BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Bryan Kohberger has agreed to plead guilty to murdering four University of Idaho students as part of a deal to avoid the death penalty, an attorney for one victim’s family said Monday.

I always wonder if he really did it, OR did he just plea out because of the death penalty?
As a gun-owning pro-life pro-choice little L libertarian, I’m against the death penalty for moral and irreversible grounds. Moral because the Gooferment shouldn’t be able to do anything I can’t do since Gooferment is a fiction and represents a collection of individuals. Irreverable since mistakes happen and there is no way to un-die someone.
We have the saying that “better a hundred guilty go free that one innocent be imprisioned”. Plea bargains, regardless of the guilt or innocence, seems to make a mockery of our sense of “justice”. Any more than poor “defendants” get Legal Aid and rich “defendants” get the best money can buy. Also, even a rich “defendant” can be impoverished when faced with a Gooferment bureaucrat with unlimited funds to convict them.
Finally, how fair is our “justice system” when some civil and criminal cases “cost” a staggering amount of attention, time, and money? A Pyrrhic victory is a win that comes at such a significant cost to the victor that it is almost tantamount to defeat. One has to wonder.
