Comments
what will change with this bill ? how much would it cost ,
According to the Fiscal Impact Statement, the Virginia Criminal Sentencing Commission believes that it won't cost anything...at least over the next six years, the window of time used for these assessments:
the only thing about this law...all death penalty cases, is that it is a known fact that Prosecuting Attorneys like to lie/withhold and twist things around to their advantage....like winning a case is some kind of "game" to them! I don't think anyone stands the chance of a fair and truthful trial these days so therefore adding this new law just increases the chances of executing more innocent people!
