i dont get it??? This murderer got to live life for over 16 years after what he did to the por victim…compliments of the taxpayers….what a waste of gov monies and even more of an insult to the powerless victim…something is terribly wrong . Looks like the victim got the DEATH sentence and the murderer got LIFE …something stinks in the criminal system.

This coward has been tried and convicted almost 18 years ago. Now the supreme court is getting involved. Stop interfering and kill the coward as he was sentenced. What a waste of the tax payers money keeping this coward alive.

He deserves the death penalty for such a cruel, brutal senseless murder.

Mike you are correct in saying the bible says an eye for an eye. Actually Deuteronomy 19:21 states; life shall go for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot. But you need to read the verses before 21 to really appreciate this commandment, starting with verse 16. Verse 21 is the punishment that an individual would receive if he falsely accuses a person of a crime he didn’t commit. If a person were to falsely accuse another of murder and the accused could receive the death penalty if convicted, the false accuser would be subject to the same penalty, death. A good deterrent against false accusations. We need that in our judicial system.

I don’t think he should get the death penalty (lethal injection). He should be bound, gagged, stabbed, and left in a freezer. Death row is a joke!

I remember this senseless killing from way back. I did not know the young lady, but, it was such a horrible crime, I have never gone back into that Popeyes since that day. The death penalty is exactly what is deserved.

Doesn’t The Bible say “an eye for an eye”?

Also, aren’t vicious animals put down? “Intellectually disabled”? That is ridiculous, you can look at his photo & see he’s no idiot. I have to agree with Pop. This is so sad.

I was Managing Big Lots back then and we couldn’t figure out why she did not have all the lights on, usually all was busy preparing for opening just like we did . I believe someone questioned if she had gotten there on time to open that morning…..

A very capable friendly young lady, tortured and deprived of her life,

I have never been able to enter that place since. The Murderer should already have recieved his death sentence, this is totally absurd. We dont need to be housing and feeding these murderers. He deprived a beautiful, lovely young, productive woman of her life. Why then should he have His?
