Russian court convicts man of 1st of 48 murders

[Jaga]

This is unbelievable but true. The guy killed probably more people. He does not have a record, another Russian killed over 60 people.

Why he was caught so late? Anyways, his case is a reason that I believe that we need a death penalty

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Moscow court found former supermarket worker Alexander Pichushkin guilty on Wednesday of the first of 48 murder charges against him, a Reuters reporter inside the courtroom said.

Pichushkin has never denied the murder charges and instead boasted that he fell in love with killing and he has actually killed around 60 people in all.

What can death penalty change in this situation? Nothing.
I am against.

Me too, countries with Death penalties do not have fewer murderers or rapists!

If the guy's "in love" with killing, then the only way to prevent him from killing again is to either keep him in jail until he dies or to kill him.

Killing's cheaper.

And none of this lethal injection stuff, either. A stadium, a platform, and a rope. Maybe even PPV it, and spend the earnings on fixing potholes or education or something.

Y'all are right that capital punishment don't deter murderin' and lootin' and rapin' but neither does jails.

Then again, some studies suggest that the death penalty is a deterrent.

So: issue unresolved.

As for me, I just like pure, unfiltered vengeance.

Of course, the best form of capital punishment is for the cops to just shoot the guy when they arrest him. Then plant a gun on him and say he drew first, or say he was running away, maybe.

Itchy or Scratchy attitude?
