I didnt expect that.
Me either. Figured he would've rung the "mentally insane" shammy until it was bone dry. I wonder what changed is his deranged head?Quote:

Haven't seen the story yet, but I am betting this was to avoid the death penalty.
I bet they put him in the state hospital cos' he is on meds. I bet the lawyers think that too. If they put him in general population, somebody will kill him.

His desire to live is evidence of his sanity. Get a rope.
That's what I was thinking. And yes, I am all for saving the tax-paying citizens a few bucks and having a 230 grain microchip implant placed in his head.Quote:

Defense attorneys representing Aurora theater shooting suspect James Holmes have offered to have him plead guilty and spend the rest of his life in prison in exchange for avoiding the death penalty, 9NEWS has confirmed. This is only an offer from the defense team.
Great!
So we get to pay for his ass to rot in jail!
Crucify the mother fucker!
Offer denied :rolleyes:
Actually- it costs a lot more to keep someone on death row for 15+ years with all the appeals and what not than it does to just have them rot for life.Quote:

LOL, this jail/prison stereotype always cracks me up. Unfortunately, unless you are a sex offender, you will probably never see reprisal in lock up. Being a notorious case AND being a potential victim will only get him PC for the rest of his life...Quote:

Real prison ain't no joke. Gen pop = he springs a leak.
the news article had the good quote by that (father of a victim?), " be courageous and just kill yourself."
So we can demand they try him and sentence him to death. The tax payers are on the hook for a million plus in the cost to try him. With a case this big the sentence will likely be appealed and if there is one I that is not dotted or one t that was not crossed in a police report or document presented at his trial there's a good chance he will be retried costing the tax payers even more money. There's also a chance that if something wasn't done correctly the trial could be declared a mistrial and he would go free. If everything is good to go and he is tried, found guilty and sent to death row he will likely never be executed and tax payers will be on the hook for his special detainment on death row and all of his legal costs incurred filing appeals. He'll likely die of old age on death row before he is executed and the tax payers will be on the hook for countless millions of dollars.
If the Prosecutors office accepts his request, he goes to prison for the rest of his life and will most likely spend the remainder of his life in solitary confinement. Mr. Holmes is going to be an extremely high profile inmate and anyone who kills him in prison will be deemed a hero because he is going to be considered a trophy. Spending a lifetime in a one man cell on 23 hour a day lock down is as good as any torture I've heard of.
As much as I'd like to see this dude fry I know it won't happen either way so in the interest of tax paying citizens I'm all for the plea deal that will sentence him to spend the rest of his natural life in a Colorado prison.
This is the biggest non news story of the day. His attorney's know he is not insane and will hang, if the little bugger gets out he will do it again. They offered to plead guilty, what a joke. It is not like he negotiated and actually plead out.
A conspiracy by the leftists and the post to make the DA look bad.
I agree! Hang his Ass in Civic Park.Quote:

I wonder if this scumbag's dad will plea to Hickenidiot that solitary confinement is too cruel and maybe he should be in minimum security.
You got it all wrong. Try him, convict him, sentence him to death. He'll be on the fast track to a needle in his arm. Just ask Nathan Dunlap.Quote:

James Holmes won't be the defendant, the Second Amendment will.
The prosecutors would be sheer idiots not to take this offer. First and foremost, you have a guaranteed outcome. You have the guy in custody forever. There has been exactly one person executed in Colorado since 1977--it's not like this is Texas where executions are regularly happening several years after conviction. There are currently three people on death row in Colorado--Nathan Dunlap has been there since 1996.
If you proceed with the trial and pursue the death penalty, you still have a chance of losing the case. It may be slim-but there's always a chance. Not many people thought Casey Anthony would walk, either. Plus, there's the insanity plea that would happen if the death penalty is sought.
Plus, you just had an issue where legislation was proposed to end the death penalty in Colorado. There's a lot to lose by going forward on a death penalty case with a very small reward. Best case scenario this guy would be executed 15-20 years from now.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm for the death penalty, but the way it is administered in Colorado doesn't inspire any confidence.
