At least he's not going Scott free

As one of the jurors who sentenced Scott Peterson to death said, there are no winners in a case like this.

This morning, when I heard on the news that the jurors had asked to view the photos of Laci and Connor's remains, I knew what the verdict in the penalty phase would be. I can't imagine how difficult it would be, even in the face of such gruesome, graphic images, to order that someone be put to death. But after six months of trial, I'm sure each of the twelve people given that responsibility discharged it to the best of their ability. I wouldn't be surprised if they endure a sleepless night or two over the next weeks. Maybe months.

But now, it's over. Move along, America. Nothing more to see here.
