James Holmes to plead guilty

[cofi]

How insane could he be if he instantly surrendered to the police

I want Holmes to die, preferably once for every person he hurt and killed but that isn't possible. A plea bargain ending with multiple life sentences without the possibility of parole is better all of the way around. He never gets a chance to do it again. He doesn't cost us millions of dollars fighting both against him and for him. He will live in fear every single day of the rest of his life, because like someone else said he would be a "trophy kill" in prison, and he will never see the outside of the walls. The families will also not have to go through the anticipation of whether this appeal will be the last and he will actually be put to death, or if cleared by the courts that the govenor will give him a stay.

The families will not have to testify, relive or otherwise be drug through a painfully long, months for sure, trial not knowing for sure if the bastard will be convicted and sent to prison or to the state hospital with the possibility of being released when he is "better". I cannot even conceive of being on the stand telling the story of how my wife's head exploded next to mine or how I watched my young child died in my arms because of him. Too much trauma for the families after all they have suffered plenty because of this useless f%%k.

This was my point from my post yesterday. This option was offered by Holmes, but the DA elected to go forward solely to seek the death penalty (this was before governor limp dick refused to act on the Nathan Dunlap execution). So, you've got a sure win--life in prison, even though there's a threat of a potential winning move in the insanity plea, and the DA elected to roll the dice on the seemingly non-existent death penalty in Colorado.

Should Holmes die for what he did? Absolutely. But, given the playing field and the legitimate issues in getting the conviction, it seems that DA may have been a tad cavalier.

And for those wishing to revert to Sharia--you may be joking, but last time I checked this is still a state and nation of laws. you know who changes the law to fit their purpose? Comrade Obama. Not here. I'd rather this puke walk free than live one second under the absurd global pestilence that is Sharia.

I completely agree with you. Sharia is babarism. America had founding fathers with wisdom and knowledge of how depraved people and governing systems can be.

Islam was born out of a sick twisted mans diseased mind to repress, rape and control others. Which is something our founding fathers tried to protect us from.

AFTER this douchenozzle is convicted by a jury of his peers, can we feed his sadistic ass feet first into a wood chipper? Pretty Please?

I don't have any qualms with the death penalty but I think permanent incarceration is more punishing than five minutes of burning sensation pulsing through the veins in his left arm before he drifts off into permanent slumber.

I have a problem paying for them for however many years left in their life. They already took plenty from society with their crime, so why should society pay to keep them behind bars for life? Prisoners in for life should receive no life saving or enhancing medical care and should be provided means to end their life.

I'd rather feed into a chipper and turn him into Hog Chow myself. But since that won't happen, lock him up for life in SOLITARY. Let him find out what "insane" is really all about.

If money is the concern, it's cheaper to house/feed them for the rest of their natural lives than to mount a death penalty trial.

I don't care if they hang every truly guilty felon tomorrow morning at sunrise, but from an accounting standpoint, don't think it's cheaper to do the death penalty process.

Anyone remember Jeffrey Damher?

I got 50 pesos that one of the victims families puts a grand on some lifers commisary account and within days he's pining for the fjords.

Whoa, I remember Dahmer being killed in gen-pop, but was it seriously a "hit" paid off via snacks-credits funded by a victim's family?? That's awesome if true.
