In Texas Cap Murder can be punished by life of DP. As far as I know nothing has been said about what they are going to do.
Since I'm SO close to the case I keep going back and forth on whether or not I think she should get life or the DP.
At this point I just want a conviction, that'll come eventually.
Prior to coming to WS, I was for the DP. After years here, I'm not in the camp of DP any longer. And one of the reasons was due to understanding of many of the families and their wishes which were anti-DP. They have many reasons. As a negotiation tool for pleas, it may be one reason to have continued? I don't know the answer fully melded in my own mind.
Your being on the fence and being so close.. I have understood that AG's and prosecutors often get input on their decisions from families as to the track they take. My heart breaks that you are one who is so close to this case as it is so so so abhorrent, and one of the "worst of the worst" if there ever was one.
