I have always been a social liberal with tendencies towards fiscal moderateness. However, I've always been kind of a hard liner on Capital Punishment. So, the fact that Michael Woodbury killed three people while attempting to rob an Army surplus store in North Conway has no chance of getting him the death penalty, has me a litle peeved. See: Union Leader - Capital offenses: Seeking justice in Conway - Sunday, Jul. 8, 2007 The worse this yokel is going to get is life in prison, on the taxpayers dime, while his victims families are constantly tormented with their loved-one's killer's continued existence.
I can understand the accidental shooting death of one person during a robbery. However, in my book, if you blow away multiple unarmed people to cover up your crime, you had time to think.
NH has had death penalty back on the books since 2001. No one has received the punishment since then, and there is no one in death row waiting to receive the punishment.
In NH, it's Criminals "Live Free" and victims "Die".
