Marcellus Williams was tried and sentenced to death for the murder of a woman. After his conviction, it came to light that there was no concrete evidence against him. The jurors, the prosecutors office, and even the victims own family pleased for a stay of execution but the governor of Missouri allowed it to pass because this is what justice in this country is.

This is not justice. When a prosecutor of a case says they don’t think someone they tried should be put to death, that needs to be seriously considered.  Usually they’re all ego. This US SC is equally as disgusting as the people who murdered him.

This is my biggest issue with the death penalty.  The justice system is imperfect and is susceptible to corruption.
Who knows how many innocent people have been wrongly killed.

So much cash goes down the drain with death row.

Better to just have an officer in the courtroom to give a clean headshot the moment the sentence comes down.

They used to tie you up to separate horses just to rip your body apart. Parson probably wanted that instead of injection.
