He is already serving 2 life sentences. Get him to confess and have another life sentence run concurrently. Closure and no additional tax dollars.

A death penalty case will cost millions and he will likely die of natural causes at his age long before they can execute (even in DeSantis land) so it is pointless and a waste of money.
