This is precisely what troubles me. Kelly Gissendaner gets executed for a crime of passion, the actual killer gets a lesser sentence.
I strongly support the death penalty... we need a death penalty precisely for ... evil monsters and serial killers....Not saying Kelly Gissendaner was innocent. Clearly guilty and deserving of a severe punishment. I am saying a life sentence for her would have sufficed IMHO.
Now I understand. I was commenting on the danger of a one-size-fits-all rule such as abolishing the death penalty entirely. Your earlier post about "the end of the death penalty" was not clear as to your position; but now you've made yourself clear.
Thanks.
I want to reaffirm that I am firm supporter of the death penalty.
However, if it is used in cases such as this, I do think it will eventually be done away with altogether in the US.
Just my opinion. I would have had serious reservations pulling the switch on Kelly Gissendaner. In fact, I wouldn’t have never done it myself.
