Ask any experienced law enforcement officer and they will likely tell you that eye witnesses are notoriously unreliable in the case of crimes committed by strangers.
If the perpetrator was known to all of the witnesses or was apprehended during the commission of the crime and there were several eye witnesses then that would be irrefutable.
But eye witnesses IDing a stranger after the fact? Not going to convince me to give someone the death penalty. Right now America spends $700 billion every year on foreign oil. That's our money going overseas when it could be staying here. We have to stop this.
That's why I support the Pickens Plan. Check out the website at www.pickensplan.com. If you like what you see, please join me as a Pickens Plan supporter. |
