Without spinning this into another divergent discussion on the ethics of the death penalty, I will say that I do not agree that this individual should be given the death penalty. Looking at it from the hypothetical point of view you provided, I would say the same thing; whether it's my own child or someone else's child, I would still not condone the state-sanctioned killing of any individual.

I do believe in the death penalty for certain crimes, but in this case i do not think that justice will be served for those who survived or the ones who have lost loved ones. This crime is so bad that this person should have to suffer in solitaire confinement for the rest of his life, he should have to suffer along the family and friends of all the victims. To me even this is not enough, but there is a limit that man can go to.

I agreed let the asshole suffer, hard labour for the rest of his life, or locking in a maximum security psycho-hospital as there is something not right in his head, I heard the the death penalty my be used and it will be the first since 1997. If he does I say the lethal injection is to good for him, gas the fucker.
