[SENTINEL]

"Ecc 8:11 (NIV) "When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people’s hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong." Just the right Bible reference for this matter. Allowing the guilty to laugh it off and go on lucrative ego inflating book tours is a disgrace."

April 15th 1865 President Lincoln murdered.
May 1st 1865 President Andrew Johnson orders a military tribunal created.
May 10th 1865 Trials begin.
Jun 10th 1865, 4 conspirators hung by the neck until dead.

Now that is justice.
