This could go on endlessly. If it were up to me, James Holmes would be executed for his actions. I have no interest in his mental state. We all have problems, but not all of us slaughter innocent people when we feel confused. That aside, I will admit your arguments have some merit. Nevertheless, I still personally maintain that in cases such as that of Mr. Holmes where the killer is unquestionably guilty, the death penalty is both warranted and justified. Execute him.
