Those were the reasons for the conviction. It wasn't based upon non-existent evidence on a random person.

A consideration and a question for you
1. Does the death sentence act as deterrent to potential offenders ? (And yes obviously it does at an individual)
2. If it doesn’t then what would the reintroduction of the death penalty solve? Is it justice ? Or, is it as i believe more about vengeance

Having laws, police forces, and prison doesn't act as a deterrent, so what does? Should all those be scrapped?
