But I'm trying to find out what the limits of *your* "conventional" train of thought are.

If you think whipping them will be a deterrant, but it fails to deter them, how much further would you go?

how do you keep them from going near children after all we let them out pretty quicly almost instantly ?
The answer is, of course, 1) we don't let them out until they have served their sentence 2) we *don't* let someone out until they *are* rehabilitated and 3) we monitor them to ensure they haven't just faked it and 4) the terms of their release are similar to the "licence" scheme for other prisoners who have received "life sentences" ie if they break the terms of the licence they can be locked up again.

This isn't rocket science.

i dont know how the legal system works over there, but in the US they dont take 10 years in some cases a fast track system to do it within a few years will save the system money long term
And then in more than a few cases it turns out that the defendant was actually *innocent*, but that doesn't really help them: http://www.fdp.dk/uk/new-evi.htm
