'One can scarcely conceive of a sequence of crimes more shocking to the conscience or to moral sensibilities than the senseless kidnapping and rape of a young, pregnant woman followed by her murder,

Bullets.

Efficient, quick and definitive, plus they horrify liberals, which is fun.

“The U.S. Constitution bars cruel and unusual punishment. But that doesn’t mean execution procedures must be entirely comfortable, Thomas Madden, an assistant Ohio attorney general, told Frost on Friday.

“You’re not entitled to a pain-free execution,” Madden said.”

You know, reading this account of his final moments, I know we’re “supposed” to be horrified of how he died...

But I can’t help but be MORE horrified at the thought of his victim’s - a young, pregnant woman just married - final moments, and the terror he inflicted on HER.

To my mind, he gave up any right to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness when he took her right to same away.

Moral of the story: Don’t murder people, you don’t get executed.

I vote for hanging. It’s more appropriate for scum like him than a firing squad.

1989 rape and murder and here we are 25 years later, countless tax dollars later. How the hell does this work anyway? How many freakin’ appeals do sc*mbags like this get? A thousand? A million? This is totally out of control. A quarter of a century to kill this POS when he should have been executed immediately after conviction.

I’d prefer nitrogen asphyxiation, you just go to sleep. Of course child molesters get the garrot.

If you want a deterrent, go back to the mongol wishbone tactic. (It's a 4-way split). Televise it. Drawing and quartering is a close second. Burning at the stake gets honorable mention.

Make the end so undesirable the crime doesn't happen.

Disgusting. The article was written so as to make us feel sympathy for the murderer. A baby-face sorrowful pleading face is supposed to make us feel bad and turn against capital punishment.

If this society really cared about human life, it would guarantee that murderers are put to death swiftly. With or without pain - doesn’t matter. Quick.

I was going to say what you did.

Or better yet. Don’t break the sixth commandment in the first place.

That’s great! It wasn’t like falling asleep—he knew he was dying for his crime.

Still, I would like t bring back public hanging.

Nitrogen Asphyxiation - 99% Nitrogen gas flow at 1.1 atmospheres through a breathing mask and wait till the brain waves go flat.

All natural, no blood splatter or gore, no drugs, inexpensive, can be done anywhere, by anyone, and painless. The condemned just goes to sleep.
