A cardiac application of 150 grains of jacketed lead moving at 2,900 fps is effective and very quick for all involved.

agreed, it shouldnt take 34 months or even 34 weeks, they should schedule execution for 60 days from sentencing and no delays unless grounds for an appeal and new trial are found. 

cant get that done in 60 days then oh well, justice served 
I'm all for speeding up the process, but this is stupid.

when those people were convicted of espionage in the 2nd world war, it didn't' take a month for them to get executed

It’s absolutely dispicable that mirderers like that sit on DR for 34 years. I had someone there that killed my aunt and two cousins (and she was also pregnant) and he sat on DR for 17 years. 34 is even more sickening.

My sentiment is with you on this.

But logic is we've imprisoned and killed a lot of innocent people.

The case that always comes to mind for me is the Texan that was executed for "arson" when it was a space heater lit up the house and his only crime was being a coward when it came to rescuing his kids.

So the guy roots in prison based on the testimony of a good ole boy fire investigator that calls fires " the beast" and some circumstantial evidence of an accelerant, lighter fluid that splashed on the carpet by the porch because they grilled right there.

Only after years does anyone with knowledge on fires and how they act look at it. Iirc they even burn a house with the same floor plan. But guy gets executed without the evidence being presented.

Here's the guy follow the links.

Don't be against executions. Just be willing to let time punish while science and forensics catch up or get used in the first place.
