Uh, the prosecutor was screaming at the of his lungs that this guy was a one-man violence and death machine just waiting to be loosed on a new batch of innocent victims. But Clemmons, a manipulative sociopath, said "Praise Jesus! I've seen the light!" and Pastor Huckabee wiped a tear from his eye and said, "Praise Jesus! Come forth from that tomb, ye reborn of the Lamb!"
That’s a prosecuter’s job, but they aren’t always right. There are many factors involved in sentencing.
