Clifford Boggess should have been executed. He had no societal value as a person, born again Christian or an artist. The case of Clifford Boggess was that people can change and that he was a living example of this statement. The guilty party argued that Boggess was a new man, a better man. I don't believe this, Clifford Boggess was a cold blooded murderer and he would always be one. I do believe that people can change, but that doesn't apply to murderers. In my opinion there has to be something very wrong with you if you kill someone, especially if you admi that you are guilty. Clifford Boggess came from a family of criminals and he continued the tradition. It wasn't that Boggess just killed a random victim, he knew his first victim, Boggess was part of his communtiy and he knew the victim that he chose to kill. If Boggess doesn't feel the effects of the death penalty, he will still be causing stress and continuos pain in the victims family. Without Clifford Boggess the families and othhers would feel relief and be able to move on with their lives. SOme may argue that Clifford is born again Christian and an aspiring artist and that he is a better person. But this is to great of a risk, the government can't go around freeing everyone, that might have changed for the better. Clifford Boggess will always be a bad person and nothing in the world can change that. Death is the only way with this man.
