'Disgusted with those jurors': Parents of Parkland shooting victim

'Disgusted with those jurors': Parents of Parkland shooting victim



Moments after the jury voted against the death penalty for Parkland shooter Nikolas Cruz, the parents of 14-year-old victim Alyssa Alhadeff angrily spoke out against the decision.

“I’m disgusted with those jurors, I’m disgusted with the system, which you could allow 17 dead and 17 others shot and never get the death penalty. What do we’ve got the death penalty for? What’s the purpose of it? You set a precedent today,” Dr. Ilan Alhadeff said. “I pray that animal suffers daily of his life in jail – and that he must have a brief life.”

    9:00 "remember the victims not the shooter"
    The whole reason the parkland shooter did what they did, was because they wanted fame and attention (seeking fame through sin and cruelty)!
    Do NOT give them what they want, do NOT remember their name, do NOT remember their face, and do NOT hand over their victory.
    Instead remember Alyssa, Scott, Martin, Nicholas, Aaron, Jaime, Chris, Luke, Cara, Gina, Joaquin, Alaina, Meadow, Helena, Alex, Peter, and carmen!
    They are the real famous people from this event, remember them!

    It's sad because the police today become the Criminals when they shoot these scums! They aren't allowed to do their jobs. Thanks to the Democrats in Washington!

    The parents should not be mad. Life is jail is muchhhhhhhh horrible than an injection to end a life. Other jail mates will "take good care" of him, thoroughly. He doesn't look muscular though. His jail mates will help him do "some exercise."

    No need to insult animals. Unfortunately, nothing will change in a society where boys are raised to suck it up and be a man. It’s dismissive, doesn’t foster empathy, self esteem, respect, nor problem solving skills. Can’t cry, can’t talk about it, so how does one ever find resolve for everyday issues, let alone life? Not being in control of one’s life and emotions is a recipe for tragedy. There’s a reason why school shooters, serial killers, murderers, perpetrators of sexual assaults, excessive force, domestic violence and crime are mostly male. And women being the primary care givers of children can change the world if we really wanted to do better.

    I remember watching a news piece some time ago about the chemicals used for death row inmates. The problem is the pharmaceutical companies are ceasing sales to states that do have the death penalty. While there are other ways you can administer the death penalty, death comes sooner than exhausting your appeals.

    Death penalty is stupid… it never happens swiftly. They just sit there anyway.

    The pain in their eyes, the agony in their voices, it’s beyond heartbreaking ????. I honestly can’t believe the one juror who—I can’t. My prayers go out to the family.

    Folks, there is a code of ethics believe it or not in prison…child killers don’t last very long…he won’t last more than a year, and during that year it will be hell in earth for him

    Nickolas Cruz will suffer far greater and longer in prison than what he would endure from the death penalty.

    Even if he got the death penalty it would take him decades before he was executed.

    He’s not an animal, he’s a savage. Animals do not kill for sport or no reason. They only kill to survive. Armed security, metal detectors and a buzzer for the only one way in and out of the building. It’s not brain surgery. It’s just lazy clueless morons running this circus.

  • Cami's Closet

    We the people have to spend our hard earned money (taxes) to feed that savage and keep him alive. Appalling. The system is a circus. There is no purpose for the death penalty. It’s NOT ok but this entire administration is a circus.

    Some people say life in prison is worse. There is this lady Pam Smart that got life in prison without parole for being the mastermind behind her husbands murder. She has now been in prison for 31 years and she says she wishes she got the death penalty because even that has an end.

    If guns were removed from the equation, you'd still have your daughter, and you know who would still be playing Fortnite instead of reloading for real.

    I would go on national television and tell the current prison inmates I’d pay them 10k each for every time they ripped his anus apart.

    The father is 1000% right just because you have a mental illness dosen't give you an excuse to go on a killing spree. That monster knew exactly what he was doing. Lots of people have mental illnesses and bad childhoods but don't turn into mass murderers.
