Then and Now
September 27th, 2011 by Mike VasilindaManuel Valle is scheduled to die at four on Wednesday afternoon. By the time his sentence has been pronounced, it is estimated the state will have spent $50,000,000 (50 Million Dollars) to execute the convicted murdered. The Department of Corrections today released the mug shot from 1981.
Had Valle been sentenced to life in prison, estimated costs to date: $16,000 per year times 30 years, equals $480,000 or nine tenths of one percent of the cost spent on the execution.
