Don't get me wrong, I am in no way condoning what he did, but I wasn't there, neither were you. I thought to get just 1 life sentence you had to kill someone...? But 3x life? What's the point of that? Did he kill his whole family?
And if he's never going to get out, why bother feeding him for the next 75 (?) years, at about $30,000 per year? Why not just put him to death now and save us all a bunch of money?
it would be an interesting comparison, but I heard somewhere that keeping a dude on death row is waaaaaaaaay more expensive than keeping him in GenPop. Personally I wish they would reopen Chateau D'if!
