He would not have feared the police while he was driving a stolen car with stolen property in it, if he did not think he was wrong. Therefore, I am confident in saying that Richard- when not in the throws of a brain malfunction-knows right from wrong. Richard does not use Satan as an excuse for his crimes.
Is he delusional? Is he a manic depressive? He knows right from wrong, and he usually has a conscience. The question then becomes, what do we do with him now?
Everyone would agree that Richard simply has to be removed from society, and he has been. But should we learn what we can from him or simply kill him? There is an age-old argument regarding the death penalty, whether it is right or wrong and both sides have strong points to argue. After all, their relatives did not have a choice in how nor when they were going to die, why should he? But still, let them fry the bastard. Others still would say that locking him up for life would be good enough as long as there was a guarantee that he could never be let out.
That last statement brings up a good point. It illustrates that our current system is not fool proof and violent offenders are being released all of the time.
Pro death penalty advocates claim that the death sentence serves as a deterrent to violent criminals but this has not statistically proven to be true. If they too, continued to read on in that scripture, they would discover that what God meant according to the mere men who wrote the bible was that you should offer the other cheek to be slapped as well as the first one was. Not- as they use it-in a showing of forgiveness.
The anti death penalty groups do have a statistically proven point in that innocent people are convicted and put to death. These former inmates had been wrongfully convicted because of various judicial glitches, including coerced confessions, false testimony, hidden evidence and lack of competent legal counsel. There are still many who have already been put to death whom after they were gone were found to be innocent. And still others who are innocent and continue to reside on death row; being slowly tortured by thoughts of their own execution, not to mention the injustices and humiliations of being wrongfully imprisoned in the first place.
Supporters of the death penalty could also argue that if that death penalty was to beoverthrown, and prisoners who would have been put to death are instead relegated to life in prison, that these prisoners no longer have anything to lose. They could kill a prison guard or other inmates, and continually commit murder and rape without any more severe a punishment than what they already have.
Personally speaking, I cannot state with any certainty that I am either pro death penalty, or against. It is easy for those of us unrelated to victims or assailants to speculate on how we would decide the fate of the prisoner. I cannot begin to imagine how I would feel if somebody in my family was brutally raped and murdered.
Nor could I imagine how I would feel if my brother was the perpetrator. That being the case, how could I ask another person to do it for me? This is like the pro-life advocates bombing abortion clinics, killing doctors and pregnant patients, in order to demonstrate that they are against what they see as murder. It is absurd! Since there are no easy or clear answers, I propose that a new system be devised that will ensure the safety of society, as well as bring justice to those honestly guilty of heinous crimes with closure and peace to the families of the victims.
First, a new legal system would have to be devised so that no innocent people are wrongfully convicted. It will begin with the state funding qualified legal assistance in capital punishment cases.
This will cost less to the state than actually inflicting a death sentence. Only qualified judges from each state shall hear violent crime cases, not traffic court judges, but criminal justices.
No chance of parole ever! A sentence of life in prison will be worse than the death sentence. Not all criminals can be eligible for a new program involving medical studies. It will not be based on mental competence. Currently, a plea of insanity equals a few years in a mental institution and then usually freedom. Because of this, many sane, guilty people try to plead insanity.
The new system will not allow for any release. Since by law, surgical examinations can not be performed, a new facility is not necessary. As well as regularly scheduled blood tests for determining testosterone levels. Oral evaluations with extensive questionnaires for the prisoners to answer will be formulated. The questions will have to be asked at different stages of imprisonment, with a penalty to those who refuse to answer.
The questionnaires may not work, but statistically inmates seem to comply with answering questions, whether it be to clear their conscience, or an attempt to be in favor with guards, doctors, wardens, etc. These tests will have to be performed regularly and over a long period of time for proper studies to be done.
Just as there are on-site doctors at prisons now, there will also be on-site scientists to evaluate the studies.

Los Angeles detectives followed a tip from a local woman whose father believed he had befriended the killer.
He told police about a man from El Paso, Texas, who went by Rick — a man who openly bragged about still-confidential information about the Night Stalker murders.
That trail of clues, involving a stolen bracelet, led them to a man named Armando Rodriguez, a friend to Ramirez. Rodriguez was the one who told them the Night Stalker's name was Richard Ramirez.

That morning, Ramirez walked into a liquor store in downtown Los Angeles and saw his face on the front page of the newspaper. He ran. He sprinted across the 5 Freeway, into Boyle Heights, where he unsuccessfully tried to carjack Faustino Pinon. A few blocks away, he tried to carjack Angelina De La Torre. He screamed at her, in Spanish, to give him the keys. She refused. According to local police who first responded to reports of a fight in the area, the crowd was waving and pointing at newspapers saying that the man they were detaining was the Night Stalker.
Outside the Hollenbeck police station, a crowd had gathered, hoping to get a glimpse of the man who had caused so much fear and horror in the summer of Police spoke to the press and tried to keep control of the group as Ramirez was escorted out of the station. This is Anastasia Hronas, who survived an abduction at age 6. In August of , police brought her, and other victims, to the jail to see if they would pick Ramirez out of a lineup.
He wore the number 2 on his chest. After the lineup of men read statements attributed to the Night Stalker aloud, Gil Carrillo asked the witnesses if they had any questions.
Young Anastasia raised her hand and asked, "Do I write the word two or the number 2? In July , Ramirez made his first court appearance.
He pleaded not guilty to all of the charges against him. But before he left the courtroom, Ramirez raised his hand to show a drawing of a pentagram on his palm.
