Now that Scott Peterson has been found guilty of murder, should he be executed? Asked at Farmer's Market

I haven't really made up my mind. They haven't proven to me that he warrants to be executed, or even accused. The evidence that I've seen doesn't really produce that conclusion.

Billie Bishop
San Jose
Yes I do. Absolutely. The American system has proved he's guilty, and he did a very bad thing to two people. If that's true, and they think it's true, then I agree.

Pattie Tanner
Romano Circle
No. I believe that we should not have the death penalty as a whole across the nation. There's no justice for either one of those parties. There's no win. It was a great loss. Scott will be facing his own consequences.

Personally I don't think he should get executed, but I think that the verdict was the right verdict. Personally, I also felt that he was guilty. Life in prison is probably a worse punishment than death.

I feel like the justice system will do what's right. Whether he's executed or not, he's going to have to live with that decision. That will be a huge punishment either way.
