Thank you, Gov Jeb Bush
Gov. Bush is going out in style, doing what a good governor should do.
Gov. Jeb Bush reinstated a death warrant Thursday for condemned killer Clarence Hill and prison officials scheduled his execution for next month although the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the inmate can challenge the state's method of lethal injection. Hill was strapped to a gurney and his arms attached to intravenous tubes set to deliver a fatal cocktail of three drugs when the U.S. Supreme Court in January intervened and blocked his execution. In June the high court unanimously ruled Hill and other condemned inmates could make last-minute claims that the chemicals used are too painful and therefore amount to cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Bush issued his new order to execute Hill after receiving a letter from Attorney General Charlie Crist (and thank you Charlie!) telling him Hill's stay of execution from the Supreme Court had expired and he had no knowledge of any others. Prison officials scheduled Sept. 20 as the date of the execution.
Killer scum don't want to die such a painful death! Boo freakin' hoo!
Let's see, "butch" Hill was convicted of fatally shooting Pensacola police officer Stephen Taylor and wounding his partner during a 1982 bank robbery.
And Florida has another brave killer, Arthur Rutherford, who's afraid lethal injection will hurt. Let's see, what did Artie do? Oh, yeah, he was convicted for the 1985 drowning and asphyxiation of 63-year-old Stella Salamon at her Milton home. He had worked for Salamon.
And the Supreme Court proves that the law is too often an ass. Prove lethal injections doesn't cause undue pain?! These punks will be drugged and die unconscious. Christ, I wish we could use Old Sparky on these guys. And note these bastards have been on death row for over 20 years! Now that should be unconstitutional. Delaying over 5 years is just plain wrong.
