The jury in the trial of Pittsburgh synagogue mass shooter Robert Bowers found Thursday he is eligible for the death penalty, shifting the focus of the proceeding to whether he should be sentenced to death or life in prison.
No. It’s not about the financial cost. It’s primarily about the possibility of making a mistake. Here, it doesn’t appear to be the case, but even so, like I said, it will still tie up the courts with appeals, when they could be hearing other cases. Just make it a life sentence in the first place and get it over with.
Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.

I didn’t. I said court and lawyer time, not money.
