Some talking heads are saying that the prosecution should never have gone for the death penalty, that the jury may have been so afraid the death penalty would be used they wanted to neutralize that possibility. I thought it was the jury who determines the penalty as well as a verdict. How could they come up with that excuse for this jury?
