Brannan, 66, is to be executed Tuesday for the January 1998 slaying of 22-year-old Laurens County sheriff's deputy Kyle Dinkheller.

This murderer has been sitting on death row for 17 years? That's the problem! He should have been put down many years ago. Justice delayed is justice denied.

"This murderer has been sitting on death row for 17 years? That's the problem! He should have been put down many years ago. Justice delayed is justice denied."

Seriously, I was 6 years at the time of Dep. Dinkheller's brutal murder and I can remember the way it affected the entire Laurens County community like it happened yesterday. Now I'm older than Kyle Dinkheller was at the time and his murderer is still sitting on death row.
