It is of course possible that he's completely fine but a bunch of doctors doing evaluations and treating someone with the intention of them getting better or making a full recovery, can easily lose sight of the fact that public perception is something that sometimes also has to be dealt with. I doubt public opinion will ever accept that its ok for a person such as this to be re-integrated into society and be unsupervised. But then again, I am sure _Richard_ is moments away from convincing his mom they can share the couch together,... because he just cares so much more than you do.

Of course. But so too is it possible that he could relapse at some point. Some may be fine with rolling those dice. I'm not.

I'm vehemently against the death penalty - for many reasons...here are my 2 biggies.

1. It's incredibly easy to frame someone, especially for a dirty cop.
2. Many DA's are corrupt and will do anything, fudge any evidence to improve their conviction record.

There aren't many injustices in this society that are worse the execution of an innocent person - and it has happened many many times.

this was funny though "How nice for the poor misunderstood beheader."

In my view those types of cases where there is some ambiguity would be exempt. As I said, only those rare few capital cases that come around from time to time where there is no doubt as to what happened and who did it should be considered, again in my view.

Yes, the poor bus beheader. lol. As you can see I'm all broken up about that man's rights, as Clint Eastwood said in Dirty Harry.

But that's only shortening the punishment. Killing them isn't punishment. Instead, put them into a dark dank cell and force them to eat bread and water for the rest of their lives.

I agree except for the part where the taxpayers have to foot the bill for the rest of his life to fee and house him.
