Death row final statements

I think my problem is, i quite often forget how stupid the general population can be (not you, the defendant in the case). But in all honesty going along with a friend to perform an armed robbery without thinking the consequences and possibility of things going wrong. It is quite likely in this case it would be near impossible to find out the true course of events and don't feel a death sentence appropriate.
In principle it would be a brilliant idea. In a country with millions of guns in circulation. Highly impractical.
The kid didn't complete high school, he almost certainly had a pretty rough life up until that point and of course that doesn't excuse what he did, but it does inform us as to the why he got onto such a situation and didn't realise or consider the full consequences and import of his actions.
I feel some empathy toward him, because but for the Grace of God, I could've been him.
A lot of them are pretty horrible tbh, cant believe some people do what they do.
While I do think there are some people who deserve death, I think that the death penalty doesn't work. If a person commits a crime that he knows will give him the death penalty, he loses nothing by trying to go out guns blazing if he is dead either way, but has a chance to escape or take people with him. I don't know what the best punishment/deterrent is, but I just think the death penalty isn't it.
ones i dont like, ooh wait, all of them..
last one i read was a man robbing a womans home with her two kids there, they shot her in the head and then asked the kids how to work their car..
how can something so disgusting make it as a topic on overclockers family friendly forum? i would not want kids reading all this sick ****
have you read what they've done, they dont deserve to live imo
Even the one where the forensic evidence was rubbished post execution?
Can you post an example? Just interested.
even the one where he admitted to raping then killing the woman
even the one where he picked up a blackmale and dragged him to his death for being black
a lot of them would have admitted or were caught doing their crime..
obviously i dont think an indecent person should be killed
It makes me feel sick & angry that does, this is why we shouldn't have capital punishment. ******* murderers!

Thoroughly sick individual who got what he deserved.
It's already been posted, executed in 2004, forensic and expert testimony has since been discredited.
So what do you do about the innocent person killed?
Totally agree, death penalty is barabric and never justifiable in a modern justice system. I'm glad we have got rid of it and I'm glad supporters of the death penalty seem to be a minority in the uk. Even on the gov petition website the petition for keeping it banned has more votes.
There was also that one late last year, entire thread on it. When the evidence was questionable at the very best, and almost certainly completely wrong and that was before he was executed.
What do you about the innocent tax payer slaving daily to feed and house criminals who sit in jail reading porno mags, eating, drinking and lifting iron whilst someone somewhere (if they are lucky enough to be alive) re-lives a nightmare?
It's not really like that though is it? Only daily mail readers believe that this is the reality of the situation, and we all know how bad daily mail readers are.
