Suspects in killing of PC World editor could face death penalty
Rex Farrance was a tech editor and a gentleman I had some dealings with as a high tech publicist. Among a sea of brusque replies and curt rejections, he took the time to actually listen to me, hear what I was trying to offer him and gave it real thought. That he was interested and wanted to meet but we had a scheduling problem is irrelevant. Unlike the majority of editors I've spoken to and worked with, I didn't mind giving him a call.
He definitely did not deserve to die in such a cold and callous manner. He was not a drug dealer, he was a father allowing his medical marijuana prescription holding son to grow pot at his house. An activity that is legal under California law, both the possession and cultivation, regardless of your personal beliefs on the utility of marijuana for medicinal use.
And the three men who murdered him for weed and a safe full of guns now face the death penalty for the extenuating circumstances of the crimes they committed. These were bad people who targeted, invaded, assaulted, robbed and murdered a good and decent man. And all because his son happened to be talking about the garden without regard for who might overhear him and that's a pretty hefty cross to bear no matter what happens to the criminals.
I'm glad that it appears that justice will be served. I'd be gladder if justice didn't have to be served. But that isn't going to happen anytime soon.

The Juice Isn't Loose
O.J. Simpson accused in Las Vegas robbery over sports memorabilia
Boy, talk about living inside a bubble. How could this double murdering moron not know that his every move was going to be scrutinized and that committing (allegedly) a strong arm robbery wouldn't come back to bite him in his double murdering ass?
And then we find out that one of his own goons taped the incident and we might as well skip to the sentencing phase.
OJ now faces up to 30 years in prison for his actions and I'd imagine that a judge would be hard pressed to not bring the heaviest smackdown he could on him. Call it karmic backlash, call it justice, call it whatever you want but it appears that OJ is going to prison.
And that's fine by me and, very likely, the majority of this country that was outraged when he was found not guilty that bloody double murder of his ex-wife and Ron Goldman.

Scumbags Execute 7 Month Old Baby
This is beyond belief, not only at the incredible cruelty but the inhumanity of murdering an innocent child for absolutely no reason at all.
Suspects shoot father, murder infant son execution-style
Whatever the father does or did, his child did not, in any way shape or form, deserve to be murdered so callously.
And the two scumbags who did it? They just bought themselves a one way ticket to hell via lethal injection. And I really can't think of any two bastards who deserve it more.
