[QUOTE="jakeman, post: 3676977, member: 10690"] Not to be cavalier about it, but I'm okay with this guy spending the rest of his life locked up instead of becoming a martyr and poster boy. As I've aged, I've softened my stance on capital punishment, some. I'm still in favor of it in most cases where it is considered. As others have said, I think the guv found him self in an unenviable position. No win. No way. No how. Wasn't possible. I think when you find yourself in that position, and you get to choose life or death for someone, like a Roman Emperor's thumb up or down, you err on the side of caution and spare the life. I'm glad it was Stitt and not me making the decision. I have a tremendous amount of empathy for the victim's family as well. I wish them peace and understanding, and all of God's grace as they struggle thru this, and have to relive the memories of the crime all over again. [/QUOTE]
