Do you support the death penalty?

The sibbings say he wasn't abused, why would they lie? I'm surprised your trying to cast doubts on whether Olson abused or not, considering your harder on criminals then I am. Olson wasn't abused, all the evidence says that are no reasonable doubts on whether Olson was abused or not, he wasn't. He deserved to be put in Gen Pop and suffer a gruesome death at the hands of his fellow cons.

Why do you assume that I'm casting doubts?

I can't say any more on whether Olson was abused than I can say that there's life on Venus. It's a question without an answer. I've neither explored Olson's life nor have I talked to anybody about it.

It's not unusual for siblings to deny what went on in their respective homes if shame exists. That doesn't mean that they have anything to be ashamed of, but it doesn't mean that there wasn't either. There is no real way to determine what goes on behind closed doors.

The only person who can tell us what went wrong with Olson is Olson himself. Until he speaks truthfully about his life, we cannot know whether he was turned into a sociopath or whether it was something inherent in himself.

Death only relieves someone of suffering. If a person has committed a crime bad enough that death is speculated, I say they should rot in prison and have a loooong time to think about their crimes.

You're assuming that the person will feel guilt about their crimes. If they're sufficiently sociopathic, they only feel anger at being inconvenienced.
