But as I said in another thread I suspect they thought it easer to shoot him, rather than have him in prioson and have huge security problems. Plus if found guilty if they excicute he becomes a marter or keep him alive the 'hang um high' americans will want death, while other countries such as UK may want him kept alive.

However shooting his wife may be an errer.
