[Former Military Chick]

3 part series, well better hurry he is scheduled to be executed Tuesday

[jeremiah]

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.......

[in hoc signo vinces]

Yeah, well niether did O.J. Only O.J. had more money than this poor guy.

[CaptRon]

Ray Allen has been on death row for more than 23 years. During all those years, he has steadfastly insisted that he is innocent.

Oh. OK. I guess he didn't do it then.

[digitalbrownshirt]

Too bad the doctors saved him. It would have save the taxpayers a few bucks.

[DoughtyOne]

Hey Clarence Ray, don't worry man, we won't either...

[DoughtyOne]

...got that syringe ready?

LMRO

[Revolting cat!]

What a miscarriage of justice! After all, the man says he didn't do it!

[Alouette]

Laser surgery could restore his vision; San Quentin's own ophthalmologist recommends it, but the state has failed to provide it.

I want laser surgery to correct my eyesight, but insurance doesn't cover it and I can't afford it. I guess I should go out and kill somebody.

[jazusamo]

Michael Kroll sounds like a real bleeding heart.

[Delta 21]

All convicts on death row should have a DNR attached to their medical files.

[teenyelliott]

I couldn't finish reading it. It was making my brain hurt.

Why the hell should the taxpayers be expected to provide laser vision correction? Open heart surgery? Are you kidding me?

the judge called the prisoners' health care system "deplorable" and guilty of "outright depravity."

Good. Don't go to prison then.

[teenyelliott]

this poor guy.

You didn't really mean that, did you?

[No Longer Free State]

As our interview was coming to a close, I asked Ray if he was willing to express remorse. He said, "I'm terribly sorry for all that happened. But I can never express remorse for this crime, because I didn't do it. I'm remorseful about many things, but not for a crime I didn't commit. I'm so sorry it all happened. I hope to meet the victims in the afterlife and explain to them I never plotted to harm them and I never wanted them to be harmed."

What, your victims don't already know the truth? B.S. This smoke and mirrors is reflective more of your guilt than of your alleged innocence.

"Love thy brother and sister" seems to have been thrown in the wastebin of history.

Multiculturalism/multiracialism has its consequences.

PING

Says interview but I would beg to differ ...

After reading this one can see why there were no mercy from Arnold .. not that there should have been his punishment was on the money ... just way to long to carry it out.

[IronJack]

Fighting to present "the full picture of Mr. Allen's case for clemency,"

Fighting to present "the full picture of The People's case for execution,"

[in hoc signo vinces]

Nope...sarcasm.

[LK44-40]

Let's go ahead and needle him....then I will be willing to read the whole story. I hate to invest time in a long read until I know that there is a happy ending!

[Former Military Chick]

Thanks for the giggle ... however he really is preaching to the well .. the uncaring left. Not one liberal faction that was out there for Tookie is out there for this guy to live.
