Still.. I bet prison life is not all it is cracked up to be. The "general population" likely will have some "fun" with him. The isolation he would need would be for most part unbearable. Might be worse than death, who knows..
I think it's a very fitting judgement and I wish that we would actually see the authorities follow through with the cocktail. I do think he needs to suffer a little while on death row first, though.
Part of me actually pities the guy. Death row would be a horrible existence. He'll be with such lovely people like Richard Allan Davis (Polly Klass's murderer) Richard Rameriz (sp?) (night
stalker) I mean it's gotta be your worst nightmare to have these people as your neighbors.
And I agree that he'll die of old age before he gets the needle. California has the biggest DR in America, because they don't put people to sleep there.
I believe Polly Klass's father, Mark, said that there is an agenda among defense attorneys to keep the appeals going forever in their silent protest against the death penalty.
Who knows, but they sure don't seem to kill them like our southern neighbors do.
I gotta tell you though, When I saw those verdicts come in, it made me sick the way people were clapping and cheering. That was offensive and inappropriate. This was a serious offense, and penalty. It's not supposed to be a party.
I agree with you Rottiegrrrl, it IS offensive and inappropriate. Putting someone to death is nothing to be happy and cheer about, no matter what the person did.
I'd rather they abolish the death penalty and send those who merit it to a place like Harry Potter's "Azkaban," where there is no joy, and no hope, and not a moment's comfort or relief for the rest of their damnable lives.
Yeah but that would be "cruel." Today, anything that fits the definition of "punishment" by society's standards fits the definition of "cruel" by a liberal activist court, so we get to support these monsters in a lifestyle which approximates a camp for wayward youth, and at huge cost.
Or - we could leave them in San Quenton, oopen all the doors and turn the power off. Withdraw all the guards and let the other inhabitant fend for themselves. I'd even allow a food and water drop once a week.
I think he would suffer more w/life w/o parole and be put in the general population, but death is good too. At least unlike OJ he didn't get away with it.

I think that you will die of old age before he dies of a lethal injection.
I think he should, I just don't think it will happen.

He won't be in with the general population - he'll be on death row.

Part of me thinks that the defense attorneys keep the appeals going as long as possible to keep the revenue streams from drying up.

Well -- he is in San Quentin now. 643 others there waiting for the same penalty, at taxpayer expense, and *justice* not being carried out.

With the Terminator in that state maybe justice will speed up.

For my money - Satori's on the right track.

Peterson at least won't be getting Robert Blake for a neighbor anytime soon.
Whoa, he was creepy in that "Lost Highway" movie...

Hell yeah, he gets three hots and a cot for the rest of his life, regardless.
And he's already had marriage proposals from woman calling the prison.
Not a bad life eh?
