Family Member Of Child Murdered By Cruz, Said Jury Verdict Was 11-1 In Favor Of Death

15. I think Cruz is mentally screwed up

and there is no possibility of redemption. He is not going to suddenly find religion and become this great guy. I do pity the hand he was dealt because between the FAS, the early childhood trauma, and other experiences, not to mention the family that adopted him and later took him in after the death of his mother thinking this majorly mentally screwed up individual should have access to assault rifles. But I do not think he has the capacity to get better and become a decent person. He's been attacking guards in prison and continuing to be horrible. The best that can be hoped for is to lock him up where he can never hurt anyone else again.

What I fear is some loophole where by allowing monsters like him to live, lawyers continue to appeal, they try to find ways to appeal or challenge the sentence on whatever grounds down the line. Mental health. Blah blah. Rodney Reed in Texas, who raped five women besides the one he's challenging based on his death row conviction, would be an example of this.
