Think about the type of person who would actually want to be an executioner. Not just someone who supports the death penalty in the abstract but who is so depraved that they are genuinely willing to kill people while believing that they are righteous for doing it.

“You shouldn't get a new trial because you should have known at the time of your trial that our expert witnesses were giving false, unscientific testimony and now it's too late for you to challenge it” is really an argument that prosecutors will make.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

We have a legal system that requires prosecutors to prove the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt and for the jurors to reach a unanimous verdict, which they could not do in the Clancy case thus resulting in a mistrial by hung jury. Hope that helps.

The death penalty is not about justice. It's about people who are obsessed with the idea of killing but want to do it publicly and act high and mighty while doing it.

Besides the killing itself, the psychological torture that is inherent to the procedure of the death penalty is sickening beyond comprehension.

Tennessee plans to execute a woman tomorrow. She was 18 when she committed the crime. She's now 50. Like most on death row, she's also a victim. And like most on death row, she's a far different person now than she was then. No one humanizes the condemned better than @lilianasegura.bsky.social.
