What did he do? transport drugs? for profit?
he deserves to die then
Is attendance by invitation only? Purchase your tickets at the door?
PS
show up at the time and place.
You have not wronged anyone in particular. What you did was to violate a statute of the state. The particular statute relating to drugs carries with it a punishment far too excessive for the "crime". (Crime against who in particular?)
IMO, you definitely do not deserve to die.
Good luck Mr Tochi. I hope you live to see your grandchildren.
