do you agree that for a case such as Stephen Tony Mobley's, genetic evidence alone is not determinant of his actions as there were also environmental and peer factors influencing his upbringing. I don't think that "breeding out the bad" is ethically and generally accepted as eugenics has historically negative notions associated with it such as during WWII in which the "bad," as deemed by one group, were exiled. This belief is subjective and unethical. I do accept the verdict of the case, being that Mobley was guilty of armed robbery and homicide. Perhaps instead of the death penalty, rehabilitation could make a difference in an individual such as Mobley whose upbringing and environment negatively impacted his development and life.
