This is a big flaw in our system; that we treat attempted murder as less than murder.
Should be the same penalty.
I totally agree, then again I think that proven rape, and child molester 1st degree should also be subject to the death penalty. There is NO REASON, that the State Supreme Courts cannot sit in and monitor trials in death penalty cases, and rule within a day whether there are grounds for appeal.
The appeal process is designed to line the pockets of Judges and Lawyers. Prove me wrong.
