The bottom line is ordsprog

The bottom line is the jury has to decide this issue and if they don't decide it unanimously for death, the judge will impose a penalty of life without parole.

Jeffrey O'Toole

The unanimous sentiment expressed by family members at the time of the trial and years later demonstrates that they believed life without parole was the most appropriate penalty for Mr. Baird, ...

[California] will have to decide, is this a risky process? Does it cause pain? Are there alternatives? I don't see any chance of this case ending the death penalty. But it does raise certain life issues that could affect the larger death-penalty debate.

The decision of competency is not one for a jury to decide, but for a judge to decide.

Judge Sessions must by law impose the death penalty now that the jury has recommended it except in a very narrow circumstance where he finds there was some misconduct on the part of the prosecution... extremely, extremely unlikely in this case.

She never said she never would impose the death penalty. Her answers were that she would have to hear the evidence before she could decide. She clearly would have been a difficult juror for the state to convince in this case ... that does not mean she can't serve in this case.

I know there are people of strongly held views on both sides of the issue ... And I know that the responsibility of a judge confronting this issue is to decide the case according to the rule of law consistent with the precedents, not to take sides in the dispute as a matter of policy, but to decide it according to the law.

People who claim that sentencing a murderer to "life without the possibility of parole" protects society just as well as the death penalty ignore three things: (1) life without the possibility of parole does not mean life without the possibility of escape or (2) life without the possibility of killing while in prison or (3) life without the possibility of a liberal governor being elected and issuing a pardon.

I don't know what the prosecution will ask for but the death penalty is still legal in Ethiopia. On a personal note that is not the penalty I would like to see applied, ...
