Even if we could be 100% certain of guilty 100% of the time, I would still be against castration and the death penalty. Those are both counted as cruel and unusual in my book.
Fair enough. If we could count on 100% certainty, there are a couple of crimes I might consider for it, but even so I have qualms about official killings.
