Rejected petition Bring back capital punishment for child killers and peadophiles!

More details

Please could you bring back capital punishment or the death sentence for anyone found guilty in a court of law for the crimes of child murderers or peadophlia.
It has become increasingly common for some of these crimes bein escaped with a minor sentence or a slap on the wrist.
I would like the government to review there sentences for such crimes as the only justice that seems fitting for such monstrous crimes is death and everyone that i know with or without children would agree with me and will be willing to sign this petition and pass it onto others to sign!
This is the 3rd time i have entered this petition so please could accept that there needs to be a change and accept this!

Many thanks

James Bryce
