The decision -- which came just over two years after the April 15, 2013, bombing that killed three people and wounded more than 260 -- brought relief and grim satisfaction to many in Boston.

"We can breathe again," said Karen Brassard, who suffered shrapnel wounds on her legs.

The death sentence sets the stage for what could be the nation's first execution of a terrorist in the post-9/11 era, though the case is likely to go through years of appeals.

This is where our judicial system sucks.An individual truly deserving of death by overwhelming evidence,no remorse and yet will probably be on death row for how many years?? A case,where in my opinion,should get NO APPEALS.....He was found guilty plain and simple.In instances like this the individual should get a maximum 30 days to get whatever financials/farewells he wishes to complete ....and then day 31..end of life. People have to remember....he's not only a burden to the victims/victims families sentenced to life or on death row for years..but every taxpayer that has to support this scum while his demise awaits him.

^Fully agree.

We are 100% sure it was him, we know what he did, and his crimes DEFINITELY fit the punishment.

Just kill him already....there's NO need to prolong this any longer.

Other than the financial burden on the system with these (I think mandatory) appeals. I have no problem stringing him along for a couple years. It's gotta be a terrible feeling living each day, knowing any one of them will be your last.


Edit: I'd even recommend strapping him down on the gurney a few random times as trial runs.

LOL I was going to say the same thing.

Assuming this is not a false flag because we know that the United States has never participated in one of those and this guy really did do this I would be ok with torturing him as well as he awaits his demise. Might as well have some fun with him.
