Assuming her appeals fail, she'll be a corpse in about 4-5 years.

"Karla Faye Tucker was 25 when she went on her rampage"

Maybe younger. She had the EXACT MO as the Possum robbery/murder.

[TheDon]

Too bad they don't just drag them out of the courtroom and string them up right away.

[TXBSAFH]

Not in TX, now days it is a about five years max.

***I don't see the problem people are having with this***

"People" are not having a problem with this. The msm & activist courts are. And we know they are not "people" - just part of the liberal - oops meant progressive movement.

Many inmates seem to find Jesus in prison, especially those on death row.

That's my husband's argument for supporting the death penalty - that they actually DO go looking for Jesus when they have a specific date to meet Him.

I don't disagree with that, but I'd prefer people have as much time to repent as we can give them. If we had permanent solitary confinement, with food pushed through a cat-flap and no potential for harm to any other humans EVER, I'd start opposing the death penalty. Till then, I support it. Mostly reluctantly, but in case of childkillers, I get tired of messing around - they're wasting food, oxygen & space.

I googled this but had too many hits & can't narrow it down without more info. Got link?

"had the EXACT MO"

Brought a pick ax to the scene and left it there in the back of the person's head.

Standing while 297th District Judge Everett Young read the verdict, Richardson collapsed in a chair and dropped her head facedown on the defense table and wept.

Call me crazy, but if you don't want the death penalty in Texas then don't kill your boyfriends parents!

[fish hawk]

You've come a long way baby! Equal pay, equal rights, equal death penalty.

[demkicker]

No kidding!

Andrew Wamsley had planned to kill his sister, leaving him the sole heir of his parents' estate, according to testimony in Richardson's trial.

Andrew Wamsley, 20, is charged with capital murder in his parents' deaths. His trial is scheduled in September.

Last fall, he and Richardson rejected plea offers by prosecutors in which they would plead guilty to capital murder for life sentences

I hope Andrew realizes he's next!!!!!

[Junior]

Damn. She's a dead ringer for my daughter.

[concordKIWI]

Hey, it's our fault she did it. She's a victim of society!!!!

[LtKerst]

Prosecutors depicted Richardson as a manipulative personality who organized a group of her friends to kill the Wamsleys so her boyfriend, Andrew Wamsley, could inherit his parents' $1.65 million estate. While in jail awaiting trial, Richardson told two inmates that she was in the Wamsley house on the night of the murders and took part in the slaying of Rick Wamsley, according to trial testimony.

If Man,(or woman) sheds man's blood, by Man shall His (or her) blood be shed.

I dont care that she is 21 or 19 or 18 or even 15 If She wants to Play with Bad People, then Like Tony Baretta says..
"Dont do the crime if you cant do the Time"

screw Her...She Helped Murder 2 People..For Greed! For Money

She May Be sorry Now. But How can She bring back Those 2 People?

We as a Just Society must give Justice to the Victims and their Loved ones. Period.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Cry me a river. If she did the crime, the punishment fits.

I think you missed the point, it was the victims' family that was concerned that the jury might let her skate with a life sentence. BTW, Pam Smart wants to be paroled and still maintains she was guilty of adultery but not involved in her husband's murder. She's a walking advert for the death penalty, some day some nitwit judge or politician is going commute her sentence.

[b4its2late]

Don't take offense, but it doesn't matter to me who was crying for whom really. She needs to be punished if she did what she has been charged with. I think the crying comments in the article are there to make the reader feel for this criminal. That's where I'm coming from.

Maybe I'm being extremely thick, but who is Pam Smart?

[jimt]

Even the judge appeared stunned reading the verdict -- lethal injection for a young woman.

He shouldn't be. We don't like murderers in Texas.

"She may not deserve that chance, but we're begging you for that chance for her to reflect and reform herself."

Hey, she'll probably have over ten years (unfortunately) to reflect and reform herself.

Then we'll permanently rehabilitate her.

Councilors Cool To Idea Of Pamela Smart Parole

Councilors Cool To Idea Of Pamela Smart Parole

CONCORD, N.H. -- Two of New Hampshire's Executive Councilors say they are against giving a pardon to Pamela Smart, who's serving a life sentence for her role in the 1990 murder of her husband.

Smart was convicted in 1991 of persuading her teenage lover and his buddies to kill her husband. Four teens, including one who admitted pulling the trigger, testified against her in what became the state's most publicized murder trial.

In a pardon request filed last week, Smart repeated her argument that she didn't get a fair trial because of all the media attention, and says her sentence was too harsh. But some members of the Executive Council -- which decides pardon requests with the governor -- aren't open to the idea.

Councilors Ray Burton and Peter Spaulding both say they oppose Smart's request. Spaulding says Smart has two chances -- quote -- slim and none. (AP)

I can get behind that, but your citation addressed the concerns of the victim's family, who are 100% behind you. I'd tie her (and Pam Smart) to a tree tomorrow if I could.

[b4its2late]

That's ok. See you on the threads....
