A man's wife of twenty years learns that her husband is having an affair and is transferring all their savings into an account and leaving the country, abandoning her and her kids. She obtains a gun and shoots him in the head, killing him. She dumps his body in a river.
A man who has a low opinion of women kidnaps a nineteen year old girl running alone in a park, kills her, dismembers her body and sticks her head in a jar to keep in his house.
Both of them get caught.
In your opinion, is one crime harsher than the other? Does one deserve a stricter punishment than the other.
How would your state/country deal with them and would they see a difference or would both people be charged with first degree?
