Looking to target the most severe criminals, Sen. Tom Reynolds (R-West Allis) is circulating a proposal among legislators that would apply the death penalty in cases in which someone had sexually assaulted, killed and either dismembered, disfigured or mutilated the victim. Conclusive DNA evidence tying the offender to the crime would also be necessary, the bill says.Well, maybe it is; maybe Reynolds is trying to capitalize on the Steven Avery case.
However, there's another capital punishment case in the news right now, that doesn't make state-sanctioned killing look like such a good idea . . .
