> If someone kills a police officer the death penalty is a possibility, if murder is one of the charges.


Now you're changing what you said. And I quote "A person who accidentally shoots a police officer could be put to death. "

Eric was simply pointing out that if it's an accident, you're not going to get the death penalty.

If someone sees a police officer, pulls out a gun, and starts to shoot, thereby knowingly killing that officer, yes, he CAN and SHOULD get the death penalty.

Ti'spoken with the wisdom of someone who's grandfather was killed in the line of duty, while his wife was a few blocks away and HEARD the shots that killed her husband.'cia
