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.

Jamal's death sentence was suspended by a judge in December 2001. There still may be a chance he could get a new sentencing hearing and get the death penalty, but I think that is unlikely. For all practical purposes Jamal's death sentence was commuted.
