This story made me rethink the death penalty for half a second

First off it's called Capital Punishment. The operative word is punishment. It has nothing to do with revenge, deterrent or retribution. You are found guilty of a crime so heinous, you die. Simple as that.
Second, there is no perfect system. Perfection cannot be achieved. We do the best we can. There is an appeal process. That's it.
If you want a perfect system for Capital punishment, then I want a perfect system for welfare. Until we can insure that 100% of the money being distributed is not being scammed, no one can receive any benefit. I want the same thing for Social Security disability, food stamps, all forms of public aid, all government grants and student loans. Anything and everything must be perfected before implemented. Then and only then will I accept the demand for a perfect Capital punishment system.
On a side note this guy was a worthless piece of shit who did not "suffer" at all far as I'm concerned. This drugging people to death is bullshit anyway. Bullet to the head, Done, take the body to the dump and let the rats feast on his rotting corpse.

So then it's ok by you if innocent people are put to death so that you can exact your savage punishment to the guilty ones. Just the price of punishing someone huh? Who really cares if a few innocent people are killed in the pursuit of justice.

Do you righties ever think things through?

Do you? Where's your compassion for the REAL victim, 19 year old girl who was shot and buried alive, only because she was unlucky enough to have walked in on this POS and his accomplices while they were robbing a home.

And what does that have to do with it? We are talking about "capital punishment" , not this particular horrible case. Try to keep up.
 
the inmates family will now probably sue for 'accidental death in custody while trying to execute him' -- doh!
They need to instigate a safer form of execution.
