I remember back in the bad old days of the 1960’s when an outgoing governor would commute all death sentences to life in prison. Glad those days are over.

Now if we could bring back the noose.

Some years back Governor Cuomo of NY would not allow a convicted murderer from another state to be extradited and executed until he served a life sentence in NY for another killing in NY. When Governor Pataki took office from Cuomo, his first act was to pardon the slime from his life sentence. The other state took possession of the convicted murderer and within 2 weeks justice was carried out.
