Im not for the death penelty since it a little hard do something about it if you happen to hang someone by mistake.  

Thankfully this guy is gone. I dont understand why they dont get rid of Breivik

Im against the death penalty as well in general but this case almost fits perfectly what I think should be required, it has DNA and an eyewitness, the only thing missing is a recording.
