Well I know I'll get picked on for saying what I believe ...but I believe people can change, 25 years is a long time. I know I'm not the same person I was just a few years ago....and as a Christian I can't believe that killing someone fixes anything. If he's behind bars all his life what is he going to do other than write more books? Killing is a hate crime! The Bible does say an eye for an eye and all that but that's only one verse..It says more about forgiveness and loving other people. 99% of people on death row were horribly abused as children on a daily basis...If children are not taught love and respect by their parents where are they supposed to get that from. Maybe we should start punishing people who torture their children more...instead of killing off people who have only known hate and abuse most of their lives....and no I don't think anyone getting murdered is something to make little jokes about..No matter how wrong you think what he did was.

He's never admitted to what the evidence overwhelmingly proved: that he brutally murdered four innocent souls in cold blood.

How, then, can you say he has changed?
