That must have been quite an experience for you, P.D.

So, they've been fartin' around with this guy through 4 or 5 trials for how many years now? And, he's been sentenced to death 4 times now but the high court threw two of those out?

The U.S. has far more lawyers per capita than any other country in the world, in spite of the fact that less than 3% of the population ever gets arrested for a felony.

That means the small criminal part of the population is a valuable commodity for the criminal "justice" system. They HAVE to keep cycling those same people through the system over and over again - because every time they cycle through lawyers make money, lots of it.

IF this guy finally gets executed, it'll be a couple of decades from now after who-knows how many more briefs and appeals. Lawyers will get paid $150-$250 an hour of tax money for all of it.

I didn't mean to get into this rant on the Brewing forum, so I'll just have a beer and forget about it now.
