I'm sure you've all heard about it by now, but just in case, the jury has concluded Scott Peterson should be put to death by lethal injection. The judge could still lighten the sentence at the official sentencing in February, but I doubt he will.

Not that it matters - I'll give 2:1 odds he dies in jail long before his execution day.

REDWOOD CITY ? A jury decided Monday that Scott Peterson should be put to death for murdering his eight-months pregnant wife Laci, whose Christmas Eve disappearance two years ago formed the basis for a legal drama that has captivated the nation ever since.

The jury returned its verdict on the third day of deliberations and after seven days of tearful testimony in the penalty phase of the trial. The jury had two options in deciding the 32-year-old fertilizer salesman's fate: life in prison without parole or death by injection.

The only reason this has gotten more media attention than any typical murder is that everyone involved is pretty good lookin' and Peterson was extra s**tty by organizing all the search efforts, calling media attention to it with his actions and wasting a lot of valuable time and money from a lot of people.

The only good news is that for everything he wasted, the murderer was in fact apprehended, it just seemed so unlikely it would be him until all the pieces started falling into place.

Is that it? I didn't check the news yet.

Well, there it is: http://www.cnn.com/2005/LAW/03/16/peterson.case/index.html

He won't be executed. It'll be way too long before his time comes. But it's the thought that counts...

Yeah - honestly, it probably would have been cheaper to just let him get life in prison.
