Their actions resulted in the death of an innocent person. Yet they skate, no penalty.
My point is, there should not be a death penalty.
Those that support the death penalty say if you take someone’s life the penalty should be death. I say ok, then this makes sense too.

I do not support the death penalty because there is not justice for the victims of it.
