Premeditated executions outside DC Jewish Museum warrant ultimate punishment

The Ministry of Justice needs follow the death penalty Against Elias Rodriguez for the first degree of screened executions Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky on May 21 beyond the main Jewish Museum in Washington DC

This is a sober decision to make, but not heavy. This is exactly the case in which the death penalty is guaranteed.

Before he engages in why the accused is richly deserved the ultimate sentenceLet me clearly say that Rodriguez is assumed innocent except and until it is proven guilty in court beyond a reasonable doubt.

Shooting in the capital The Jewish Museum emphasizes the growing wave of crime against Jewish hatred

First, according to the criminal A complaint filed He killed foreign officials against the accused and committed first -degree murder. Criminal complaints are reserved places and are the first step in the process that leads to a formal indictment, which is immediate.

Undoubtedly, more evidence is collected, more accusations will be added, some can change, and the US lawyer for District Columbia (where I worked as a prosecutor) will request the accused indictment. The great jury, which is secretly meets, should only be found a probable reason to believe that the accused committed the crimes listed in the indictment.

It’s a forgotten conclusion; Will be charged in the coming days.

Second, this is not a whodunnit. Not only are there any crimes eyewitnesses, but there is also video surveillance. On top of that, after forensic evidence, DNA, fingerprints and other evidence related to the accused are developed and available and available for trial.

Any of those evidence, both direct and indirect, could be sufficient to prove a case outside a reasonable doubt.

But there are more of them: the accused at the scene told officers that he “did” and broke out “I did it for Palestine, I did it for Gaza, I am unarmed.”

Third, it was not the warmth of the passion or spontaneous act of the accused. Not only did he fly from Chicago to DC with a 9mm gun (in his proven luggage), he bought a ticket to the museum event three hours before he started, walking behind two victims as they went out, and fired them several times. While Sarah was trying to crawl, the accused shot her again. Sarah sat down for a moment. The defendant re -loaded and fired several shots into her body.

The video surveillance was recorded by this terrible scene.

Fourth, the lawmakers for the implementation of the law pulled 21 spent 9 mm of the tank from the scene, a 9 mm magazine and a 9mm pistol with a slider, indicating that he spent all his ammunition. The gun was registered with the accused at Illinois, where he bought a weapon in 2020.

The federal death penalty is authorized for several crimes, including first -degree murder. Trump’s administration wisely returned the use of a federal death penalty for appropriate cases, and was published by Pam Bondi’s Chief Lawyer revised Guidelines regarding the procedure that federal prosecutors may seek death sentence.

Although 93 law firms of the United States spreads all over the country, if any office wants to request a death penalty, they must ask to do so by submitting their justified memorandum to the main justice section in the Capital in Washington, the procedure requires reviewing before the indication, consulting the victim’s family and a thorough review of the Capital Review Committee.

Since the Supreme Court re -established a death sentence in 1976, 1,625 executions occurred, most of which took place at the state level. Today, 27 states have a death penalty. As of today, there are only three federal prisoners of death waiting for the execution (there were 40 of them, but President Biden passed the fines of 37 vicious killers just before leaving duties). Fifty -five percent of the executed is white, 34% were black and 8% were Latin American.

Death penalties have two phases: the fault and the sentence phase. If the accused jury proclaims the guilt for the misdemeanor that fulfills death, the case continues in the sentence of the sentence.

In federal cases of death penalty, the Government must prove that difficult factors surpass the mitigating factors. Aggravating factors To kill death during the commission of a second crime, a previous conviction for a violent crime that included firearms, a prior conviction of other serious criminal offenses, or a terrible, cruel or perverted way of committing a criminal offense.

The alleviation factors include damaged ability, forced, without prior criminal file and others.

Considering the fact that the defendants were hunted and executed by two helpless victims, pointed them in the back, shot them when they were on the ground, shot Sarah while trying to crawl, recharge and shoot Sarah again, the government would probably continue with the theory that the accused were awful, and declining that they were factors.

In the fictional 1996 movie “Time to Murder”, set on Deep South, a 10-year-old African-American girl named Tony was abducted, raped and beaten by two Reneck white people, who, after throwing full can of beer on her and unsuccessfully trying to hang her from the bridge. Tonya survived. The men were arrested. But before they were destined, Tony’s father, Carl Lee Hailey, shot and killed them in the courtroom, fearing that all the white South jury would release the monsters. Carl Lee was judged by their murder and was represented by Jake Brigance, played by Matthew McConaughey.

During the final jury quarrels, Jake asked the jury to close his eyes as he described the brutal rape of Tony.

“This is the story of a girl who walked home from the food store, one sunny afternoon … Suddenly the truck is racing, two men jumping and grabbing her, dragging her to a nearby field, and binding her, her clothes off her body, and now climbing, first, and second, raped, made, murdered and soaked, Outside it, they sat and used it for the target practice. “

As she describes the hanging, then as they threw her over the bridge at the bottom of the stream 30 feet below, he asks the jury: “Can you see her? He raped her, beaten, broken body, soaked in urine, soaked in their seed, soaked in blood, left to die. Can you see her see her to imagine that girl.

After a long break, he says, “Imagine being white.”

With this in mind, try this thought experiment: imagine that Sarah and Yaron were black, and the accused was a white superior who suggested them from a function at the National Museum of History and Culture of Africa American. After the police arrested him, he said, “I did it for the KKK, I did it for a confederation.”

Sarah and Yaron deserve justice. Justice is in this case the ultimate punishment.
