As for the 1st question....what does it matter? All that stuff was litigated and introduced during trial and considered during sentencing.
What is the point of any sentence given in this country when in reality it will very very rarely be what ends up happening? Particularly when it is in regards to the taking of innocent lives.
Again...extremely broken system and one that allows so many out who end up re-offending. ridiculous honestly and i am far from a guy who pumps the crime and punishment signal.
Whatever it is we have right now simply is not working and very few have the balls or are willing to risk political capital to tackle it apparently.

The first question matters because it's needed to answer the second question.
The second question is not what you would have done as a parole board, but what you would have done as the offender in the situation in question.
