Reducing the risk is just not good enough imo I value children's lives more than taking a gamble on a child rapists ability for rehabilitation

Agree RE rape.

Like I originally said I don't excuse the behaviour under ANY circumstances, but I view it as an illness.

Ask Ollie what he feels about having sex with trans people, since it’s a disorder. Can they consent to sex, in his eyes?

If its seen as a medical condition, it may explain the light sentences for people viewing CP on the net.

For example...here is a man charged with 50 child sex offences, walking out of court

There was s guy on the news yesterday who had been caught with what was described as some of the worst examples of child pornographic photos - 11,000 of them !!!!

He escaped prison and was given a suspended sentence due to a ‘good character reference’ !!!!!

Would that be a criminal psychologist writing up the reference?

Sorted.

I get what you're saying
What gets removed from the female predators/ abusers though ? . Especially all those female teachers we keep hearing about... grooming young pupils.

Anyway I have to strongly disagree with OP , dementia
will never be anywhere close to paedophilia.

A paedophile is usually a perverted twisted sicko who chooses to harm children.

Someone suffering from dementia ,has no control over
losing their memory and it changes their entire personality. They become scared and lonely.

I know there can be trauma related and mental health issues involved, causing someone to harm others. There's just no comparison ... especially when innocent children are getting preyed upon.
