NO. A death penalty case is near impossible to win. It typically requires a unanimous decision on the part of the jury.
Do you see any merit in allowing someone given LWOP (In other words sentence is handed down) the ability to choose the death penalty instead?
I can see some merit in that if the criminal is actually guilty and knows there is zero chance of ever being exonerated.
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Comment on the site's auto-correct function. Apparently whenever anyone types in the verb "Trump's" the auto-correct function insists on correcting it to "Trump's". This is unnecessary overkill, don't you think?
But, Trump invented the word, just like the word, ‘groceries’.
But do you agree it should be possible to type the uncapitalized word "Trump" without auto-correct automatically capitalizing it?

I do, but you’d be disrespecting MAGA, and Pam Bondi may then be inclined to pay you a visit.

Other than that, only Shades can change that setting. Being so close to Christmas, you might offer up a fine fruitcake to help convince him.

I can see some merit in that if the criminal is actually guilty and knows there is zero chance of ever being exonerated.
I can also see merit for certain reasons similar to the way that assisted suicide is allowed in some places.

For God's sake, Hooch! Why are you posting his fringe nonsense? We've seen you post enough of this deranged MAGA crap to last a lifetime. It's Christmas time, have some mercy on our souls.

Just saying there will be more of this. A lot more.
I suppose Reiner may have said something about Trump that wasn’t accurate, but I’m not so sure that anyone has posted an example yet.

ETA: You got my attention with this thread to the point that I've taken you off ignore. Thanks a lot, buster. :lol:
Hang on. We are talking about different things.

For a California case, there is no death penatly. I think that is off the table. I was responding generally and not to the Reiner case. That said, I think LWoP is a harsher penalty. And this neck-slicing POS needs the harshest of harsh.

You are welcome. Let the adventures continue.
You should contact the LA District Attorney and correct him on this point, since you apparently know more than he does about California criminal law.
Nick Reiner, who is accused of fatally stabbing his parents, faces a maximum sentence of life without the possibility of parole or the death penalty if convicted, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said.

Lol. What the “F” ever. California has a moratorium on applying the death part of the death penalty. Even better reason to ask for it over LWOP.
Ban Whiskey permanently if that's the only way.

The moratorium will only last as long as Newsom is around, though, right? Kristi Noem said she was going to remove him from office to liberate California. You don't think she'll keep it in place once she has sent Gavin to the gulag, do you?

That's your conspiracy of the day? Didn't see that coming. I heard she is going to feed Newsom and a dog to a dog.
