I believe the family, any family, should be given the immediate opportunity to end the life of the offender in the same manner the offender murdered their loved one.
Bash his head with a rock and then strangle his unconscious ass to death.
I can't believe not one person happened by in the 17-18 minutes she struggled to stay alive.
For some perspective, trained professional boxers only fight for 3 minutes with a 1 minute break to sit, rest, drink some water, have wounds attended, receive technical advice...MMA goes 5 minutes with 1 minute breaks.
