sounds like it went just fine to me.
So he died of natural causes.
I don't doubt that some of these people on Death Row are there as a result of crimes of passion, but most of them I would think are there because of the heinous nature of their crime.
Why can't a gallows, rope and hood serve the purpose?
I just don't get the thought process.
Karma. It's a bummer.
Put him in a cage to eaten by pigs on TV.
Did they administer an ice pick? This guy raped and murdered a CHILD!
This schmuck buried his victim ALIVE so either way he went he got off much easier than his victim
Sounds like G-d wanted him dead and in Hell one way or other.
The object is to kill the criminal.
He’s dead, so the execution was successful.
Why do we mollycoddle these rejects from society?
Just kill the societal reject and be done with it.
Why not knock off all this folderol and go back to a good old-fashioned hanging? It’s quick, efficient, and you can use the rope over again.
I cannot imagine anything more grotesque.
And this, of course, from The Slimes...where everyone who has been proven guilty is “innocent” in their minds. They jut want these maniacs back on the streets killing more “carbon emitting” people. Sick, sick, sick.
The crimes were ghastly.
The death penalty turned ghastly is unacceptable in a civilized society.
The death inducing drugs have become highly and obviously suspect for some time.
Fix the damn things or cut it out until you can deliver the goods with a measure of mercy. We are not the dog pound. Animals receive better than humans. Salivating for human or animal suffering is degrading to all mankind.
I hope it was painful for him. The crime he and the other are charged with are beyond the pale.
Hanging works first time, every time, and rope is cheap.
he died, I’d call that a success.
Hal: [after Del’s execution] WHAT IN THE BLUE F*** WAS THAT? There’s puke all over the floor up there. And that smell! I had Van Hayes open both doors but that smell’s not going out for five damn years that’s what I’m bettin’. And that a**hole, Wharton, is singing about it. You can hear him up there!
Paul Edgecomb: Can he carry a tune?
Hal: [wry chuckle] Okay, boys, what in the hell happened?
Paul Edgecomb: An execution. A successful one.
Hal: How in the name of Christ can you call that a success?
Paul Edgecomb: Eduard Delacroix is dead.
Is government now so incompetent that it cannot even properly execute a prisoner? Has it really come to this?
