I'm absolutely disgusted that he got the death penalty... I hope that the judge is a mean SOB who realizes that the death penalty is too good for this POS, and reverses the jury's decision (he can reverse death penalty to life, but cannot reverse life to death penalty).
Scott Peterson does NOT deserve the death penalty, and here's why: The article at kansascity.com was free earlier today... it's still free but now you have to sign up for access to it...Kansas City Article
Some snippets from the article:
California has only executed 10 guys since the death penalty was reinstated in 1978. Those guys sat on death row an average of 16 years. Nine death row inmates have lived there for more than 25 years.
In his cell, he can keep a tv, books, a music player, a wall poster, pictures of family. Closed circuit tv shows movies occassionally. He can take in cell study courses, and request law journals as well as other books. Family members will/can visit him during scheduled hours, or he can call them on a phone that rolls by on a cart every day. Inmates can shower every day, on their own by themselves, in a secured shower, escorted there in handcuffs by guards. There is no lights out time, he can stay up as late as he wants. He cannot hold a job.
My comments:
If he had received life without possibility of parole, he would have been separated from general population only until his formal sentencing in February. Once he hit general population, since he's such a good looking guy, someone would definately offer to protect him from the others who want to kill the baby/wife killer. You be my beeotch, and I'll keep you safe. But he can't stay safe forever, because there are no guarantees that his 'sugar momma' will be assigned to the same job that he is...
So what do you think he deserves? A nice safe life with TV and books, protected from the general population while awaiting his appeals, and maybe his execution in 25 years? Or to be someone's beeotch for life, and maybe survive 25 years?
