He should have been executed by the State and not by his fellow convicts.

Equal justice under the law means, justice will be meted out even though the law has failed to do its duty.

I agree.

This is NOT justice.

Conservatives believe in rule of law, not vigilanteism. Those of you cheering make me sick, you give conservatives a bad name!

He was a scumbag, but he didn't get a death sentence.

I hope the perpetrator is caught and prosecuted. Who will they determine they have the "right" to kill next?

Why? He's just as dead either way and this way is much cheaper. He probably asked for it by trying to do to a fellow prisoner what he had been doing to young boys.

As with Dahmer, we have come to the point thanks to the libs where society has had the bar lowered so much, we now let the worst of us decide what the line not to cross is, and the libs wonder why the 2nd Amendment means something to us.

The lowest dregs have decided that murder is okay, but eating human flesh, and having sex with kids is too much for them.

Maybe we should change the rules and let the murderers carry out the death penalty for us, they seem to be able to do it without blinking. While the libs want the rest of us to close our eyes to the human garbage that commits the crimes.

It is unfortunate that sometimes even criminals have a better sense of justice than the state.

State execution takes so long that the threat of retaliation by other prisoners, who are notoriously tough on child molesters, is a far better deterrent against this kind of offense.

I had the same suit. The non-felon has so much 'love'and sympathy for the criminal element of our society that they cannot hang those that deserve it. Therefore, they knowingly allow the criminal element to purge themselves. This procedure can ultimately bite us.
