The good news is that this piece of slime is dead and won’t be a burden on the taxpayers with a life sentence and high-priced attorneys defending him.

That’s right.
The first thought I had when I saw his picture was removing his tattoo’s with a 12 gauge. Just out of splatter range.
Yes. Good news that he’s dead. But too bad they kept letting him out until he killed a police officer.
Is he another beneficiary of Democrap Governor Richardson’s pro-criminal policies including eliminating the death penalty?
Why was this POS out of jail in the first place?
New Mexico has more violent crime that the country knows.
Was he an illegal alien?
The tattoos are hideous.
Wasn’t that Tony Anaya that stopped the death penalty ??
aka IBM ....ITTY BITTY MEXICAN !
That tat practically screams “drug cartel.”
I’m curious about his immigration status.
Job? He no want no steenking job.
"They" have got names, which should be publicized so that such people can be impeached and legally removed from ever having any position of governmental authority.
One is guarding the gates of Heaven, one is in the pits of hell.
Yes, Tiny Annoyance is the governor who ended the death penalty. It has been re-instated since then. A perp who killed a little girl in Artesia assumed room temperature about 15 years ago.
Good ..... death penalty versus life is a valid deterrence in my opinion.
Stay Safe.
