No sir, you have not hit a nerve at all Jim. The death penalty, which I agree with, is not effective in deterring crime. This I'm sure you know from your line of work. Here in the states the death penalty is never served timely. Appeal after appeal is made. It drags on for decades. This guy will probably get off on some technicality anyway. The news of it will not hit the likes of Al Sharpeton because it was a crime of opportunity as I'm sure it will be labelled. Everyone will go on about their business.
