re: #382 J.S.

He’s giving an insurance of the outcome of the case, prior to the case being held.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say there. He can’t give “assurance” of the outcome of the cases because he can’t guarantee anything about the outcome of the cases. What he does seem to be saying is that he brought the cases and will be seeking the death penalty because he’s confident of the outcome based on evidence.

Unless you’re asserting that he’s really really stupid.
