That can't possibly be what you're saying.
It's a particularly heinous crime with or WITHOUT murder added into the equation.
Just so some sicko can "get his rocks off." (it IS almost exclusively males that are guilty of the worst of these)

I am not saying that the punishment for child molestation should be light; but I am saying that having the punishment lighter than murder may well prevent those who would not normally (if that word can be applied to these creeps) murder their victims from doing so in an effort to avoid getting caught.
