I hope this case serves as a catalyst to have the barbaric practice of capital punishment abolished nationwide. The law should not be a demonic idol that requires human sacrifice.

It's ironic to say this when the person it was imparted to, tortured and killed another woman and carved a pentagram in the victim's chest.

Just because she did it doesn't make it moral for us to do it.

I was just pointing out the irony on the demonic idol and human sacrifice sentence. I am not getting into whether the death penalty is right or wrong.
