Gary Graham was not prosecuted for his multiple murders. Such cases can be expensive to prosecute. Get one conviction and they are "done" with it. He shot one of his victims through the jaw. But that victim lived to testify.
But since Gary was unsuccessful in that attempt, it wasn't "murder". There were other cases. But the defenders of Gary Graham (and his was one of the high profile celebrity causes) were unhappy with some details of the case he had been sentenced for.
Any doubt that he was guilty of murder? Or are we going to haggle over which murder?
I don't believe in using the death penalty lightly.
I DO believe that the death penalty should be an option in some vote fraud cases. There is no crime more in violation of the principles of this nation.
If this wasn't a death penalty case, then I don't know what is.
