Castration has been used as a legal form of punishment to enable sex offenders to reenter a community with reduced danger of re-offending, according to legal experts. California became the first state to legalize castration, and a handful of states followed suit. Two states have repealed such laws, but eight states, including Florida and Texas, have some form of castration law on the books.

    I assumed this would be chemically castrated, but no, it literally means they’re going to physically castrate this guy.

      Is physical castration a thing? Vasectomies are physical, and that’s seems much easier and more desirable to achieve chemically than castration.
