Tell that to the victim. The reason they make rape a lesser sentence is because a rapist is more likely to kill the victim if the penalty is the same as for murder. It’s strategic, not necessarily correct.

Who’s doing that? People should be punished for violent crimes when they forever alter a person’s trajectory because of said crimes. There’s no revenge about it.

Well, I guess 50 years for one rape seems too light to me. All violent crimes should get the maximum, if they are conclusively proven to be rightfully convicted, because they leave victims scarred for life.

Edit: ITT people who think rape isn’t a big deal.

No it doesn’t. These victims are altered for the rest of their lives. They may have long term ptsd and intimacy issues. Rapists deserve far worse.
