Letter to the editor: Why no sanctity of life on death penalty?

Tribune-Review | Wednesday, July 20, 2022 9:00 a.m.

As the Rowe v. Wade decision divides the country over the sanctity of life, it makes me wonder what the Supreme Court would do to overturn the death penalty in the United States.

It appears that a number of the same folks who are anti-abortion are pro-death penalty. Maybe the death penalty should be looked at by the Supreme Court, but as we know, they’ll just turn it over to the states.

Those who want the “sanctity of life” in only the directions that please them should consider that this applies to more than just abortion, or does it? Just saying.
