Some people are just no damned good, and the world is a better place without them. Derrick Sonnier was one such person. And tonight the world is a slightly better place.
The international “World Court” somehow or another has it in their heads that they have a say in US law.
The last post on the death penatly (Charles Hood-related) has about 373 comments, so I’m closing it down and starting this new thread. I’ll start a new post for Hood once a new date is set (soon I hope).
I’m trying to get approved to become an approved/credentialed media witness for state executions and offender interviews. I think I’m in for an uphill fight, though.
I’m not sure what this means — does it mean that the death warrant didn’t actually expire, and that a new date doesn’t have to automatically be requested and that instead a new date automatically is set for 30 days from now?
I just showd Big Sis (Tracie Wallace’s sister) the news, and she thrust her fist in the air and said an emphatic “Yes!” Tomorrow afternoon we’ll make the 167 mile drive to Huntsville to see Hood finally pay for his crime.
I have closed the comments threads on all the previous Charles Dean Hood threads, as several of them have over 400 comments (links to those threads are at the bottom of this post).
And as for the lack of mercy? He’s received far, far more than he showed Felicia Prechtl.
In the order, Hood’s defense asks for a motion to “stay [his] execution and suspend rules of appellate procedure to permit rehearing of direct appeal.”
The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has updated their Scheduled Executions web site. The updated site lists 8 upcoming executions.
Either way, the courts should make sure that this woman is never again able to have kids — whether that’s through forced sterilization or through incarceration.
Just like the last post about the two idiots smoking dope out of the skull of a corpse that they dug up from the cemetery, the answer to “what the hell is the matter with these people?” boils down to this: drugs.
In related good news, the most vile person currently sitting on death row in the United States (and that’s really saying something), Jose Medellin, has been given a date with the gurney — August 5.
Hood has had one scheduled execution date (June 30, 2005) come and go since his he murdered Roland Williamson, 40, and his 26 year-old girlfriend, Traci Lynn Wallace in Plano, TX in 1990.
