Although I'm probably alone here, and don't know all the details of the case, I don't believe in the death penalty and I'm okay with the verdict. Let the bastard rot in jail. A lifetime caged seems just for such an animal.
Btw, I have been only on one murder trial, but capital punishment wasn't an option. What happens if you get one person on the jury who doesn't believe in capital punishment under any circumstance. It seems there'd be a real deadlock if he/she is up against everyone else who is for it. I'm thinking perhaps maybe before a trial begins, the judge/lawyers may ask when the screen the jurors no?
