Could The Death Sentence Save Lives
I just read about 3 teens in Philadelphia that got life sentences for killing a friend to get $500.00. Prosecutor's had sought the death penalty but last weeks Supreme Court ruling banning the exaction of anyone that commits a capitol crime before the age of 18 prevented that.
When I was in high school, around the age of 16 one of my class mates murdered a taxi driver for less then $100.00. He stabbed his victim around 110 times. He was sentenced to life in prison. He was released around twenty years later. He and a friend from prison later robbed and murdered and elderly couple. They were captured tried and sentenced. Both received a lethal injection. Now I'm wondering. If my class mate would have been exacted for his first murder would the elderly couple still have become murder victims? I also wonder if we will be reading about the three teens for Philadelphia again in another twenty years or so?
God Bless America, God Save The Republic.
