Castration would discourage these attackers .
Captain obvious- The perps would just find another violent method to inflict upon their victims. Rape is an act of violence. Isn’t that obvious?
I’m sure it wasn’t the first time this guy did this & it won’t be the last .
These attackers should be punished not be given probation or sent to rehabilitation
Disgusting! Hope they catch him!
