The high court, without comment Monday, rejected the case of Dexter Darnell Johnson.

SNIP

He does not yet have an execution date.

Maybe he can be also be as contrite that Texas murderer Charles Base was in August, 1986.

They were out on a date when Dexter Darnell Johnson held them up, robbed them both, raped her, then shot them both to death. He's long overdue for his lethal injection.

The appeals court denial of appeal is very particular and graphic about the horrific nature of this crime by this evil inhuman monster.

It is a tragedy that they no longer execute by hanging, because he deserves a short drop and asphyxiation, not a clean neck break.

10-years?! And, I’m sure that’s a SHORT stint on Death Row.

IMO, you lose that final appeal and they lead you DIRECTLY to the offing of choice.

Myself, I can’t see what carbon-monoxide isn’t used...Then the single bullet to the brain-pan to ensure. No ‘cruel’, no ‘unusual’ (PLENTY of suicides by CO poisoning).

Put them in a 55 gal drum.
Bolt the lid on.
Drop them down a 15-story elevator shaft.
Bury the drum.

I like the Nork method.

I prefer:

Put ‘em in drum
Bolt on lid
Open spout
Pour in dissolving solution of choice
Seal drum
Store drum along with radioactive waste
