Pretty surprising the USA still has the death penalty, really.
Interesting facts about who still uses the death penalty, and who has outlawed it (and when). http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0777460.html

I'm studying capital punishment right now in a constitutional law course. The only three "first world" countries left to have it on the books are South Korea, Japan, and America.
What makes this even sadder is that if somebody had killed that guy to defend themselves while they were breaking into the home there is a good chance, if that place is like a lot of places in this country, the authorities would have wanted to prosecuted the people that were just defending themselves.
True enough. It is peculiar that the U.S. has been a world leader in many forms of punitive litigation, yet is, in my opinion, terribly behind the times in regard to the death penalty.
I remember being quite disgusted when I read about this story, no only the barbarity of the crime but also the poor decision making by the police. And no one commented when I posted the story back in mid September :crying:

Connecticutt is one of 39 states with Castle Laws or Stand Your Ground Laws so the Homeowner could have legally killed him if given an oppourtunity. Unfortunately he will be given 3 meals a day and a warm bed and all the healthcare he needs while waiting for the sentence to be carried out.
One of the more harsh crimes I can recall hearing of. There was a home invasion in my state where two beasts tied up a family of three and slit their throats and robbed the place. This was several years ago. That one still turns my stomach. Funny thing (or not) is that one of those POSs hung himself only a week after they sentenced him to life.
About this Hayes and that other guy, I say string their asses up next week. Sorry lurker, I have no sympathy for evil.

As they say, it's better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6! :ak47:
great point though
All true. :horse: :hatsoff:

I understand people feel a lot of anger and can't wait to see these animals executed but I sometimes think life behind bars in a tough jail is far worse, years thinking about what you've done or watching yourself grow old whilst constantly having to look over your shoulder, it aint exactly a walk in the park as some people seem to think. At the risk of sounding unpopular I agree with Dirk and don't believe in the death penalty, I don't think it has any place in a civilised society (even Japan with abolish it soon leaving the USA as the only G8 country to still practice it) and is clearly not a deterrent, however I respect and understand the reasons many people do want the death penalty, some cases I read about like this one often get me thinking but I always go back to my initial conclusion. :2 cents:
That's what they say. But if that were the case, these parasites would'nt continue to challenge their penalties as much as they do. Sad to say, there are a portion of lowlifes in America who actually probably have been in prison/jail so much they become institutionalized and don't have a problem with it.
Then do something.

Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
This was an horrific crime....almost beyond comprehension. Understandably, emotions run extremely high with something like this and I have nothing but great empathy for the father. What a terrible, senseless and tragic thing to occur. The perpetrators are monsters....unquestionably, the most incorrigible examples that society can produce.
However, the severity of the act does not overshadow the arguments that anti death-penalty advocates like me have presented many times on this forum. However, out of regard for the victims and the father, I would not disrespect them in this thread in order to turn this into a debate on that issue. There are plenty of other threads that have already served that function on this forum.
What a sad, sad story.

hang ,draw and quarter.
first they hang you over and over until you lose consciousness each time.
then they cut off your dick, then they cut you open and remove all your organs one by one.....a good executioner can do it so you remain conscious right up until the heart.
i really feel the husband should be allowed to kill this man himself in any way he wants if he wishes in cases like these.

My heart breaks for the Father - Dr. Petit. Losing a child is never easy. Losing BOTH children in such a violent fashion is just unspeakably cruel. AND he suffers the added grief over losing his wife. The mother to their children.
Such a tragedy! How awful!
I am in full agreement with what you just said.

And what would you have me do, grab the Remington, tool half way across the country and put the feral beast down? I'm sorry, but I value my freedom, and I am not a Conneticut citizen.
I used to wonder how I could muster the strength to pull the lever or tie the noose, but I don't wonder anymore. I know if you handed me a loaded .38 Taurus with hollow tip I would have no problem pulling the trigger on this waste of space.
