Baltimore's very own "Public Enemy No. 1" has been sentenced to life plus 240 years for a double murder ("Killer gets life plus 240 years, flips off top prosecutor," March 24).
As a result, 27-year-old Darryl Anderson, who has "a long rap sheet," will likely spend the next 50 years or so living off the Maryland taxpayers who were so inclined to ban the state's death penalty in 2013.
This creep is the poster boy for the death penalty: In the words of Assistant Baltimore City State's Attorney Angela Diehl, "It is apparent from his 10-year history [in the state prison system] it has done nothing to rehabilitate Mr. Anderson."
To all those who were so overjoyed to see capital punishment repealed in our state, just think about all the Darryl Andersons you are supporting. Maybe our new governor can reintroduce a bill to repeal the death penalty ban. One can only hope.
