In criminal cases we employ the jury system, providing the jury weighs the evidence listens to the judge's advice; clearly, I cannot comment on individual cases relating to manslaughter, but I stress that beyond reasonable doubt is what we would be looking for.
Frankly, I will never be in a position to enact this, I know I shall be seen as some kind of hideous monster, some kind of illiterate nutter, or choose whatever you like. But for almost my whole life I felt the death penalty was wrong, local case, Hanratty made me feel certain the innocent could die, there have of course been others, but now we know now that there is sufficient evidence to show Hanratty was guilty in 1962 for the so called A6 murder case.
