ABOLISH THE DEATH PENALTY IN LOUISIANA?

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

A jury last week in Parkland, Florida recommended Nikolas Cruz get life in prison for killing 17 people, sparing Cruz from a death sentence after his lawyers argued he had a troubled upbringing.  I read a great deal about this case and I wasn’t impressed with his “upbringing” argument.  Hey, life growing up can be tough, but one isn’t excused for such unspeakable, horrific brutality that took place.  I would have voted for the death penalty.  The fact remains that the death penalty is rarely enforced throughout the United States today. And one reason is that innocent people are being convicted. I write about the LOUISIANA situation in this weeks column.
