After a review of the “history of the death penalty for this and other nonhomicide crimes, current state statutes and new enactments, and the number of executions since 1964, we conclude there is a national consensus against capital punishment for the crime of child rape,” Anthony Kennedy wrote.

I could be wrong here, but I am pretty sure that if we were to ask the people of the nation, there would be a very strong consensus FOR capital punishment for child rapists. I would expect that most people would rather see someone killed for this, then for murder.
