When you also include the fact that there have been quite a few innocent people who have been executed... and thus that makes the state a murderer... It's time for the death penalty to go away.
I utterly believe in killing to protect myself and others from an imminent threat, but once someone is arrested, the state should have no business beating, torturing, or executing people. Just lock them up forever.... and then, in case you find out years later that they were actually innocent, at least they are still alive and they can be freed.

He was responsible for quite a few deaths and quite a few limbs lost ... Would you really want him released as rehabilitated from prison in 30 years back into the society he cared nothing for committing an act of unspeakable premeditated terrorism?
What this story does not say is that he will be kept in protective custody for the rest of his life, with a 5 year or so at the time judgement/time has been served. He will never get out among the public. :2 cents:
