Peterson Judge Sentences Him to Death
Yahoo! News - Peterson Judge Sentences Him to Death
I suppose a lot of people feel justice has been served here.
I am not really big on the death penalty. Mainly because I feel all it is is state sanctioned murder; I feel further that putting people to death does not deter crime. I used to feel differently until I read 'Dead Man Walking', it seriously changed my views on the death penalty. But something about *this* particular case and to quote the judge 'the callousness' of Mr. Peterson sends chills to my heart. This man as far as I can tell shows absolutely no remorse for what he's done here - in fact if you ask me in most of the pictures I've seen of him he looks almost defiant. Grant it I don't know how I'd look either - but then I would not have the balls to do what he did either. I'd have just walked from my wife if I couldn't stand her/didn't love her anymore. The cruelty and horror of this crime is simply unnerving to me - especially when I look at my children and grandchildren - I mean how could he???
