    Default Are these sentences grammatical?

    Dear Forum Users,

    Could anyone please revise these sentences for grammar:

    1. The murderer is sentenced to capital punishment in order to protect other citizens from him, who wished to take lives.

    2. Neither of my dreams is real and also they do not seem to come true in exactly the same way as we saw how Joe' dream came true yesterday evening.

    3. These rules, with diametrically opposite consequences, are applied to the same person.

    Thank you very much.

    I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
