Who they heard it from: an alleged accomplice granted immunity, a jailhouse informant, an acquaintance with a checkered criminal past...." I hate to tell them this but thugs like Tookie don't exactly hang out with boy scouts, nuns, and certified public accountants. They associate with their thug accomplices, jailhouse cons, and people with checkered pasts.

Why not just let him go in Contra Costa?

[Tookie Williams] Clemency bid to include claims of errors in trial

Yeah, right..."errors" that didn't come up during the assloads of appeals that this jagov blew thousands upon thousands of tax dollars on.

For once, just once, I'd really like to see Schwarzenegger actually live up to his Hollywood "Terminator" image.

String the animal up in the town square, and be done with it.

The author throws up scores of speculations why the testimony of criminals is probably manufactured lies. Most likely, the witnesses believed Williams stories that he is the killer, and they also feared he would just as soon kill them if they crossed him. I believe these criminals.

Redemption
Ok give him an award for all his "good works" and the chair for the murders.

The Left's problem is even the anti-death penalty liberal activist federal Nine Circus found nothing wrong with the way Williams' trial was conducted and the evidence is overlwhelmingly indisputable. He is guilty as sin. And none of his backers are arguing for his innocence. If he were innocent, that would have come up years ago.

(Denny Crane: "I Don't Want To Socialize With A Pinko Liberal Democrat Commie.Say What You Like About Republicans. We Stick To Our Convictions. Even When We Know We're Dead Wrong.")

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected all of Williams' arguments about the witnesses who testified. It found that Williams' trial attorney "effectively called into question the truthfulness of Oglesby's testimony through cross-examination." The panel found that Williams could not prove that Garrett secured anything more than a hope of leniency when he testified. And it held that, even if Coleman was beaten and coerced, the time between the beating in 1979 and the trial two years later was enough to make his testimony "sufficiently voluntary."

If even the 9th Circuit can see through this, it's time to kill him.

Williams has had 24 years to loft any evidence that his case was screwed up or that he was innocent. He has made appeal after appeal only to be shot down.

Nine days until justice flows through the veins of the co-founder of the Cipts.

I would that his victims and the victims of his organization had recieved 24 more years of appeals.

Pull the trigger, trip the trap door, flip the switch, start the injection, just terminate this brutal racist butcher.

Not really knowing anything about this case, I don't have any opinion on the clemency petition, but that so many FReepers anxiously anticipate dancing on a grave sickens me. The execution of a criminal is not a cause for celebration; it is an occasion for sadness that it ever had to come to that.

"He's changed, he's done so much good since then." - That's what the libs are saying. The cry of a repentant man is never "It was somebody else's fault."

[tertiary01]

Williams should get down on his knees and give thanks that the State has given him a life span much longer than the average for his followers. 24 years of being granted almost every legal desire except freedom. Shouldn't have been over 5.

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected all of Williams' arguments about the witnesses who testified.

Most damning part of the whole article.

So you wrote a childrens' book, Tookie? Very nice.

You're entitled to one -- no, two -- gold star stickers on your forehead before they administer the needle.

[lardog]

Arnold will woos out and commute the killer's sentence, especially now that he has a left-wing commie faggot on his staff. Oh well, don't blame me, I voted for McC.

[ridesthemiles]

Those "errors" have been appealled over and over again. The most recent one was just last week.
All have appeals been denied.
Tookie is a thug and a criminal.
Mike Farrell can stand up there and tell the world how great Tookie is, but you can bet your last dollar that Farrell won't take Tookie into his home and be totally responsible for his behavior, with penalties for both Tookie and Farrell when the inevitable happens.
The lies from Snoop Dog - a former CRIPS GANG member- and all the others crying about poor Tookie makes me puke.
They all need to spend some personal time with the VICTIMS of Tookie's life style.

Thinking straight about the likes of Tookie Williams

[Beckwith]

It seems to me that "tough guy Tookie" is really a pansy after all.

Hey! Tookie, take your medicine like a man. All this Hollywood touchie-feelie stuff makes you look like a girlie-man.
