What’s the point? If you get the death penalty in CA, you have a 99% chance of dying of either natural causes or old age. I think in the past 30 years or so, there’s been one execution in CA.
IIRC-—Hillside Strangler has been on Death row for over 35 years...
At a cost of $100,000 per year per prisoner.
Once DP is officially gone, Soros-gascon et al will turn their attention to life-without-parole, then life, then 30 years, then 20, etc. etc. In each case, as the maximum possible penalty, they will argue it is inhumane, cruel, unusual, you know the drill.
I don't think there has been an execution in CA since Ah-nuld was governor, in 2006. Cookie-Whats-his name....
I remember this crime very well. Two innocent young men mercilessly executed in the parking lot of a supermarket. I believe the man who killed them ended up killing another inmate later on. And Gascon wants to reverse his well-deserved death sentence?! What in the world is happening here?? His recall election cannot come soon enough. Get him out of there, please! He’s an absolute disgrace!!
Look up Ricardo Rene Sanders. He was sentenced to death in 1982, forty years ago, for gunning down customers and employees who he herded into a large walk-in refrigerator at a Bob’s Big Boy restaurant in Los Angeles.
He’s still sitting there on Death Row, 40 years later! Appeals still not exhausted. There are many more like him.
A scandal of major proportions.
