Why is it that the particulars of Gray's multiple murders are left out of the article?  Who did he murder?  How did he murder them?  What were their ages?  What other acts of violence, abuse and or torture were inflicted upon the victims?  Did Gray have a criminal record prior to the murders?  Had he been incarcerated previously?
Leave it to NCR to publish such a one-sided article.  Justice demands that the punishment fit the crime.  If he's guilty of murder, the only just punishment is his execution.
