It's a good thing they didn't hire the A team for the execution. They'd still be shooting at the guy.

I don't like leaving someone on Death Row for 25 damn years. This shouldn't have gone on that long IMO. Had to be a quick "out" though.

Guilty to dead should take no more than 90 days. A person is promised a speedy trial, justice itself should be swift as well.
