Last Wisconsin execution:

Please add me to the ping list. Thank you.
Why? What do they do?
I would say authorities already know the ID'd of the other two. Just check the hunting license registry where old Deadeye Vang got his.
Thanks for the confirm, Petruchio.
I see you must not have gotten the memo: "people are the same everywhere!"
That would be great. I'm sure there are lots of people who would be interested in reading a first person report from the family. I can hardly bear to listen to the radio and TV reports on this incident. It turns my stomach.
I hope you will ping me, when the appropriate time has passed and you post the account.
a regular ping list would be great, I suspect I am not the only one who is going to be following this for a while
They'll probably have to transfer him to some other state -- which is what they did with Dahmer, and he didn't live long, either.
Dahmer was killed in Columbia Correctional which is in Wisconsin, he was never transfered out. The gangbanger who killed him (and paid well for it) was transfered to Fed. afterwards because he already had life and nothing to lose in the WI system (which is why he had no quams about killing Dahmer)
OK, time for some "Twilight Zone" music here. Whether he's the same guy or not, you have to admit that one great place for a serial killer is in the woods with a deer rifle.
Also, I would not want to be an Asian-American hunting in northern Wisconsin this weekend, and especially not one in a vehicle with Minnesota plates. I will be very surprised if there is not at least one more "hunting accident" before this season is over on Sunday.
Its funny you mention that. I work with a Hmong guy who just told me he wasn't going hunting this week now because of this and his fear of a backlash. Its too bad really that this one guy makes it worse for everybody although the MSM will continue to insist it our fault.
Actually, I read that only one execution was ever carried out in Wisconsin, and as you said it was a hanging with many "picnic observers". The hanging did not go well, and the horror of the sight convinced the State to outlaw it. This was in the 1800's.
This was written up in my local newspaper last year, but I don't know where I could find a link. (My local paper isn't on line). It was a very interesting story.
Now I am going on childhood memories of my grandfather's story here but it seems as if there was a hanging in Durand, WI years ago which included members of the James gang but that may have been a lynching also. Like I said, my memory is pretty vague about this.
If the authorities have spent shell casings from the 2001 homicide, it may not be that hard to prove. Every gun leaves it's own unique firing pin impression on a casing. When the police searched Vang's house they may have found other weapons. They just have to test those weapons to see if they get a match an wala, you have your killer.
Thanks for the link, it's very interesting.
Bump.
Drive-by hunting????? :o
This is a very sad case....
Sorry, my mistake. For some reason I had it in my head that he was killed in a prison in another state, and didn't bother to confirm that before posting. Mea culpa.
