For the people who do not like the death sentence, well I am pleased you can sleep at night

A Connecticut man charged with killing his 7-month-old baby by throwing him off a bridge testified Thursday that he dropped the boy and did not intend to harm him.
Moreno testified that he wanted to hurt the boy's mother and that he planned to kill himself. He said he has suffered from depression and suicidal thoughts for years.

YES another $100,000 per year to allow this low life to live

No one derserves to die at the hand of another. But it wouldn't cost so much if there were better mental health services for people BEFORE they go crazy.

Naoradix - many times mental health issues are used by the defence just as an excuse, with this one we do not know

@nedkelly: there's no law in the USA that says a mentally ill person has to take the prescribed medication...they won't do anything with them until someone calls the police and they determine that they could be a threat to someone or their self and then they'll take them in for an evaluation. A lot of times they've had treatment and refused to take care of themselves and this is what results.
