[Vision2020] Duncan plea deal

[whayman at adelphia.net]

Hello all,

I would agree with anyone that Duncan tests the limits much more than even more than Malvo in the DC area. What Duncan apparently did lies outside the human scope of sympathy. But even within this absolutely and disgustingly twisted psychopathic scenario, I still cannot advocate a penalty of death for anyone. Duncan included.

Killing, as we all know, brings back no one. The argument of the death penalty as resolution and closure I find closer to vengeance than justice.

Please don't take me wrong; I don't think rehab etc. is the issue in this case. I do hope that the rest of his life is spent anonymously and ignobly incarcerated.
