Florida executes first inmate since botched lethal injection in '06

Florida has executed child rapist and killer Mark Dean Schwab, the
state's first execution since they were halted after a botched lethal
injection in late 2006.

Schwab, 39, was pronounced dead at 6:15 p.m. ET. He was convicted of
kidnapping, raping and slaying 11-year-old Junny Rio-Martinez in 1991.
The U.S. Supreme Court rejected his appeal earlier today. Schwab's
lawyers had argued that the state's revised lethal injection
procedures still were likely to cause pain and suffering.

1991?

So it took 17 years to kill him. If there's such a thing as inflicting pain
and suffering upon the convicted, making them wait a decade and a half
before executing him qualifies.

We need to go back to the days when a small town tried and convicted
criminals. When convicted, the next day, the convicted had a bag dropped
over his face and a rope draped around his neck followed by a four or five
foot drop.

Care to solve our nations criminal problems? Instead of three strikes and
you're out (life in prison), I prefer 5 years and you're dead. The moment
any criminal serves 5 years in prison, the next day, execute; no appeals.

Today we have heard the voice of reason - I hereby nominate Mr.
Wilhelm for president.

Look how many lawyers will be flipping burgers and washing windshields
once the 18 year appeal industry ceases to exist.
