“Woods and the Schoenfelds planned their crime for more than a year and, in 1976, all pleaded guilty to kidnapping. They were each given 27 life sentences WITHOUT the possibility of parole.”
An appellate panel, which included the governor’s late father, state Judge William Newsom, REDUCED the kidnappers’ sentences in 1980, giving them the chance at parole.”
Read the above again. That’s why I support the Death Penalty. There is simply NO SUCH THING as ‘throwing away the key’, as a future judge can do whatever he pleases (or whatever Soros asks of him). This is a PERFECT example, although I’m glad he did a decent amount of time, this time.
We have no death penalty. They put them in the can and let them out at best. This guy should be dead with his head on somebody’s fence.
The death penalty especially since the victims dug themselves out. What would have happened to them otherwise? It’s not like the kidnappers made a deal to release them or the police found the victims.
