	Centerfield: Scott Peterson Sentenced To Death
		In the Peterson case, to the limited extent I'm familiar with its facts, the elements both of the capital murder statute and the death sentence were found.
		Apparently, the main factor indicating premeditation was that Scott Peterson bought a boat a couple of weeks before the crime, the very boat from which he may have dumped the body.
		Peterson would be best served with life in prison; I dont buy into the arguments that "why should we have to pay for him" or "he will live better than us." The second is ludacris.
