Oh come on, just because he beheaded and dismembered his wife and sank her pregnant body in the San Francisco Bay, that doesn't mean he didn't love her and her unborn child. Have pitty on him, he lost his wife and kid.

Frankly, anyone that would try to portray this guy as anything other than Satan's spawn, is someone I'd avoid like the plague. "Oh sure, he's a brutal killer, but he was such a cute kid." Oui vey!
His relatives are some very sick sub-humans.
Did you catch the picture of his parents from yesterday on the lunchbreak? They were outside the courthouse "laughing"! The whole family is just too weird for me!
...Blue Staters, no doubt.
As the one who always tries to see things from both sides I must say this. IF my brother were convicted of murder it would be very hard for me NOT to beg for his life. Yes, it would be difficult, to say the least, as a pro death penalty person to know that my own brother was sentenced to death. My mother would, more than likely, go to an early grave over something like that. Now, I would NOT lie for him, make excuses for his actions or anything like that. If, in fact, he was guilty of something as heinous as murder, I would be the first one to say that he needed to be punished. I believe in accepting responsibility for what you do. But, as a big sister who grew up protecting him, I would be almost emotionally obligated to ask for mercy upon his life. It would be a very difficult situation and I can sympathize with family members who sometimes are secondary victims of the murderers. Does that make sense? Or does it make me sub human?
