The kid sniper, Malvo, was sentenced to life.  If you were sitting on that jury, would you have voted for life or death?

Life....death is too easy for him.

He needs to sit and stew for 50 or 60 years and reflect on what he has done.

I think it's a good verdict.  True he did things worthy of death, but it's impossible to determine how much he was actually influenced by Mohammad.

I agree.  Mohammad gets the needle, that's the important thing.

Life.

Some legal experts were concerned that Malvo might even get off. Mohammed was convicted as the "brainwasher" of the kid and the mastermind behind the whole deal. It was possible that this verdict could have given Malvo an out through an insanity  plea.

If he doesn't deserve a death sentence, who does?  They may as well eliminate the death sentence from the books in VA.  This guy enjoyed what he was doing, and he'd probably still be doing it if he hadn't been caught.

Let's hope he doesn't use his prison cell as a soapbox to preach all sorts of radical tripe, and become a cult figure.  He could end up becoming an honorary citizen of Paris.

Death.

This is one that "needed killing"; I don't buy the BS that a 17-year-old "didn't know what he was doing". The tapes of him calling in during the shootings and his statements/writings after negate that argument IMO. He's no asset to the human race and the gene pool is safely and widely diversified. Time to X out this little cockroach and give him another chance on the wheel of life. Time to use him as an example for the other low-life cockroaches.

It's not over yet, apparently. There's other states with the death penalty that want a shot at him. If Louisiana gives him death and Virginia give him life which one gets him?

But if he "knew what he was doing" then Mohammed wasn't guilty of murder, maybe just as an accessory. Like I said... the prosecuters almost hung themselves with the Mohammed evidence.

You don't have to kill anyone to be guilty of murder.  Who did Charles Manson kill?

Curval: He needs to sit and stew for 50 or 60 years and reflect on what he has done.

 But would he? He will probably get an education and get out in 20-30 years.

 A human is basically a sum of his experience as far as legality is concerned. (Of course the character is important as well but we do not jail people with bad character untill they expereince commiting a crime. Plus, thecharacter changes as well.)
 Young Malvo had what, 10-13 years of concious experience?

 In 30 years that would be topped with 30 years of "righteous" experience. There will always be some liberal politician or judge who would allow him to get out - a stong, healthy man of 47.

I believe he is in w/o parole. I believe there is a sentence that makes this automatic, something like life and a day. I do not believe Manson will ever be released, nor will this one. If you are on the jury, you wonder if death would be the more humane way to go.

I agree, Life is a better choice then death.


Because he suffers none..

He would be able to suffer and go over his thoughts in prison for the rest of his life..

And who knows how much Mohammed influenced him as some of you have said.

Heh, I think the reason Manson will never be released is Charlie himself.  Can you imagine him sitting in front of a parole board?  "When I get out I'll kill all of you pigs and your children and everyone blah ahhhh!!!"

Malvo should be put down.  He's proven his worthlessness & I don't think he's worthy of our tax dollars.
