Death Sentence and rehabilitation...

I was just watching Fox News (or some news station) and they were talking about a man who was sentenced to the death penalty I forget what his name was (Tookie?? Wilson or something like that)...he has spent something like 26 years in jail, has written 9 childrens book, and was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize (dont quite understand how a man convicted of murder can be nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize though)...his lawyers are now arguing to set aside the Death Penalty sentence and just have him serve life in prison (I believe, I kinda came into the room in the middle of the conversation), because they say he has been rehabilitated and it would serve no purpose to kill him...what do yall think about this?
