There should be the death penalty for Karl Clifford and those like him

[HermioneWeasley]

There is no doubt he did it. No case of mistaken identity. He’s taken 3 lives. He should be executed.

What is wrong with some off you? Because you don't like someone's opinion you start having to get personal? 🙄 jeez

No way to death penalty. So backwards.

@moonlightwatch what? You just talking about giving general injections? Nurses/doctors have signed a code of ethics

They won't do it! You are so flippant and naive..

This was back when John Oliver's show was still good.

You can’t just get any Tom, dick or Harry to give injections you have to be trained is what I am saying!!!!!!

So who will train for that job?? Who?

Men (and it's overwhelmingly men) who commit these crimes do get released from prison

Some time ago there was a bloke who killed his partners children in an act of vengeance and stuck their heads on spikes in the garden.

He was released a few years back.

🤷🏼‍♀️

This horrendous crime happened 24 hours ago. I think the speculation on this thread is really distasteful

There used be an excess of people who wanted to hang people when we did that. They were rejected because they were not considered psychologically stable.

To kill people over and over again is not a normal thing to do; still less do well adjusted people volunteer.

Even when we did kill people in this country it is not nearly as many as you imagine. Most of them had their sentences commuted to life imprisonment even before the death penalty was abolished.

How many hours is appropriate before we can discuss something that is currently in the news?

Yeah because my spelling and grammar makes all the difference when I was just giving my opinion on this thread like everyone else! Boring 😴🤦🏼‍♀️

It’s exactly what you said.

Ok.

For all those baying for blood, please read this.

Life in prison doesn't prevent murder either but I lean towards life in prison in the hope that people like that get to live the rest of their life in regret but I don't really know if this is true or not.

No no no.

the death penalty has no place in a civilised society

plus I cannot imagine the strain of serving on a jury in a trial where the outcome could be the death penalty. I for one could not do it.

No, they’re shouldn’t.

really? he killed women, not children.

Castration (and I damn well mean it) followed by absolute solitary confinement for every day of his remaining miserable life, no prospect of parole and the mind-damaging consequences of eternal boredom would be a more fitting penalty than the 'easy' way out of capital punishment.

The death penalty wouldnt really punish him because he'll be dead.

It's his parents who'll suffer instead and they didn't do anything wrong.

No. I cannot condone a state sanctioned murder of anyone.
There are dreadful people in this world. Do you want to live in an "eye for an eye" society?
Whilst this thread is interesting, it also names an individual and - as far as know - we need to adhere to the letter of the law to ensure justice for all.

Careful you will be deemed a nutter for even saying that by other MN users 🤣

Well, they've somehow managed to raise at least two sons who've committed murder so they've truly fucked up somewhere.
