He deserved to die. Justice demands it. Glad he turned his life around. If he accepted Christ as his saviour, then no loss and all gain for him, and he has been released from the burden of his brutal past.
If he deserved to die is not for us to decide. He turned his life around. So God probably forgave him and he is in Heaven. I have no idea.
It is interesting that Jesus Christ didn’t rail against the death penalty. Give long speeches about how you shouldn’t destroy one of God’s greatest creations. Speak about how innocent He was. Or more so - defend the thieves along side of him.
It sounds like Sutton let Jesus save him finally. I’m hoping he helped a lot of others in prison before he was finally sent home to the Lord.
There you go, right there. And that is the truth.
“He deserved to die. Justice demands it.”
Justice in Minnesota does not demand death.
Justice is relative.
