If a convicted murderer/rapist/molester serving a lengthy sentence has expressed a desire to end his life......

should the state or govt honor his wishes and allow him to end his own life ?? What are your thoughts ??

I'd argue there are fates worse than death.
Anyway, from friends I know who have been in jail or prison, child molesters don't last long, they usually get shanked. They're seen as the lowest of the low. I'd argue it's up to them if they want to take their lives, but is it really penitence?

As to execution or torture, I'm against that.
Even for child molesters. Not because they don't deserve it, they do, but because I don't think the state should have power over life and death.
