To compare Jesus sparing a woman who committed adultery to sparing a bloodthirsty killer of the innocent, is not a true comparison in any shape or form. This pastor pushing his anti-biblical, starkly leftist, political position asked if Jesus would kill a sinner? I guess he hasn’t read Revelation. God is often merciful, but there’s no doubt that capital punishment was endorsed by God.

Correct. The woman who committed adultery wasn't submitted to a trial by the governing authorities, which has the God-given authority to wield the sword against evil doers. She was being attacked by a mob of accusers. Jesus also instructed her to "go and sin no more." This man murdered another man in prison while he was awaiting trial, which was taken into account during the punishment phase of the trial. I have no doubt that this was a contributing factor in the decision by the jury to choose the death penalty over life without parole.
