Will the Boston Jury Vote to Kill the Marathon Bomber ?

Unfortunately the massive flow of money into our legal system through appeals is what keeps it afloat.

I know this may be hard for you to grasp, but for those of us who haven't spent our lives in the drug trade, jaywalking is not the equivalent of drug dealing.

I don't disagree with your thinking, but I wonder whether it costs more to keep him or kill him. There are studies and "experts" seeming to suggest whatever they want you to believe. 

Costs 10/20x more to kill the sacks á chit if I remember the statististic correctly. Complete waste of money, deters nothing and a shipload of money at our expense to put some worthless element on death and watch him die of old age. !00% against cap punishment, unless of course it is carried out in the same manner as the Thais. They convict you and walk you out to the gallows a week later. The only expense is a bucket to crap in, a bowl to eat out of and a shovel to dig the hole.

Life in prison in the U.S is far less costly, far more cruel and a lot more tortuous for these savages. My opinion anyway.

As mr_bollox noted, this is Massachusetts. I'd take the life sentence bet at plus anything. I think it is more likely that the odds would be -300 that he is not given the death penalty . 

Your affinity for drug suppliers is understandable, but resorting to name-calling should be beneath you. Oh well.

Yes, but I doubt you'd get this by an Eighth Amendment challenge. The text of the Constitution recognizes the legitimacy of the death penalty. Your suggested penalty seems to be going too far. The framers were not sadists.
