    The decision was reached Wednesday in the penalty phase of Ronell Wilson’s trial.

    Wilson was charged with shooting the victims during a botched illegal gun sting.

    A jury convicted him in 2006, then sentenced him to death in early 2007. But an appeals court overturned the sentence.

    Prosecutors opted to seek the death penalty from a new jury.

    Prosecutors argued that Wilson was a cold-blooded killer who deserved death. His lawyers portrayed him as the product of a troubled background.

    I wonder how long it will take some anti-justice judge to overturn this sentence, too.

    I thought there was no death penalty in New York. (In 2008, the State Senate voted to restore it for the murder of law enforcement officers, but the State Assembly did not support that vote.) Can anyone explain this?

    Maybe Sharpton will or will not start one of his days of rage protests.

    But remember that Wilson’s two victims were also African-American.

    If I was this murderer I would use the ‘stand your ground’ defense, suggesting that he felt his life was being threatened by the poliice officers. You never know it could work

    I vividly remember back in Feb 2010 on this very forum the outrage presented because Martin Grossman was convicted & executed for MURDERING in COLD BLOOD Officer Margaret Parks. The fury that was raised of how he was being murdered because he was a Jew. Now I read the very same people wanting to execute the schvartze for doing the very same crime. Why do we have a double standard? Just to refresh your memories here is a representative post from VIN Feb 2010.

    “This is just to remind us that we are in galus! He was killed because he was a jew! No other reason! OJ simpson killed his wife or gf and walked away scott free! Why cudn’t they plead insanity?? Nebach nebach! Bd”e, that all we can say, we cannot understand the ways of hashem, but we have to know that everything hashem does is for the good even though we may not always see it, and everything is part of his master plan! Hashem should take revenge on his blood! And may we only share good news!!!”

    Cop killers deserve the death penalty no matter who or what they are, male, female, Jew or Goy, black, white brown or purple with poka dots. Yidden please get you priorities in order. Dont be so IGNORANT

    Listen, here is my opinion on this. I think if someone murders he should get the same penalty whether he kills a cop or a homeless wino. Why? Because as much as we are to respect police, the police officer’s blood is not redder than the wino’s.
