Does PA have the death penalty? If so, it sounds like the boyfriend just volunteered for it.

I wonder if the girl will be charged. That "Lizzie Borden" thing is eerie...I wonder if it's like having the middle name "Wayne"?

PA technically does have the death penalty but only 3 have been executed since 1976, that's seven fewer than California and Gov. Rendell (D) appears to be trying to play the "race card" to halt the death penalty so I wouldn't expect such a sentence to come into play here.

Pennsylvania has the death penalty. Mummia Abu Jamal murdered a policeman in Philadelphia decades ago and has yet to be executed. I figure a Lancaster County jury will give him life.
It has been said that this killer had a problem with another girl and her parents earlier this year. That family was fortunate.
