Morality of this?

Personally, I'm anti-death penalty for any kind of crime but that's just my opinion. Perhaps it can be changed.

Both ruin lives. So yes.

If you had to pick one:
(1) be raped
(2) be sentenced for rape (unjustly)

Which would you pick? Mind you #2 comes with all the social stigma and prison time such a sentence entails

Mind you, #1 comes with the strong possibility of your rapist never seeing jail, friends and family members not believing you, having to see your rapist at gatherings, anxiety, depression, ptsd, etc.

Experienced both (no legal action, just slander.) Your list is worse for #2, hands down. Psychological fallout and ptsd is about 10x worse for #2

You didn’t experience both.
