TOO BAD MICHIGAN DOESNT HAVE THE DEATH PENALITY.

Here in Belgium - Europe, life in prison can mean only 5 years, which was proven 2 days ago by leaving out of prison (on parol and with a electronic bracelet) the murderer of one of our police-officers who was killed in 2001 in a highway poursui! The murderer ( a violent home- and carjacker) fired with an Ak-47 on my fellow police-officers.

Dear Robert, may you rest in peace and may GOD give the strength to your family to take this loss! Greetings from Belgium, Brussels-PD - Europe

here in the uk life in prison can mean as little as 6 years.

That's sad. Life in prison should mean just that, life in prison.

How horrible that the Kozminski's had to go through this in the first place, but they had to go through the trial, and the end result in having the prosecutor doing his job and having the guilty pay with life in prison. End of story? Hardly! The Kozminski's will have to deal with their loss day in day out, year after year. God is close to the broken hearted. The Holy Spirit is there to comfort. I pay the Kozminski's will find their hearts mending. I pray for comfort in the face of pain.
