Joker spared due to one juror

The jury deciding whether Aurora movie theater shooter James Holmes should be sentenced to death ended deliberations after it became apparent one juror would not budge from her opposition to a death sentence, a juror told reporters. Because the jury could not reach a unanimous decision, Holmes will be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for opening fire during a screening of "The Dark Knight Rises" on July 20, 2012, killing 12 people and wounding 70 others. "We ended our deliberations when one absolutely would not move," the juror, who only identified herself as "juror 17," told reporters after the verdict. Whoever the naysayer is, I hope you're proud of yourself. Because of your decision to be a hero, that sicko gets to live while 12 of his victims don't. The only suitable form of justice in such a case is the chair.
