A South Carolina inmate convicted of killing a state trooper more than 25 years ago cannot be executed due to a mental illness that has him believing he is immortal, a judge ruled.
John Richard Wood, 59, lacks the ability to rationally communicate with his lawyers and does not have a rational and factual understanding of his crimes, why he is being punished or the nature of his punishment, Judge Grace Knie found based on the opinions of three mental health experts, according to NewsNation (WSPA) and the South Carolina Daily Gazette.
A psychiatrist with the prosecution as well as a psychiatrist and a psychologist with Wood’s legal team all agreed that he failed this two-pronged legal standard for competence to be executed.
With this ruling, the judge upheld his attorneys' claim that the debilitating effects of his schizophrenia prevent him from facing the death penalty at this time.

These judges who will never allow a death penalty should be immediately impeached, they know full well when they accept the judgeship, they have no moral courage to follow the law, they are the worst humanity has to offer in cowardice.
Disgusting craven insipid feckless petty tyrants.
You say you’re immortal?
I got a needle here that says otherwise.
Lets see who’s right.
“Mr AP, you were clocked doing 85 in a 25mph school zone”
“I am immortal”
“OK you are free to go”
As goes the judiciary, so goes the country. Looney judges. Corrupt judges. Black activist judges. America's judiciary is off the rails and must fixed. Otherwise, take the blindfold off the statue. Cause that broad's got eyes.
Educate him.
The weirdest aspect of this is that it might become precedent for pleas from other criminals.
Can we execute Judgette Gracie or is she a retard too?
I guess then there is no reason to put him on suicide watch.
I’ll pay you 5 bucks to prove it. 😏
That’s one way to test the accuracy of his claim. There is also firing squad, hanging, and so many others.
To those who watch Project Farm on YouTube, “He says he’s immortal? We’re gonna test that!”
“There can only be ONE...”
“And you ain’t him...”
“He who believeth in him shall have everlasting life”
If Skippy is immortal we can’t kill him so what’s the problem? We can at least give this bass tard an “honorary” execution before we put up a statue of him. When does the state trooper going to get his “due process” and justice?
Not sure the judge had much choice. According to the article, the expert hired by the prosecution apparently agreed the guy was too nuts to be executed. If the experts from both sides are telling him that, it is hard for him to find legal grounds to rule differently.
I have a theory, so I’d like to test his self-perception.
Hey, we all believed that about ourselves when we were in our late teens and twenties, didn't we?
We’ve lost most of the schools. We’ve lost most of the control of legal immigration. We’ve lost most of the courts. The leftists knew exactly where to fight the battles the past century. The saying “Going out with a whimper instead of a bang” sounds about right.
We’re gonna test that ! lol
The host does a wonderful job.
I just watched one the other day , Worst Drill Attachments or something like that.
A four bladed Chinese Weed slicer was #1 Worst .
