Current Events 5- Mayor Threats

Earlier this week,  Boston mayor Thomas Menino told a group of collage students that he would slowly torture three suspects accused of robbing and killing a pizza delivery driver. A student caught on tape him explaining why the death penalty was unfair when he got off track and started saying that if he caught the suspected murderers he would like to have a fight with them. Also that he would do something worse than the death penalty. The judge jailed the 3 students accused of the crime without bail. Thursday he said he regrets saying what he did and that his emotions got away with him. He also says that he is not in favor of the death penalty but this killing grabbed him the wrong way and that he was just angry about it.

Critical Thinking Question:
Should he be punished for saying this?
