As the nation is engrossed in debates about criminal justice, let us not forget the most vulnerable among us. We need strong laws and strong law enforcement to make clear to anyone who would even think about committing acts of great violence against a child that they will be caught and they will be justly punished. For crimes of the magnitude in these cases, there is only one just punishment in our law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Supreme Court today turned down the federal execution protocol case, apparently on a 7-2 vote.
