He died a quick almost painless death, he didn’t suffer mentally, he didn’t see what the rest of the others did. Vera was frightened and was scared most of the time. She suffered physically, because she had to live through all of it, and she suffered mentally because she was frightened all the time. She committed the worst crime and suffered because of it.
