Sniper Trial |
Can anybody out there explain to me why we are wasting thousands and thousands of dollars in tax payer's time and money to try a cold blooded killer who has already received the death penalty for the same crime in another state? Especially when he is not eligible for the death penalty here?
I don't get it. What will finding him guilty again prove? |

The right to a trial is as much for a victim as it is for a criminal, as well as a central tenet in the Bill of Rights.

I know - it was a rhetorical question for the most part, but when the outcome of a trial won't change anything - I'm not sure I see the point except to go through a ritual. Then again, perhaps it's the ritual that's important.

The publicity that the DA is going to get is pretty important too. Particularly if he has political aspirations.

LOL. Talking on the phone and commenting apparently don't mix.
