I agree that the base attraction can’t be cured but I think there is potential for SOME to reform their lives and behaviour, with support - not everyone though.
But there does need to be an appropriate level of punitive detention first, 20 months is jackshit especially as it’s so short the perp is unlikely get access to treatment courses or any other meaningful support to prevent reoffending after release. This is just irresponsible to the public and even to this person
20 months in prison for a Rock Spider can be a life sentence.
They do get targeted by other prisoners for abuse.
If you are a seasoned murderer who has multiple life sentences, regretting your life choices, and you meet someone who has abused children, what have you got to loose? You are able to do something (that you interpret as being) good for the community and hopefully save some little kiddies and make the world a better place.
I am not defending either party here, but for some offenders, 20 months may be too much, or not enough. The Judiciary need to make this decision, depending on the offender.
