well, one of the Provincial Supreme courts here did something almost unheard of - it more than doubled the sentence handed down for Graham James, the hockey coach who was found guilty of molesting NHL player Theo Fluery, among others. Instead of the 2 year sentence he was given by the judge, he will now serve 5 years, unless the Canadian Supreme court changes it.

I once heard a concept of voluntary Coventry, where people who feel they can not stop themselves from repeating go to safe areas, where kids are not allowed. It would have to be sponsored somehow, but in the long run it would be much more productive and cheaper than prison for these guys. They could even be allowed internet access, with proper net nanny controls. It would have to be voluntary though.
