I think it's great 'he got both'.... a long term jail sentence while he waits for his execution.

Death Sentence criminals are generally kept in a small cell by themselves.....all their meals are pushed thru a slot, they eat alone. ....no recreation either....black and white TV...and books...they can go out of their cells just 3 times a week and it's into a caged area...and that has to be earned.

McVeigh was executed on June 11, 2001, only four years after he was convicted so this guy may not have as much jail time as he thinks.....though McVeigh didn't have the long list this guy has.... Ideally he'd be sent to 'ADX Florence',.... or 'Alcatraz of the Rockies' in Colorado .....It's a supermax prison designed to hold the worst offenders in the federal prison system ....It's been described as a 'high-tech version of hell',...... while former inmates have said it is intended to inflict 'misery and pain'.

The prisoners there are in solitary confinement, spending 23 hours a day in their their 7-by-12-foot concrete cells...watch a black and white TV... and read books to pass the time. If they behave well, they may be allowed out to exercise in a one-man recreational area....Shower is on a timer...

Home Sweet Home..Concrete City!

Terra Haute, Indiana, is the only federal death row facility now, although the accommodations are probably sparse until it fills up with Muslims. Then it will become a Club Med.

I kept thinking using Timothy McVeigh as a federal death sentence case example is wrong.

There were very strong incentives for the gubmint to hush up the case. They don’t want him lingering for decades and more people digging into gubmint investigations.

For this Tsarnaev guy, I don’t know. Gubmint know he’s moooooslem, his cell treatment would be very different from McVeigh’s.

Some on a news program yesterday said That the Boston Bomber would be sent to a Super Max facility South of Terra Haute Indiana

McVeigh’s execution was relatively swift because McVeigh didn’t engage in endless appeals; this Boston terrorist in contrast, will make endless appeals.

Considering the maiming he did, way too light a sentence. But that’s life.
