A Florida prosecutor is putting to the test a new Florida statute that allows child rapists to be executed by utilizing the case of a man accused of sex offenses against minors.
State Attorney William Gladson said on Friday that a grand jury had indicted Joseph Andrew Giampa on six counts of sexual battery upon a person under the age of twelve and three counts of promoting a sexual performance by a child, according to a statement on the office’s website.
“Given the severity of the crime and its impact on the community, the Fifth Judicial Circuit State Attorney’s Office has filed a notice that it intends to seek the death penalty,” the office said.
The office explained the decision by saying, “The decision to pursue the highest penalty reflects the gravity of the charges and the State Attorney’s Office’s dedication to holding criminals accountable for their actions.”

This is the first case to be prosecuted under a new statute that allows for the death sentence for child rapists.
Gladson’s office told WKMG-TV that Giampa’s case had aggravating elements.
Giampa has a history of using or threatening violence against others; the victim in this latest case was especially vulnerable due to the child’s age; the case was especially heinous, atrocious, or cruel; and monetary gain was a factor in the alleged crime, according to the office.
According to a Lake County Sheriff’s Office arrest affidavit, footage showed a youngster being forced to perform a sex act and having intercourse.

According to the New York Post, a video discovered at the time of the arrest showed the child’s alleged abuser expressing that he “likes it more when [the victim] does not like it.”
There are various impediments in the way of Giampa’s execution.
For starters, he must be convicted. A death penalty recommendation would require the support of at least eight members of a jury.
If the death sentence is imposed, appeals to the Supreme Court would pit Florida’s law against U.S. Supreme Court precedent that limited the death penalty to offenses involving the death of a victim.
According to the New York Post, DeSantis, who is running for the Republican presidential nomination, believes child rapists should be executed.
“My view is, you have some of these people that will be serial rapists of six, seven-year-old kids. I think the death penalty is the only appropriate punishment when you have situations like that,” he said last month.
“In Florida, we stand for the protection of children,” DeSantis said after signing the bill, according to CNN. “Unfortunately, in our society, you have very heinous sex crimes that are committed against children under the age of 12 years old.”
DeSantis said when he signed the bill, he expected a challenge, according to the Tampa Free Press.
“And so this bill sets up a procedure to be able to challenge that precedent to be able to say that in Florida, we think that the worst of the worst crimes deserve the worst of the worst punishment and I think that that’s the only thing that’s appropriate.”

We, as conservatives, are always saying that we want to see change but don’t know how to make that happen.
Well, one way to stop it is by not funding it.
Every single time you purchase detergent from Walmart, deodorant from Walgreens, or snacks from Food Lion, you are funding the liberal agenda.
I know it sounds harsh, and I don’t know about you, but I am sick and tired of it.
I am sick of seeing my money go to everything I despise.
That is why I was so glad to find the Public Square app that opened my eyes up to all the patriots out there with stores to shop from that had the same beliefs as I did.
But I also wanted a one-stop shop to start shopping at—you know, that one place that would have everything I needed for my household plus some extras.
I found it, and I had to share it with you!
Pro-American…
Pro-Freedom…
Pro-Liberty…
And happy to do business with Conservatives!
Plus, they’ve been at it for more than three decades!
Everything about them, from design to production to storage and delivery, is 100% American.
Their founder was even included in Obama’s “Most Dangerous Conservatives” list.
After learning those specifics, I knew I had arrived at my destination.
Why, then, have you not heard of them?
Simply put, they don’t advertise at all.
They prefer to stay off the radar.
Everything is personal invitations only.
But now that I’m working with them, I can get you in, and we can change the world together!
The only catch is that I only have a small team, and so many people are reaching out for invites that we are completely swamped.
Companies that are actively working toward our demise should not receive any of our hard-earned money.
They came out and said they aimed to cut the global population in half, from 8 billion to 500 million.
They want to get rid of 94% of the world’s population right now.
Still, we keep spending our money on their large box businesses because we have few other options.
But that’ll all change today.
Allow me to introduce you to the solution.
It’s time to make the “Big Box Switch” and change where you send your dollars each month.
All of that is real, and I’m so excited to tell you about it. I hope you’ll join the mission with me.
Here’s a quick summary of this company that I’m so excited to now be partnered with on this mission:
Sound good to anyone else?
I can get you in, but you can’t just go sign up.
They only want people on the same mission to join, and they’re happy to say “no” to the Far-Left Libs!
They’ve been doing it for 37 years, and it’s been working great.
Oh, and did I mention the products are non-toxic and don’t have all the chemicals and crap like Red Dye 40 that all the big corporations put in their products to weaken you?
To wear you down?
To make you—and your family—sick?
Because then, when you get sick, you’ll buy their drugs!
Sorry folks, I don’t play that game, and neither does my family.
We’re talking about the last all-natural, grass-fed, no-hormone, massive Black Angus beef cattle ranch in the United States.
Sound good?
We’re talking fluoride-free toothpaste, chemical-free cleaners, and Deet-free mosquito repellant!
What novel concepts, right?
Stop sending your money to these 11 corporations that do not have your best interests at heart.
It’s an illusion of choice.
There’s only one pro-American, American-made and manufactured, chemical-free, toxin-free, hormone-free company left, and I’m teaming up with them to FIGHT BACK!
Oh, and that is not all!
Customers who shop at the store also get discounts at 1600 other retail stores, including hotels and Airbnb.
That is not to mention medical discount plans, plans to protect your online identity, home security systems, and even more.
This is why I shop here now.
It has everything and like I said, it is patriot-owned and American-made.
The best part is that it has a 100% satisfaction guarantee and an A+ with the BBB.
Who’s with me?

Say to them Tell them Sassy sent you, and they’ll give you a call, text, or email in return.
Just chill out when that happens.
If you seek a Free Invite (Link here: https://bigboxswitch.com/switchwithsassy), someone from the inner circle will contact you—and I know how unnerving it may be to get a text message from a number you don’t recognize.
You’re going to have a great time chatting with these people, in my opinion.
And they will assist you in setting everything up.
Who else is sick of ingesting arsenic, cadmium, and lead and is ready to do something about it?
