and has not
always been socially taboo. The ancient Greeks and
Romans used children for sexual gratification
(Langevin, 1983). In Greece, it was commonplace
