Why I support the death penalty for the first time a person murders someone: so they don’t have a chance to do it again.

Like Joseph Ebron, who is finally being sentenced to death after committing his third murder in the last 15 years.

Jurors sentenced a Washington, D.C., man to death Monday for the murder of a fellow inmate at the federal prison in Beaumont.

Joseph Ebron, 30, was found guilty of helping with the May 7, 2005, stabbing death of Keith Barnes. It was the third murder Ebron’s has been convicted of in the last 15 years.

Ebron reacted violently to the announcement, according to federal prosecutors Joeseph Batte and John Craft, leaping to his feet, screaming obscenities and tossing a water pitcher in Batte’s direction before he was tackled by U.S. marshals.

Of course he did. It’s the only way this piece of shit knows how to react to the world around him. Which is exactly why the death penalty is the answer — it’s the only way to protect other inmates, guards, and prison medical and administrative staff from this man’s violence.

This story also illustrates why I think “life in prison” is a suitable alternative to the death penalty — just because a man is locked up, doesn’t mean he can’t keep killing.

Sadly, he’ll probably be on death row for another 15-20 years before his execution is finally carried out.

In the most recent killing, jurors heard, Ebron restrained Barnes while another inmate, Marwin Mosley, stabbed Barnes in the chest 106 times for reportedly testifying against a mutual associate. Mosley later killed himself in prison, a defense attorney said.

If we’re lucky, Ebron will follow Mosley’s example and kill himself in his cell sooner rather than later.

  1. This guy committed his first murder at the age of fifteen and his second murder at the age of seventeen. He was not “rehabilitated” by serving time for these previous offenses. What he had within him that allowed him to kill a fellow human being remained within him from the first victim, to the next, and to the next. It just goes to show that those who are capable of committing murder as a juvenile will become even more capable of it as they grow older.

  4. Remember that one of the Texas 7 who killed Irving PD Officer Aubrey Hawkins was in prison serving life on a capital murder charge. Didn’t stop him from escaping and going back to his old ways.

  5. 1st of all mosley did not kill his self you need to investigate some more 1 of them fucking police officers killed him and how could you “Robbie Cooper”say something like that”IF WERE LUCKY EBRON WILL FOLLOW MOSLEY’S EXAMPLE AND KILL HIMSELF IN HIS CELL SOONER RATHER THAN LATER”???? that Is just crazy AND MEAN u need to kill your fucking self and if my uncle was still living i would make him kill you(tears)……..REST IN PEACE MARWIN MOSLEY YOU IS TRULY MISSED AND NEVER FORGOTTEN

    • Bitch: You want to rob him of the one decent thing he did in his life, i.e., kill himself.

      The turd, Mosley, has been flushed from humanity.

  6. What lovely family these scumbag negros have.

  7. TO TPG u are a fuckn scumbag and u dont know my uncle u dont know who he really is so u should not have anything to sat did he kill someone in your family no so shut the fuck up

    • What kind of idiot and immoral fuck believes one can not speak out against a lowlife gangbanger/murderer/rapist unless a family member was victim? Oh, yeah…Andrea the Skank.

  8. Robbie Cooper do u know Marwin Mosley if not u shut the fuck up 2

    • Gee,Andrea, they found Uncle “Funky’s” body the day after Christmas. Sounds like he killed himself because his family abandoned him.

      Hey, I didn’t know your uncle was a rapist, too. You must be so proud!!!

      • Bitch thats what yall want us to think he killed himself he was 2 strong for that.IF he was on a watch n a whole how did he hang himself u Jerk, and he never raped no one and did u know him answer that?

        • What’s strong about having other people hold down the victim so your pussy uncle could stab them over a hundred times? What’s strong about raping women? What’s strong about shooting up little kids riding their tricycle in front of their home?

  9. where n the hell did u sick people get this info from cause u r wrong u dont even know what u r talkn bout or we are talkn bout the wrong person and fuck all u white people cause yall bitchies dont know us cause he never raped no one.this wedsite is some shit and i guess yall will bad mouth him 2 cover your own ass but its ok cause my uncle is resting in peace so fuck yall and this bull shit site.

    • The info is from the trial docket, you stupid skank.

      And your Uncle “Funky” (LOL) is not resting in peace, he’s burning in hell for all the murders, rapes, assaults he committed throughout his life.

      So glad he hung himself. Saved the taxpayer money. Again, one of the few good things he did in his life, i.e., hang himself, you are trying to take away from him, bitch.

    • Stupid and illiterate.
      No murderer rests in peace – they burn and rot in Hades into the judgement.

      So, you can shut your mouth, and sit down.

      -Sad

  10. I knew funky and he was a killer. He was crazy and I witnessed him shooting at folks on more than one occasion and often heard about his killings but who am I to judge his actions no I havent killed anyone but I have sinned and Sad the bible teaches that all sin can be forgiven including murder Moses murdered someone. There’s only one unforgivable sin thats blaspheming the holy spirit and no one but Funky and God knows if he did that so before you guys start saying who’s burning in hell brush up on your bible reading that kind of talk is not christlike and yall got a lot of maturing to do. Andrea I miss Funky but I guess only because he never wronged my or my family but put yourself in the victims family shoes Funky had a well deserved reputation in the hood just like Mush and I know Dog also. Be realistic dont live life that the things your uncle and my brother cause he used to be with him everyday did were somehow acceptable and they did what they had to do cause youll never grow like that.
