I can't believe that the golden state killer recieves no death penalty but if he was black he would get strangled on the way to court. 😑
However, being a killer and all, he remained unmoved.
It's a shame that he will never live long enough to serve the sentence that will be passed down....
I wish your report would have mentioned the work by Patton's wife and her colleagues to track down this man after the police had given up on locating him.
