WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (Reuters) North Carolina prosecutors will seek the death penalty against a man who police say kept detailed notes on parking at his condominium complex before gunning down three young Muslims in a neighboring unit, according to documents released on Monday.

Craig Hicks, 46, is charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the Feb. 10 shooting deaths of a newlywed couple and the wife’s sister about two miles from the University of North Carolina campus in Chapel Hill.

1. I think it would be better is Craig Hicks got a life term

so that he could spend the next 20 to 30 years meditating on what he did seeking forgiveness from the families of his victims, all of us and from God before he dies.

2. Agreed! The death penalty is wrong.
