This person should have already been tried, convicted and executed. Some crimes are so obvious that it’s a travesty of justice to let the killer live more than 30 days. What possible reason could there be for this person not to receive the death penalty and to have it carried out ASAP?

I am a firm believer in the death penalty. Not necessarily for its deterrent value but for its penalty value. If the certainly of capture, trial and application of the death part is enhanced in some cases by the addition of deterrence then IMHO it’s just serendipity.

You’re right. You’re entirely correct, BUT, if he were rushed through, it would set an unpleasant precedent for others and eventually abused. Due process must be followed and maintained, no matter how odious and obviously guilty the suspect.
