HARSH, BUT JUST :

Vietnamese teacher executed for child rape (The Associated Press, June 7, 2002)

A teacher convicted of raping six elementary school students has been executed by firing squad, a court official in Vietnam's central highlands said Friday.

Nguyen Van Phu, 37, was sentenced to death in 1999 for raping six of his students, aged 8 and 9, over five days in 1997. He sexually molested another six students, the official said on condition of anonymity.

If nothing else it would solve the problem of repeat offenders. Posted by Orrin Judd at June 9, 2002 10:56 PM
