I think that he did not take into consideration all those consequences until after they happened. In fact, I think he thought he was going to get a way with it. Until the police come knocking on your door is a time when one thinks they will not get caught and its not that bad.
Most people do not commit crimes in order to hurt others. Rather it is done to gain something without realizing how much it could affect those around them. In fact, he was probably trying to get the money for his family!
I don't think death is too harsh compared to the alternative of 20 some odd years in jail and a record! Personally I would rather die, not be a burden to the system then be driving myself crazy in jail. I saw too many stupid people commit crimes in california and also how ignorant they were until after the fact.
I often thought their punishments much more severe then deserved. And many voiced to me how it was worse then death. And also how because of the stigmas they often would get out and continue to do the same thing again.
Anyway, the fact that he cannot be there for his family now will most certainly be a weight on his mind! And I don't think we need to criticise him or anyone else for making a mistake when we all make mistakes that hurt other people. I can think of alot more harsher things people do and get away with because it is under the guise of the law that is equally as destructive to those around them.
