Death sentence. Yes or no?

Yes! Although I don't think rapists should get the death penalty (mainly because it's too much "he said she said").

Children are starving, and anyone who gives money to a serial killer over a starving child is evil imo.

Well, if a rapist is caught in the act or there's undeniable evidence that supports her side of it then I would prefer that the culprit is put to death or at the very least given a life sentence in some prison in another country where they treat prisoners like prisoners. 

Beyond setting an example, why punish?
