Don't care. You don't get accused of murder if you're a good person.

This is a truly frightneing post. Being a bad person doesn't warrant execution. Hell you don't even have to break a law to be a terrible human being.

It's not 1950 anymore where black guys are found guilty with no evidence, and it's not a movie.
It takes a decade to execute someone. You don't get executed these days unless you are guilty without a doubt.

The "innocent" people that have been executed were usually pieces of shite that were proven to be at the scene of the crime. They might not have actually murdered someone, but they were part of it.

There are people on death row in multiple states who were convicted before DNA testing was available and have subsequently been exonerated by DNA testing. There are also people who have been convicted after DNA testing where the sample size was then insufficient for a test but with subsequent advances can be re-tested.

Prosecutors fight these kinds of applications every day because they cannot face the potential that a mistake was made. So rather than make sure the original conviction was accurate, they double down on the infallibility of a human judgment, which is a crock of shite.

My family had to make the decision to remove my father (50’s) from life support. We were in the room. He died with my mother holding his hand.


I pray to god I never have to see anything like that ever again.

Kinda. My friend shot a guy in the face at point blank range with a 44 Magnum. The guy deserved it.

Yes, I know someone who witnessed several in the chair. I try to block out the description.

Formal or informal?

I've seen both. Spend enough time on the ground in a war-torn area of the Middle East, and you'll get your fill.

It is a very illuminating example of the human species.

And of LA's 8 lethal injection executions, only 4 have taken place in the past 20 years. None since 2010.

Was wondering this also. Did they make him look at a picture of OKC so his last thought would be of all those people he killed?

I googled it. Apparently they had a camera set up for witnesses in OK City to watch the execution.

I have seen several people die while working in the ER and one in surgery.

Probably not the same.
