Texas pastor says executions would end false rape accusations
Joel Webbon of Right Response Ministries outside of Austin said in a recent sermon that the U.S. should practice eye-for-an-eye justice.

Webbon said Deuteronomy chapter 19 notes that if a citizen is falsely accused of a crime, then the accuser should face the same fate described in the crime. As a result, other citizens would then be sure not to make future false accusations.
"In this scenario in Israel, and this should be the law of the land in our country, in every country, still to this day," Webbon said. "This is a timeless principle." In other words, Webbon suggested that if someone falsely accuses another person of murder, and the suspect is found innocent of that crime, then the accuser "should be put to death."
"If that were to occur, and the just penalties were to be enforced, you the false accuser is now put to death—and that's a public death, a public sentence, publicly carried out," Webbon continued. "Then the citizens of these United States of America, you know what they would do? #MeToo would end real fast. False accusing, playing the victim when you're actually not? You know how to end that real fast? All you have you do is publicly execute a few women who have lied."
