In this guys case ... in a nutshell. He was a social degenerate. Yes. It's his fault for being what he is. Sure his family was clinical and cold but he was unable to develop the intelligence to see past that. I grew up cold and disconnected but I dont seek high's from doing anything this perverse ....

Perhaps then it is lost on you that many repeat violent/sexual offenders are highly intelligent. More intelligent than average, as a matter of fact. 'Perversity' has nothing to do with intelligence and everything to do with genetics and environment. Nature and nurture.
As for castration, I'm not staunchly against it for the worst offenders, but I don't think our justice system is equipped to implement it fairly, justly or effectively. There would have to be a major overhaul in the way we look at sex crimes and how perpetrators are classified. I don't see that happening in a society so pressured by hyperbole when it comes to sex crimes and the public's ready exchange of vengeance for justice.
