Maybe his fellow inmates will help the situation out. That tends to happen.

Why does it take more than a year or two to execute somebody who has been so sentenced? This is sickening!
Once a person has so obviously been proven guilty, why can’t his execution take place promptly? Why let the lawyers play with it for 20 or 25 years?

this lengthy procedure is a weakness in the system.

Giuseppe Zangara was executed only 33 days after killing Anton Cermak. It's amazing how much faster things moved in '33:
- 1933-02-15 Zangara takes a shot at FDR but hits Mayor Cermak after a bystander spoils his aim.
- 1933-02-21 Zangara gets 80 years for attempted murder. Quoth Giuseppe, Dont be stingy. Give me a hundred years.
- 1933-03-06 Cermak dies of peritonitis. Zangara is tried again, this time for murder. The verdict is Guilty, and the sentence is death.
"You give me electric chair. I no afraid of that chair! You one of capitalists. You is crook man too. Put me in electric chair. I no care! Get to hell out of here, you son of a bitch [spoken to the attending minister]... I go sit down all by myself... Viva Italia! Goodbye to all poor peoples everywhere!... Lousy capitalists! No picture! Capitalists! No one here to take my picture. All capitalists lousy bunch of crooks. Go ahead. Pusha da button!"
- 1933-03-20 Zangara is fried.
