At one point I considered myself an opponent of capital punishment.

But I'm a bit disappointed that the death penalty for these two was taken off the table by the court.

In fact, I wouldn't mind seeing capital punishment applied to a wider range of crimes, such as starting a war that killed thousands of Americans and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis. Or maybe knowingly bombing a medical facility operated by an international humanitarian foundation.
