"Your thinking would make you a fine Nazi or Communist, since they feel the state can do what it wants even to kill someone whom they are to protect. "
You can stick your typical leftist Nazi accusations. The state is not mommy. The state does not "protect" criminals in jail. Druce killed Geoghan, period. And you blame the state and don't mention the killer himself as responsible.
Either you are naive, a pedophile priest defender, or a leftist. If you want to demonstrate a good example of fascist police power, use a legit case, like WACO. Don't lament the fate of a sicko who put his p**** in little boys...

You have a totalitarian mind. The state is responsible for those it incarcerates. Massachusetts did not fulfill its responsibility. It doesn't matter which crime Mr. Geoghan committed: he was not given a death penalty by the state. It had a responsibility to protect him. Mr. Durce (?) threatened to do harm to Mr. Geoghan, and the state did not respond.
