After months of spectacle in Alexandria, a federal jury finally reached a verdict today in the sentencing trial of Moussaoui, who faced the death penalty for conspiracy in connection with the September 11 attacks.

I would've liked to see death on this issue. Rather than have the taxpayer's money fund a shelter and food for this guy, death would've been more appropriate. He has confessed to the plot numerous times. I'm a religious person so I have my faith in God to punish him after death.
