Don’t hold your breath Washington State has a terrible track record for executions!

They also have a terrible record on convicting the innocent. Does the word “Wenatchee” ring a bell?

Seems like a waste of time. If he gets the death penalty , it will never be carried out.

*Rumors* that Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhan will be called as Character Witnesses for Monfort have not been confirmed.

Additionally, the DOJ has refused comment on the *other rumor* that Eric Holder has offered to defend Monfort pro bono.
