I'm not sure what I think of this. I'm generally against the death penalty anyway, but he is a serial killer, after all. But does his growing mellow with age justify the support mentioned in the article above? Another part of me eels that his 50 years behind bars is a fate worse than death anyway.
#1 2024 - 1981 is 41 years.
Had you read the article, you'd know that he was placed on Death Row in 1975. I'm glad your arithmetic is better than your reading skill.

Agreed.
