Fairfax Co Commonwealth Attorney Horan could get not a death penalty guilty verdict out of the liberated Fairfax County jury due to the fact Virginia had no death penalty as state Democrats held up the process of renewing the death penalty in Virginia after the US Supreme Court ended death in 1972 as a penalty and required all states to pass new laws on how death sentences could be sought that the high court required
SO the mass killer was convicted by a Fairfax Co jury and sent to state prison on four life terms plus 20 years with possibility of parole literally skating free for four murders of the most heinous sort that demanded his life be put to an end in the Virginia state electric chair as soon as humanly possible to do so
One of the victims was a woman
