An infamous Louisiana man who attempted to rape a young child has reportedly agreed to a different form of punishment: physical and chemical castration. According to KPLC, the man Thomas Allen McCartney took a plea deal in the case indicating he was okay with castration. He will also go to state prison for at least 40 years according to the Vernon Parish District Attorney’s office. Â
He was first arrested in 2023 after attempting to rape a child that was under the age of 13. At the time, authorities collared him trying to sexually abuse a then 7-year-old girl.
