Boston Marathon

             April 15th 2012 will be a day to remember for a lot of people. Considering 9/11 was just too early for people a year or two older than me and younger than me, so this is the first taste of terrorism for us. Multiple bombs went off during the Boston Marathon killing 3, including an eight year old, injuring more than 260, 25 in which are in serious condition. An important statistic though is that it affected millions. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Tamerlan Tsarnaev were the two people held responsible for this; Tamerlan died after his brother ran him over with a car while he was surrendering. Dzhokhar is now in a hospital healing after a gunshot wound to the throat.
             Personally, I think once he heals and out of the hospital they should send him to the worst prison in Massachusetts. Giving him the death sentence would be too easy. The people who get hurt the most in prisons are child killers and child molesters, and I believe he killed eight year old Martin Richard. Plus sending him to a prison in Massachusetts would defiantly ensure his punishment.
            Why would be so good about the death penalty? If you gave him the death penalty then the families of the killed and wounded would be able to witness to see justice being served. Knowing that this person couldn’t make friends in prison, couldn’t contact his friends and family and he can experience what happened to their family member. So no matter what they decide to do with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, it will be good.
