True. But it may matter to the survivors of the victims. And during those 20 years, he'll know he's on death row.

The guy is guilty. That was the key verdict. There was discretion for the jury to go either way on the penalty: horrendous crime, but not a previous horrendous criminal history. I could see that go either way.

But guilty he is.

I believe in juries. Really, they almost always do the right thing.

Yes, and he has plenty of reasons to appeal.

He needs a new trial. They didn't prove anything.
