The man who admitted to murdering 17 people in a high school in Florida should have been sentenced to death, the state’s governor said on Oct. 13.
“I think that if you have a death penalty at all, that is a case where you’re massacring those students with premeditation and utter disregard for basic humanity, that you deserve the death penalty,” Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, told reporters at an unrelated press conference in Cape Coral.
