Unfortunately for you and your argument, the woman who dumped his cold-hearted arse disagrees with you.
I like you as a poster here. However, in this case he was found legally sane at the time of the offense. As such, he's guilty and was sentenced to death. End of story.
Now the issue of forcing him to take meds so that he knows and understands that he's going to be executed is a separate issue.

I understand that, I just think it's a little gratuitous at this point due to his severe condition. Also, I do support the death penalty. What worries me is those blatant miscarriages of justice (not saying this is necessarily one) run the risk of painting the entire death penalty in a bad light and discrediting it, which is why I think it should be used somewhat cautiously.
