Just trying to educate. Sometimes it can’t be done.

Maybe helpful:
In popular usage, the word pedophilia is often applied to any sexual interest in children or the act of child sexual abuse.[1][2][7] This use conflates the sexual attraction to prepubescent children with the act of child sexual abuse and fails to distinguish between attraction to prepubescent and pubescent or post-pubescent minors.[8][9] Researchers recommend that these imprecise uses be avoided, because although some people who commit child sexual abuse are pedophiles,[7][10] child sexual abuse offenders are not pedophiles unless they have a primary or exclusive sexual interest in prepubescent children,[8][11][12] and some pedophiles do not molest children.[13]

Apparently, treatment is more complex than immediate death:
There is no evidence that pedophilia can be cured.[25] Instead, most therapies focus on helping the pedophile refrain from acting on their desires.[7][82] Some therapies do attempt to cure pedophilia, but there are no studies showing that they result in a long-term change in sexual preference.[83] Michael Seto suggests that attempts to cure pedophilia in adulthood are unlikely to succeed because its development is influenced by prenatal factors.[25] Pedophilia appears to be difficult to alter but pedophiles can be helped to control their behavior, and future research could develop a method of prevention.[84]

There is more learning that can be done right at ones fingertips for one who chooses to educate oneself.

Again, not trying to defend anyone or pick an argument. I actually have experience in the field of both adult and child sexual abuse. The tragedies are inexplicably horrendous and many times result in death and/or suicide, and not only for the offender.
