Or perhaps sentencing guidelines that are too weak. Don't know the specifics of the law in this case.

Bingo. "Strong" Guidelines is a bit of an oxymoron though. Mandatory sentencing which removes the power of discretion from Judges who practice progressive justice for criminals convicted of crimes against children
is the answer. Forty something states have moved in this direction with the usual suspects holding out (MA, VT, NY, etc.).
