“Y’all should chill about passing judgment because, by doing so, you show ignorance.”

Are you always so judgmental?

I’m listening to all you talking about 25 years to long and they live better than most people….. How many of you have been there? ADOC? How many of you have never made a mistake ? Accident? Or just done something bad in your life? I sure most always point down the street at someone else’s and say not me…. Well I’m sure if this man did what he was locked up for he is pay up in full! How much you you want to kill someone? Most people are like prison is a cake walk. Hell no it is not!!!! Everyday you hav to fight to live in there… Everyday is a battle for food, showers, heat and cold!!! No place at all to live! If I had to do it I would Reather be dead! Prison is a big diffence than your lil local jail house!!!!

Y’all should chill about passing judgment because, by doing so, you show ignorance. People should be forgiven for their sins, and we must show mercy and justice, otherwise, no mercy or justice will be rendered for US. Basic human rights are not too much to ask, especially if even ONE inmate is innocent. We all know there are more than just one.

haley,
Appeals, lots of appeals. The Constitution guarantees the right to appeal. The state of Alabama guarantees the rightto appeal.

His attorneys need time to frame their appeals.
The prosecutors need time to frame their responses.
Then the judges need time to hear their arguments.
Then the judges need time to consider their responses.
Some of those responses need further response from lower judges and attorneys.
The convict’s attorneys may be handling many cases or may simply drag their feet in hopes he will die before executed or critical evidence will be lost or some witness’ testimony will come into question or will die.
And death warrants have to be signed. Some governors never do and THAT delays things.
In this case, his conviction was overturned and the new trial hadn’t happened yet.

I just don’t get it. What is wrong with our judicial system? 25 years really? WHY? I do believe there should be a certain amount of years between sentencing and execution as there are, people out there, in prison that have been wrongly convicted -however, 25 years? What goes on in those 25 years? A person sits there in a horrible, cruel prison environment, locked up like a dog. Why does our system work like that? Its ridiculous……

J-Mo
He was NOT scheduled to die.
He was no longer legally guilty since his conviction was thrown out.
The prosecution and the court figured black jurors might have voted to acquit or at least vote for a lesser punishment.

They got no faith, it seems.

Now we’ll never know.

This is normal for death row unless its high profile they die of old age or illness.
