“Kenny just began to gasp for air repeatedly and the execution took about 25 minutes total.”

Pretty compassionate way to kill a person.

Once again, the Law in the south is brutal.

    It is seriously incredible that in the United States prisons are for profit. Healthcare and water are for profit too…

      Only 8 percent of US prisoners are in for profit prisons. This is definitely a problem, but it’s not the main problem with our justice system, by any means. The way we focus on punishment instead of rehabilitation is a bigger problem than the fact that for profit prisons exist. I mean, getting rid of for profit prisons is a start, but the whole thing needs reform.
