The answer many want to know - WHY?

I always say for scum murderers as this animal. Just give the mother and father of the victims 5 minutes alone with the guy. No weapons - just hands and feet. Take their anger out on the animal.For those who may feel that this would be wrong... consider what he DID to those young people. Many here in the USA care more about the murderer than the victim and their family. Awful.

But now in prison this animal will have his "rights". Able to have a girlfriend, perhaps get married. Write a book. Interviews to continue his "fame".

The death penalty and its ongoing legal moves, and $$$$, is outrageous.

I do hope that a fellow prisoner takes him out. nice and slow and painful. Oh - that's wrong to think that way??? Always go back to his murderous act.... And all the lies. And all the legal expense for the State. And the victim families.

The Judge does not have to accept the plea deal.

One commentator here says that a conviction based upon an eye witness account should be enough to execute the person. Yet, studies after studies have concluded that eye witness testimony is among the most unreliable "proof" that exists. In the excitement of the moment, people swear to things that simply did not occur!

As for lawyers making lots of money out of this, that argument is specious. Those states that have capital punishment attorneys (i.e. lawyers paid by the state) for appeals, these lawyers are among the worst paid. Most of the appellate attorneys work pro bono for large firms that wish to make sure that the accused has gotten a fair trial before allowing society to put a person to death! As for trial attorneys representing accused murderers, they are often unqualified (e.g. they have never handled a capital murder case before), incompetent (drunk) and even in the best of circumstances, underfunded. Nothing can match the investigatory powers of the state. They have unlimited funds, resources and manpower. Capital murder atttorneys, in some instances, may get less than $1000 to represent an accused murdered...out of which that attorney must conduct an investigation.

Before blaming the attorney or the court system, please keep in mind that putting a person to death is a BIG thing. For those of you that seek prison justice, please be aware justice is meeted out by our judicial system not by the barbaric pecking order that is in effect in many prisons.

You forgot North Korea. Not everybody agrees let multi cold blooded killers escape death penalty. But our system seems to let them die of old age anyway so lawyer can collect their welfare check appealing till they die of old age.
