The Worst Crime

Like the title says, I'm not a supporter. That being said, that may have been the "best" choice for Johnny Johnson. On death row he is isolated, sure. But in a life sentence he may have been put into general population. Not a good place for people who've done what Johnny did! He would have most likely been beaten and/or tortured. I think the death penalty probably gave him a more peaceful life than he would have had otherwise. In fact, probably a longer life!

I think back to Jeffrey Dahmer. He was supposed to be protected in prison. Suddenly the guard leaves him alone for a few minutes and inmates come in and beat him to death. Johnny might have met a similar fate.
