The Supreme Court Temporarily Blocked Trump’s Bid To Restart Federal Executions

[longknife]

“We expect that the Court of Appeals will render its decision with appropriate dispatch,” Friday’s order reads. Justice Samuel Alito put a finer point on that directive in a statement accompanying the decision, which Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh joined.

“The Court has expressed the hope that the Court of Appeals will proceed with ‘appropriate dispatch,’ and I see no reason why the Court of Appeals should not be able to decide this case, one way or the other, within the next 60 days,” Alito’s opinion reads. “The question, though important, is straightforward and has already been very ably briefed in considerable detail by both the Solicitor General and by the prisoners’ 17-attorney legal team.”

All of this was to be expected when AG Barr announced last July that the Bureau of Prisons would resume executions after nearly 20 years. 4 inmates quickly filed suit on something really picky, how the catheter was to be inserted. And a federal judge sided with them.

All four were convicted of murdering children.

Lunacy. Why do lefties love convicted murderers so much?

 

[BULLDOG]

Child murderers deserve a slow painful death. I would say go for it if we were sure that we only executed guilty people. Unfortunately, we know that innocent people have been killed because of mistakes in our system. It wasn't discovered that the dead people were innocent until after they were dead. Until we can be sure we aren't killing the wrong person, it's cheaper to just keep them locked up and away from society.

Is locking them up for 60 years and them dying in prison really any different than executing them after 20?

Yep. How many executed innocent people do you think is acceptable?

Executing them immediately is best.

It's better to let 10 or even 100 guilty live in prison that to execute 1 innocent person.

See the problem is that YOU don't have any idea who is guilty, you just flap your money maker to defend scum.

I know it's been proven that we have executed innocent people. That isn't acceptable.

The saying is actually better 100 guilty go free than imprison 1. Of course that would make any justice system impossible.

It's a goal to attain to, not an actual workable system of justice.

The funny thing is the DP gives people who get convicted of it far more representation than some poor schmuck locked up for life.

That's what the courts are for, and in DP cases the level of appeals is quite staggering.

Proven beyond a reasonable doubt, or "proven?"

And within the last 30 years or so please.

The death penalty is much more severe than being locked up for life, as well as irreversible.

Yet we know the courts have gotten it wrong, and we killed innocent people while letting the guilty get away.

Someone dying after being locked up for 60 years is also irreversible, and less people seem to try to exonerate those incorrectly convicted of life sentences than DP sentences.
