GUEST,Janice now in western NY State | BS: Matthew Shepard (1976-1998) (77* d) | RE: BS: Matthew Shepard | 14 Feb 07 |
I believe the culprits were convicted of Murder One and faced the death penalty, but their lawyers had the either the wisdom or the audacity to contact the victim's parents and get them to say their son opposed the death penalty. Based upon that, the jury came back with a recommendation of life without parole. |
