Why the heck does it take 32 years to execute a death row inmate?

Wheels of justice are mighty slow... A right to a speedy trial doesn’t just benefit the accused, it benefits the victim’s family too.

Agreed. How about 32 minutes?

Judge: “The jury has unanimously found you guilty. Bailiff, escort the prisoner to the execution chamber. Dismissed! [gavel bang]

Good question.

I've been watching "Mayor of Kingstown" on Amazon lately (freakin' excellent series, BTW) and from the show it seems like Michigan executes an inmate a week.

My solution:

365 days of appeals.
File as many as you want.
On 366th day, summary execution.
Next...
