John Neely Kennedy on Crime

Democratic Senate Challenger (LA)


Support death penalty for convicted child rapists

Kennedy released the following statement on today's Supreme Court ruling rejecting the death penalty for convicted child rapists: Today's decision by the US Supreme Court is morally reprehensible. Speaking for the liberal majority, Justice Anthony Kennedy said, 'The death penalty is not a proportional punishment for the rape of a child.' That is outrageous. This is a wrong-headed, left-wing, activist decision that favors the perpetrators of a crime over its victims.
