I was 8 when it happened. And while the murder didn't register I do remember that for the rest of that school year my mother would walk my sister and me to the bus stop and wait until the bus arrived, and she would be there waiting when the bus dropped us off. We're talking about half a block. She never told me why other than "Oh I just feel like getting out of the house for a few minutes" but it was all about Ann Harrison.
I was 1!
This Yokel has been on Death Row MY WHOLE LIFE!
We went from Bi-Planes to ME262 Jet Fighters in less time >:(
That anyone, including the slime attorneys who "represent" vermin like these, who have the audacity to claim that somehow putting them down in a manner that one puts a beloved family pet "to sleep," somehow deprives them of their "constitutional rights," or that the drugs are compounded in any negligent way as to "cause pain, suffering, etc." is an insult to decent, law-abiding people everywhere!
Even the local news on radio, tiptoed around sounding "compassionate" toward the murderer and attempted to make verbal sense out of the argument(s) put forth by the attorney for Taylor. Believe me, this was no easy task but the news reader did her best to avoid insult those of us who remember the shock and disgust of Harrison's senseless murder.
Note to the person concerned that another appeal might have been being attempted, the MO taxpayers have been on the hoof for more than 25 years when a jury unanimously found both perps guilty with physical proof. The appeals are no longer over guilt but over whether drugs used in executions may or may not "cause inhuman ........"
