Every convicted murderer should be executed in a manner similar to how they killed their victims. Firing squad for murder with a gun, etc. In this case, since blunt force trauma was used on the victim, execution could be by stoning.
I wonder how much of our hard earned tax dollars will be spent prosecuting, and housing the three thugs?
Culture of violence
Hopefully they all, especially Square, don’t get away with it. Square has already gotten away with murder once.
If guilty – expedited death penalty for all 3 – so many callous, despicable murderous people – usually take human life over money/drugs. A world gone mad…
