Castration: A Proposed Treatment Strategy for Sex Offenders
Castration by some is considered to be cruel and unusual punishment.  Others view it as a way for a convicted sex offender to obtain a reduced sentence, and yet there are some whom believe it may be the only cure.  Many questions arise concerning several issues, methods, and results.  Are we as Americans allowing the judicial system to toy with our bodily integrity?
	Castration first began in Europe in Denmark in 1929 and continued to spread through the 1930’s into Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, and Holland.  The United States was unchanging in their belief that the rights of the individual outweighed the interests of the community in general.  Then, in 1938, Judge Lawrence Neil Turrentine, of the San Diego County Superior bench, began offering voluntary castration and long probationary periods to convicted sex offenders.  If they declined this offer, then their only other alternative was a lengthy prison sentence.  No actual opposition arose from this dicey substitute, but no endorsements were offered either. 
Following World War II, studies were produced that demonstrated the ineffectiveness of physical castration and attitudes towards castration began to change,
