Vickie,
Are you suggesting that we as a society act with the same brutal indifference as killers and rapists? Aren’t we better than that?

The need for justice does not mean we should allow the innocent to be sacrificed so the family of the victim can feel better. If we are not 100% sure that this guy did it, the government cannot kill him. That would be a crime far more atrocious than the original crime.

Especially considering that crimanals have have been cleared because of DNA evidence are overwhelmingly black, it’s only logical to assume that black people have sometimes wrongly put to death. and it’s nto OK to “break a few eggs” and kill an innocent man to satisfy the family of the victim.

Good Call…everybody should be 100% guilty on a murder charge if the sentence is dealth, let no mistakes happen at all, because that guilt would haunt you for your life, if found out differently, that the misjustice of the police and prosecution was wrong!

Is the victim allowed a last meal? Does the victim get to have a family member be with them and hold them before they are murdered? Does the victim get a mild sedative before they are raped, beaten, killed? The system stinks regardless if this man is innocent or guilty!
