Please resist the urge to make “Hassan, CHOP!” comments.
Drew, thanks to our wonderful NYS Assembly, we in NYS have no death penalty. First-degree murder is only applicable in the murder of a LEO, IIRC.
This guy should have his head sawed off. An eye for an eye. It’s not a very Christian thing to espouse, but if it stops the behaviour, then it’s a good thing.
My first thought - Did The One (tm) have that plane flown into the house - to deflect this story off any front page?!?
Second:
On the first part (i.e. ‘domestic’ violence) - great book out there ‘Next Time She’ll Be Dead’ - points out just how pathetic the LEOs are about violence against women - standing over the body of a woman shot to death in a women’s shelter the one cop said - ‘She should have just left him.’ (And he probably voted for The One (tm)). On the second point - I think our fiberal moonbats need to look to Japan (isn’t it?!?) strictist gun laws in the World, highest crime/murder rate (or some such similar corollary). They need to come out of the ‘touchy, feely’ vapid stupidity and get a clue - crime/violence is not about the ‘weapon’ used - it is about the person who will commit it - no matter what laws there are.She already had a restraining order/order of protection out on him. Which, thanks to NJ Senator Lautenberg, takes away any firearms he might have had. Didn’t seem to do much good, did it? If you really want to kill someone, you will. You don’t need a gun. A rock will work. So will a knife.
Thanks to The One (tm) being cheated into Office - I expect these kind of stories will be on the rise in the next few years.
Combine that with the southern border struggling with kidnappings by all the Mexican drug cartels and pretty damn soon America will be wallowing down in the 3rd World status of Dafur, Gaza and Afghanistan. What fun, I look so forward to all the hopencchange The One (tm) is bringing our way - they already succeeded yesterday in insuring that the majority of Americans will have a 3rd World income. Forever.
A murder can be a crime of passion. An impulse gone too far and in a moment, someone is dead. Now on the other hand, to cut off someone’s head.... Seems to be popular in one particular culture. Hmmmmm.
Looks like Hassan made our point about the Religion of Peace(TM) better than anyone could.....
NYS has Murder in the 2nd Degree (PL 125.25), Aggravated Murder (PL 125.26) and Murder in the 1st Degree (PL 125.27). When the NYS Supremes threw out the death panalty they amended the law to make sure that anyone convicted of Murder Uno would never leave prison. Killing them is another way of making sure they never leave prison but our judges don;t have the stones for that.
We just had two murder trials prosecuted by my office, one for Murder 2 and the other for Murder 1.
The woman convicted of Murder Uno poisoned her husband with antifreeze in 2005 (she also killed her first husband in 2000 the same way) and then tried to pin it on her 17 yr old daughter by also poisoning her after writting a fake suicide note confessing to killing her father (Husband Uno). This monster failed and just made the poor kid incredibly sick.
The guy convicted of Murder Deuce killed a woman while doing odd jobs for her around her house; she was trying to “be kind” to a poor homeless man.
Murder 1st reads:
A person is guilty of murder in the first degree when:
1. With intent to cause the death of another person, he causes the
death of such person or of a third person; and

34 of section 1.20 of the criminal procedure law who was at the time of
the killing engaged in the course of performing his official duties, and
the defendant knew or reasonably should have known that the intended
victim was a police officer; or
(ii) the intended victim was a peace officer as defined in paragraph a
of subdivision twenty-one, subdivision twenty-three, twenty-four or
sixty-two (employees of the division for youth) of section 2.10 of the

which was natural life, or at the time of the commission of the killing,
the defendant had escaped from such confinement or custody while serving
such a sentence and had not yet been returned to such confinement or
custody; or
(v) the intended victim was a witness to a crime committed on a prior
occasion and the death was caused for the purpose of preventing the
intended victim`s testimony in any criminal action or proceeding whether
or not such action or proceeding had been commenced, or the intended
victim had previously testified in a criminal action or proceeding and
the killing was committed for the purpose of exacting retribution for
such prior testimony, or the intended victim was an immediate family
member of a witness to a crime committed on a prior occasion and the

(vi) the defendant committed the killing or procured commission of the

aggravated sexual abuse in the first degree or escape in the first
degree, or in the course of and furtherance of immediate flight after
committing or attempting to commit any such crime or in the course of
and furtherance of immediate flight after attempting to commit the crime
of murder in the second degree; provided however, the victim is not a
participant in one of the aforementioned crimes and, provided further
that, unless the defendant`s criminal liability under this subparagraph
is based upon the defendant having commanded another person to cause the

criminal liability is based upon the conduct of another pursuant to
section 20.00 of this chapter; or

“Obviously, this is the worst form of domestic violence possible,” Erie County District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III said today.
It could have been worse. He could have gnawed her head off.
Any so called religion that condones this should be called a cult as in charles manson, except he is marginally better than a muslim. Islam must be the depths of human depravity.
