(May 25, 2014 at 7:38 am)Wyrd of Gawd Wrote: The whole secret of being a criminal is to know where to commit your crimes with the least risk to yourself. So if you kill someone in a State that has the death penalty you might get it if you get convicted. That Norwegian who killed all of those people a few years ago in Norway only got 20 some years in a nice prison. He would have been beheaded in Saudi Arabia. He would have been facing the death penalty in Texas. He would have gotten life in Minnesota.

Think before you act.

And less than a decade ago, if he had done this in Nebraska and gotten the DP for it, the mandatory mode would have been the electric chair. I realize all jurisdictions in the USA default to lethal injection, now, but it wasn't always that way. I always found that weird about the USA DP.
