What explanation did they use for it? It is also shocking (or maybe not at all) that USA has death penalty with all their talk of freedoms and similar hypocrisy. And they're like - 'peoples in China kill and eat dogs', crazy pricks in USA are killing actual people (and not just in their own yard).

If you find out later you're wrong, there's no way to undo the execution. No other argument in favour of abolishing the death penalty is needed. That's the justification for getting rid of it, plain and simple.Debra She Who Seekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01845703092794695023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733289016000331233.post-87409605580838042402018-10-21T20:33:20.265-04:002018-10-21T20:33:20.265-04:00Well, if Sheriff Tate is still in office, then I&#...Well, if Sheriff Tate is still in office, then I'd say things are definitely still bad. He was as guilty as the other investigators of setting up a case against Walter, and bribing/threatening witnesses to lie.
