One life sentence, with an option for two. Now that's a tough swallow, even after a long chew. Lord grant me the wisdom, to make it out right, just as You helped me through the long hard dark night.
Reason for writing:
Thinking about lifers and those on death row. I used to think there was no difference between one life sentence and the multiple sentences you sometimes read about, but now I'm not so sure.
I suppose it's a lot to do with the bodycount.
