I only spent a few minutes glancing over the details of each case, and, along with what was mentioned regarding Troy Davis in ShelleyCrash's thread, it seems as though:
Crowe killed one person, and has since expressed deep regret and remorse.
Davis killed multiple people (the off duty cop, someone else earlier in the night that he admitted to killing). Having one murder conviction is going to affect sentencing dramatically compared to someone who does not have a previous murder conviction.
That falls into the federal sentencing guidlelines BM Bradley mentioned.
The problem with this complaint, Pastor, is that the cases are not the same, therefore the two criminals cannot be compared. Compare Davis' plight to someone who had a previous murder conviction.
