Shut Up! All he got was 50 years! You kill an adult, who can defend themselves & you get the death penalty; you kill a child, who CANNOT defend themselves & you get a slap on the wrist. That's OK, once the other prisoners find out what he's in there for, they will take care of him. I doubt very seriously that this sick !@#$ will be alive very much longer.

The words "An eye for an eye; a tooth for tooth; a life for a life." means absolutely nothing anymore in this country.

In my opinion, you kill someone; you should die for it.

The death penalty is nothing but state sponsered murder.
