KILLER: No sympathy here

Dec. 11, page A15…Protocol followed? Here’s a killer who pistol-whipped and shot convenience store clerk Casey Wilson in the head execution style. Who knows how much she suffered not to mention all of her family, friends and acquaintances for the rest of their lives. What human protocol did this killer follow in his actions?

The defenders of this condemned inmate are declaring it inhumane and that no autopsy can measure the extent of his suffering. Oh, and he coughed and his chest heaved. Very little consolation for the loved ones of Casey Wilson. He should have received a punishment that meets the crime. Instead, taxpayers pay $25,000/year to feed, clothe and house him for 22 years. yeah, that’s $550,000! This is just one way our criminal justice system is so broken. Death row should not be on a waiting list for 22 years. Where’s the justice in that?
