It's not justice to let a murdering bastard live after the fucking horrific job he did on those poor innocent people at the Marathon.The answer to your question lies within the instructions given to the jurors by the judge in this case. In determining the sentence the jurors where given two choices: life in prison without parole or the death sentence. It is the former which is the appropriate sentence in this case. The death penalty is not justice. It is cruel and inhuman punishment. Punishment based on "an eye for an eye" philosophy is barbaric. Violence carried out by state only perpetuates further violence by cheapening the value of life.
It's natural to want revenge against a killer. I admit that I would like to see this killer tortured in the cruelest way imaginable and finally killed.
However, statistics show that capital punishment simply doesn't work as a deterrent. The classic example was that pickpockets practised their trade at public executions at a time when such trivial theft was a capital crime. Nor does the murder rate decrease in states when it is instituted.
How about this statistic? Not a single executed prisoner has ever committed an additional crime. The only reason capital punishment is not a deterant is because we do not use it enough.
In my opinion, they should use predetor drones to kill the fucking mother. Hanging the son and and using a drone to wipe out the fucking mother would make me feel pretty darn good.
Being a deterrent makes no difference to me, it just saves the tax payers a lot of money to have this POS in jail for 50 years.
Throw the turd in general population during recreation time is all that would be needed.
I agree with you Sol Tee. I don't care if it is a deterrant or not. Kill the fucker in the slowest most gruseome way possible. Fuck him....How's that?
