I don't have a problem with executing someone when it's fairly applied. Cases like this one are the perfect justification for the death penalty.
Good point, and I would probably not get picked as a juror in a case like this because my emotional connection would shine through. I have a hard time separating and being rational when it comes to something that involves harming children.
