    Is your grip on the capitalist class in your country so loose that you can't risk sending these people to a penal colony?

        highest punishment permissible by law

        The 2 year reprieve means he has a pretty good chance it turns into a life sentence, that is if he cooperates with the authorities and doesn't commit any further crimes.

          Killing people is almost always gratuitous for a fairly-developed country that isn't at war. They should probably be killing fewer people, especially among segments of society more vulnerable than billionaires.

              That's better than the alternative, but they should still not be killing people. There just isn't a good reason for them to.
