Carol Thomas was murdered for selling rock salt that was supposed to be meth

Reader "Jackie" responds to Carol Thomas Kidnapped, Murdered in Missouri. She says James Reardon has two kids, and they need a father:

"First off, She got herself into it. She was the one who sold them the rock salt. She should have knew from the start that was not the right thing to do. No, i do not think that she should have been killed. But, since i know James Reardon(White Boy) personally, i do not agree with him getting the death penalty or life.

"I think that all 3 of them should get the same amount of time though. They were all involved, they all knew what was going to happen & never chose to leave. White boy has kids and they deserve to have a father in their life. Even if it consist of just seeing him in prison. I know these kids, his little girl is only 2 and he also has a son that is younger than a year. They deserves to remember their father. And im sure that he regrets what he did."

What in the hell is wrong with people?
Anonymous...I was being facetious, sarcastic.....when I wrote "your intelligence blows me away."
I used to smoke $500 worth of crack in a few hours, but it never occurred to me to kill someone if the rock was bad. That's the thing when you are doing drugs and running with a bad crowd, trying to get drugs and getting burned just becomes part and parcel of the lifestyle. Guaranteed it happens to everyone who is involved in that lifestyle no matter how big or bad they are. As you get deeper and deeper into addiction, you become more and more desperate and in turn deal with more and more desperate people. It just becomes an insidious, self destructive downward spiral that always ends in tragedy.
Ctrivison86 said: "Your intelligence really blows me away" I think what you meant to say was lack of intelligence.
So let me get this right, Jackie. Dad is a murderous, drug using loser and you are concerned his kid will have a daddy? Are you for real? He must be a great role model; exactly the type of father influence a child needs. You must be of great character, too to have such a friend ax this loser. Go buy some brain cells and get some common sense! Your intelligence really blows me away!
Jackie, it's time to put down the rock salt pipe, hon. Fortunately, Reardon's kids are so young, they're unlikely to remember their POS of a father.
Let me fix that first sentence: "First off, he got himself into it. He was the one who murdered her. He should have knew from the start that was not the right thing to do."
"I know him, so don't execute him." Jackie is the new dumbest person alive. Your problem isn't with the death penalty, but that you're friends with a murderer and so he shouldn't be executed. Wow. Just...wow.
Seriously Jackie, Carol may have gotten herself into this but did she really deserve to die? I think all involved should get the same punishment because they were all involved, but to be lenient on this guy because he has kids? That's laughable at best. This young lady had family too. What do they get out of this? They never get to see her again, that's for sure. Maybe these kids of James would be better off with a different father figure? You know, one that wouldn't callously take the life of another person perhaps? I mean, this is setting a really good example for those kids right? "Hey kids, if someone rips you off on a dope deal, just killem, nobody cares!" Yeah, that is definitely something I would want to teach my kids!Carol may have "gotten herself into this", but she did not deserve to die. These people that have "gotten themselves" into this by killing her should receive the maximum punishment available, so that they know their behaviour was not acceptable. After all, as you said, they could have walked away at any time, but ALL chose to participate.
Really? I always wonder if someone is going to listen to these idiots who post comments. Let's let him live and burn the girl in effigy. Sounds to me as if this Jesus freak needs to learn that the punishment needs to fit the crime and it's crybaby Jesus freaks that save jerks like this from getting the punishment they deserve.
How about this novel idea - we let the judicial system decide their fate?
