Eye On Boise

A difficult day that, on balance, makes sense

Here’s a link to my full story at spokesmanreview.com on Thursday’s developments in the Joseph Duncan sentencing trial, and here’s my sidebar on what happens next in the case. It was a difficult and distressing day in court, but one that, on balance, makes sense in the context of this horrific crime, for which the government is seeking the death penalty. In our system, the death penalty is not handed down lightly. We’re seeing what happens when it’s in play; the stakes are as high as they get in any court proceeding. Here’s a link to my radio interview with Rebecca Mack, conducted 15 minutes after I left the courtroom after the showing of the graphic videos that Duncan made at an abandoned mountain cabin.
