    If nobody died but there was an attempt, life sentence is certainly reasonable. I'm only focused on people who actually killed or were directly involved in a killing of an innocent(s).

    So, issues of race, inequalities in the justice system, and ethical questions about the death penalty itself...
    Did @831's Finest seriously just say that what we need to worry about are people escaping from prison and people using insanity pleas in financial crimes trials?

    Almost no one gets the insanity plea though. It is very easy to put the insanity defense down. All you have to do is prove one way or at least make it look like the criminal had any pre determined thought before committing the act or after the act trying to cover it up or knowing that it is wrong is any way(example not telling anyone or running from the cops, etc)

    Example of insanity: Woman kills her child, she walks around with the blood on her like it is no problem and tells her friends its what God told her to do. God wanted to take her child so he told her to k--- it.

    It's not an immediate emergency but when our country is finally stabilized and doesn't have to worry about the much more serious matters in the world, it should be looked into.

    Life is the tougher sentence. Death penalty you hang around a few years until they k--- you and it's over. Life, you're stuck in an isolated box for the rest of your life. If I was one of the victims family members in either case I would've wanted them to have life over the easy way out. Not to mention it's two different states and wacko religious people don't believe in the death penalty if they're one of the jurors. Only one juror voted against the death penalty by the way.

    He should have gotten death. Some f---ing p---- juror needs to grow a pair of balls.
