Who knew that Truman Capote was among usth.

What would be your retribution? Nonsarcastic question by the way

Maybe nothing at all.
The point is, this action would be irrevocable.

I must have missed the part where he claimed to have never been a part of anything

We shouldn't kill to teach other people not to kill

By the way, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate the "prefix" for this thread being "Life"

Life in prison.

I'm not sure how old this man is, but a 30 year sentence would certainly be retribution.

Would you feel that 30 years was enough if it was say, your father who had stopped to help these assholes?

He didn't kill the man. We know that much.

Maybe no new evidence comes available. The point is the corrective action would be irrevocable.

But three family's don't have a member of their families anymore. And we are going to put him up in prison and spend tax dollars on a man who killed 3 people. that is my point of view...by no means am I putting you down for your stance, this is a free country and you can believe what you want to believe.

I just look at it as, this man took 3 lives, destroyed 3 families...all for what? a broken down car and some drugs? There is no justification for what he did.

As were his actions.

I don't think the death penalty should be given out lightly. I'm ok with the fact that death penalty cases take years to go through the courts. But there are times when it is the right decision.

I hope therman doesn't hold me responsible for the blowback. I objectively am, for posting the decision. But I consciously chose to post only the words of the Court of Appeals with no accompanying opinion of my own. I think that was a fair step using a credible source.

Yeah, and the people that died as a part of all this will never had a chance at anything either, so tough shit, he should have thought about that before doing any of this shit

I'm surprised it took this long for someone to play this card.
You invoke my sentiments with this analogy...
And I think we all know that when an individual's feelings are involved they don't always make the most rational decisions.

If taking lives is wrong. It must be wrong across the board.

its what keeps me from killing people.:evil:
