True, but Zapeta shouldn't even have had the opportunity since is here illegally (2x), and he DID burn that poor woman alive. The identity of the victim shouldn't matter. Whether she was a homeless person or a PhD student is of no consequence to me. Zapeta committed one of the more horrific murders this country has seen and killed a person in about as torturous a way as possible. If he ever sees the light of day again, justice will not be served. But hey, since his crime isn't federal, at least FJB can't pardon him in advance of his trial.
