I’m finding the variety of reports about Malvo rather interesting. The Jamaica Gleaner reports the story as The Tragedy of Lee Boyd Malvo, and CBS points out that his life sentence is a holiday gift in their story Merry Christmas, Lee Boyd Malvo. The jury was apparently split on the sentencing phase, but analysis from the Washington Post claims age was the deciding factor that saved Malvo’s life.

How do I feel? I’m fine with it. I’m not sure what my opinion is on the death penalty. I think if any state would have handed it down, Virginia would have, although the Associated Press has a story that suggests Alabama may also get to try the snipers, and that it also has a strong death penalty law.
