The death penalty needs to be scrutinized and most states need to revise their death penalty "systems."

But, I still think there are instances in which people deserve the death penalty (e.g., Timothy McVeigh, Jeffrey Dahlmer, and KSM). I also do not know of any people who were put to death wrongfully.
Who's KSM?

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of 9/11. I probably should have spelled his name out in the previous post.

I don't want to come across heartless but an eye for an eye. When that thug pulled the trigger he knew who's house he was in. We all know the story of Taylor giving him weekend jobs and they were criminal enouph to rob him, and kill him. I am really pissed they won't face the same fate he did. Not to ramble but the one kids grandmother went to court with a "free my son" shirt on it kind of twists the knife.

I wonder what his role in the whole act was, was he with them in the house or what? If he was then why did it take this long to get him?

The Supreme Court has already ruled that it is unconstitutional to execute anyone for a crime committed while they were a minor, so the death penalty was never a possibility for the shooter, Eric Rivera, (17 at the time) or this individual (who is apparently 16). Even when the execution of minors was possible there were only three states (Texas, Oklahoma, and Virginia if memory serves) that had actually executed a minor in recent memory.

Costs of the Death Penalty
You gotta be kidding me?? Not trying to turn this into a political debate but when you kill someone in cold blood you should be thrown into a alligator pit and it should be broadcasted on pay per view. Do away with all of this bullshit appeal nonsense. I bet that would stop all of this gun violence.

Yes, public executions and denial of any legal appeals process would sure do the trick. Damn the Bill of Rights, full speed ahead!

Cases like this are not really all that uncommon.

When you have a clear cut case like this one then there should be no trial for the trigger man. He should be put in front of a firing squad.
