Re: Should the governator grant stanley TUKI williams clemency?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Seperating your opinion on the death penalty, does a person actions in prison really have any bearing on wether the jury was competent in deciding punishment. [/ QUOTE ] Essentially no. [/ QUOTE ] If you believe prison is exclusively a means to keep criminals seperated from society and serves only to punish, then you would be right. If prisons are supposed to serve some reformative purpose then a prisoner's actions and attitudes after serving some time should be considered when determining his final disposition. |
