Chivo, you may know that the death penalty is unconstitutional in Mexico. President Calles probably made that a present to his murderous self and his accomplices effectively shutting the door on DP after his unprecidented use of it.
Torture in the US has a pretty heavy punishment as does mayhem. I'd rather have those guys put in supermax. One hour outside the cell per day. No human contact. 6 x 9 cell. To me thats worse than death and those guys deserve it.
