.... or manufacture such weapons and has no need for such a weapon. Under the “Justice Model” this inmate is held accountable for the life that he had just taken by receiving the death penalty, but the “ Medical Model” would have sentenced this inmate to a number of rehabilitation programs believing that this decision to take human life was caused by the environment that the inmate lived in.
