DNA links this serial rapist and murderer to the crime. Perhaps with a few more conservative SCOTUS appointments by the Trump Administration, states will once again be able to execute serial murdering rapists, regardless of their age.

Rape and Murder should be automatic execution. Period. Same with pederasty and pedophiles. Execute them all.

I give him a lot more to worry about than just the death penalty.

Yup.

But I would add that if anyone lies about someone trying to rape or murder them, they get the same sentence of execution.

“Rape and Murder should be automatic execution.”

As long as there is a way to exclude the cases where she changed her mind the next day from that punishment.

Except for the amount of testilying by cops and railroading by prosecutors.

I say try him as an adult. He is entitled to his day in court. But if he did these things he should be locked up forever. His age means he can’t be executed. But he can be imprisoned for life w/o parole.

Yeah, that’s an issue with me as well. My enthusiasm for capital punishment has cooled over the years.

Capital punishment for juveniles in the United States existed until March 1, 2005, when the U.S. Supreme Court banned it in Roper v. Simmons.

I’m in favor of the death penalty, but I can’t imagine why one would think spending the rest of one’s life in prison is preferable to death.

Governments shouldn’t kill people.

The way I see it, the death penalty will be applied one way or another. If society doesn’t execute convicted murderers, murderers will apply the death penalty to innocent citizens.

Governments are comprised of citizens. Citizens are what make up the jury pool of which the guilty are convicted. Juries of citizens decide life or death.

The problem still remains that most times it takes decades to finally get them to the execution. Some have sat on death row 30-40 years.
