Is there at least a law to deprive the rapist of parental rights? Otherwise it is a very evil loophole allowing one to benefit from a very serious crime.

I imagine police would be overwhelmed by men reporting themselves for rape, if it was that easy.

In some states, even a conviction for rape doesn't terminate parental rights.

This man raped a child, was convicted of raping that child, was convicted of raping another child, and then successfully sued said child for access to the offspring conceived in court.
