Khmer Rouge executioner found guilty, but Cambodians say sentence too light - CSMonitor.com

What's that, about 10 hours in jail per murder?

I suspect the evidence presented was limited and that's why the sentence seems so light. Maybe he actually got a fair trial. A show trial could have produced a much longer sentence.

Maybe when his sentence is finished he'll request a few more years to avoid a little street justice/vengeful mob, or bad karma.

Hanging's too good for him, but I'd have hanged him.

He'll be 86 when he's released, so hopefully he won't make it until then. He should spend his last day on earth in a prison, just like his victims.

And I'm surprised that Cambodia doesn't have the death penalty.

I'm guessing they've had enough of state sanctioned killing. Like most of the world (except us).

I suspect there was great abuse of the "death penalty" during the Khmer Rouge period and the people said "enough".
