| Judge Agrees Peterson Should Die For His Crimes | |
| 2005-03-16 | |
| Judge Alfred Delucchi sentenced Scott Peterson to die by lethal injection for the murders of his wife, Laci Peterson, and unborn son. This morning, Delucchi also denied a motion from Peterson's attorneys for a new trial. The same jury that convicted Peterson of first- and second-degree murder recommended in December that Peterson be put to death. The former Modesto fertilizer salesman entered the Redwood City courtroom wearing a dark suit and shackled at the waist with handcuffs. Delucchi's denial of the motion for a new trial was expected. Much of the rationale used by Peterson's lawyer, Mark Geragos, in his motion -- two jurors should not have been dismissed, the trial should have been moved from San Mateo County, various evidence should not have been allowed -- already had been ruled on by Delucchi during the trial and deliberations.

| #9 Jame Retief - But the wussies in CA will never get around to executing him before he dies of natural causes, much less do it in a proper and fitting fashion. I live here in CA , I am aware --- And we have all the lefty coocoo movie people shedding tears for human refuse - Mike Farrell, Would He Harrelson, Ted Danson, etc etc etc |

| #8 Meanwhile in other news (didn't want to bother with posting another article), Robert "Baretta" Blake was acquitted of his wife's murder. |

| #7 I can only hope he gets wasted like Dahmer did by another inmate, because the state will never get around to it. |

| #6 Peterson's such a arrogant narcissistic POS that he'll never make it to the needle. Someone will get him, even in the isolation of death row |

| #5 Big Ed- There is a story by Allen Steele that deals with this subject. It is very good . . . can't recall the name, but a serial killer ends up going on the lecture circuit to perform his specialty . . . killing those condemned to death by his own favorite method: Strangulation, from behind, with his bare hands in front of a college-age audience. A very devout man and no threat to anyone but those he is contractually obligated to execute. We really should bring this back . . . public execution of those condemned to death. Preferably in a horrible and excruciating fashion, like being hung from a rope, to strangle slowly over the course of a day (done properly this could be like a gibbet, taking days to die of dehydration). But the wussies in CA will never get around to executing him before he dies of natural causes, much less do it in a proper and fitting fashion. His male infant son died a horrible death by slow asphyxiation (once them mother was dead he died of asphyxiation) and so Mr. Peterson should suffer the same. |

| #3 What is it with these guys (Hacking, also) who decide to change their life and kill their wife? I had an uncle in Akron, Ohio who told my aunt that he was going out for a loaf of bread and never went back. He turned up in California, remarried, and lived another 40 happy years. As I grew up and got to know my aunt (father's sister) I realized what a b*tch she was and why my father did not care to be around her. And Amber Frey is on ALL the talk shows now... |

| #2 Hey, Scott - bet a divorce and child support are looking a lot cheaper now, aren't they? Worthless loser. |

| #1 Watching him be put do death in California will be something to watch for in my "retirement years". Blogging will be comparable to communicating by telegraph machine by the time he finally feels the needle. |
