If she murdered a cop she should have been executed.
But, various programs to help keep inmates under control are quite useful. A Christian prison program is currently under attack because it includes privileges but apparently it helps reduce prison violence.

Good grief, do the New Jersey state troopers really think inmate of the month is such a high award they should complain about this?
Isn't everyone up for this award a pretty bad person? Doesn't someone have to get the award. Might the prison system in NJ want such an award to encourage the prisoners to behave.
Now I guess one could object to allowing a man to get a sex change operation and move to a woman's prison pretty outrageous? On the other hand if you wanted to cut that part of me off, I might consider it cruel and unusual punishment and seek intervention by the federal courts.

Either states should execute convicted death row prisoners within a 1-year period, or they shouldn't have capital punishment to begin with.
What do states think death row is? A defunct hip-hop record label?
To: Coleus
New Jersey... the poster child for extreme liberalism. It has a Rose Bird, RINO-dominated murderer-loving Supreme Court. What's every one so upset about? Its exactly what New Jerseyans want. Now they should all go home to sit down and shut the hell up!

What bugs me more than anything is that the media refer to this sexually mutilated thug as a woman. They'll play any charade, except one that has the smallest semblance of normalcy.

I disagree... Although it's wrong to kill anyone, cops are just crooks that work for the government. They live by the sword, they die by the sword...

"Either states should execute convicted death row prisoners within a 1-year period, or they shouldn't have capital punishment to begin with.
What do states think death row is? A defunct hip-hop record label?"
And this case is particularly frustrating. S/he has been tried twice, convicted twice and sentenced to death twice and each time a new trial was ordered on a technicality.

Just like Rose Bird. What's the point of having a death penalty? Both RINO Forrester and Democrat Corzine want to abolish it. I dare say this cop killer will NEVER be executed.

And the in the third trial s/he is is going to represent himself... you can just imagine the drama fest that's going to be.

So, if a guy puts a wig on he gets to go to the woman's prison?
Cool!

"Either states should execute convicted death row prisoners within a 1-year period, or they shouldn't have capital punishment to begin with."
I actually agree with this. Their Lawyers should have a set time period (say 1 year) to bring in all appeals. The case should be reviewed by a higher court or a court set up just for Death Sentence cases. If all is in order, carry out the sentence. I think a system like this would work. Executing someone 15 years after a crime does not deter anything, and if the justification is closure for the family, it is too long await.
Other than Timmy McVey, it seems no one is executed in less than 10-15 years. Hummmmm, I wonder why Timmy was so fast????????
