Sounds like he should be locked up permanently then.
Tbh, i'm not a fan of the sex offender lists...because the idea behind them is that we think they're still enough of a danger to society that we bother with tracking them to help ensure they don't cause trouble. Well, if that's the case just keep them locked up.
Also, I think if you did your time in prison then when you're out your punishment should be considered finished. The list is just a way of continuing said punishment after you supposedly suffered through it. This also gets back to my first point of why release them if we think they're still a danger.
Instead of bothering with a sex offender list just keep them locked up. Though you could probably make an argument for the death penalty as well for various reasons under the whole threat to society thing. This post is written at the broadest level of analysis and does not contemplate the many possible scenarios that occur to complicate things.
Oh, but keeping him in a cage for life would be so cruel.
Euthanasia is always an option. Often considered quite the humane option, too, from what I hear. Humane for one species is humane for another.
It used to be humane to kill a criminal as soon as possible so that they may be sent to God for judgement, rather than continue to sin on Earth and suffer greater judgement when they eventually died.
No. The sex offender list makes sense, since it's less of a punishment and more of a public warning. Why keep people locked up when all you need to do is warn people about them?
