She is the one that looked into his eyes, not you.

We are not mere dumb animals ~ or 'brood mares' as you suggest.
If we are going to use the authority and power of the state to execute then you should be willing to first prove the truth, and then be willing to carry out the punishment no matter how old the target of execution becomes.
Let's say it took 21 years to determine the truth in a specific instance, and your target of execution is an adult. Do you imagine that it is just to send the executioner out to strike her down just because you think she is an animal? What about her own children, or "spawn" ~ do you get to kill them too?
Frankly private murder is no basis for a modern society.
