What does that mean?  Life without Parole?  Seriously, I don't know.

There are many elements: wind, fire, water
But none quite like the element of surprise

Apologies @Bird mama  I should not have taken knowledge of the acronym for granted.  Yes WOP means without possibility of parole.

I dunno, clearly he is mentally ill and has been for quite some time.  The bigger question is whether the jury 'cares'.......


I guess the verdict means some on the jury care.

Yes, I do believe they believe he suffers from some very serious mental issues, he's not going anywhere so I think the penalty is sufficient.

I was surprised that the verdict ended up life in prison.  With all that carnage and pain, I think he deserved the death penalty.  I hope that this jury decision brings closure to the families of those that were hurt or killed.

Unlikely, he will not be roaming around in GenPop.
