According to your system, logically the smartest thing to do would be simply to execute pedophiles. Since we aren't doing that, presumably we are rehabilitating them. Since we are rehabilitating them, presumably we believe it is possible to rehabilitate them.

So what evidence do you have to challenge the criminal rehabilitation system in the USA?

This doesn't follow. We could just be locking them up for as long as we are allowed to to keep them away from society.
