Low IQ … give me a break. He must have been smart enough to hold down a job. He must have been smart enough to plan a robbery. He must have been smart enough to plan out the slicing up his co-worker and throw her in the freezer. . Hurst needs to be 6 ft. under.

Mike you are so right!!! Did this victim have the opportunity for a fair trial..oh NO SHE WAS NOT Giving a chance to live and speak against her defender cause this trash took her life. To me once a dirt bag like this has been found guilty by the people of our community then they did what was asked of them. When it comes to the sentence phase of the trial you can give the jury the opportunity to come to an agreement on life or death but if they all can’t agreement on the punishment then it is only right that a Judge be giving the right to make the decision. He is the Judge and should make the final decision if the jury can’t. This MURDERER is still killing and the courts are letting him. Every year he is alive and breathing her family is having to live this all over again. My heart goes out to her family and I will be praying for you!!

I remember reading somewhere that his IQ was in the low 70’s. That makes him borderline intellectual functioning, and he has plenty of IQ points to understand right from wrong provided his parents taught it to him. I know he was taught in school. I worked with kids like this guy for several years before moving to corrections, and his IQ is the LAST excuse I would have bought had I been a juror on his case. He needs to go. The gene pool does need cleansing from time to time, and this is one of them.

I am so glad Anne was not a juror. The man would be running free today. Our Judicial System thinks like her. It’s okay to have a reason to kill because his brain dead senseless mind says it’s okay to kill. He deserves nothing more in life but a hole between his eyes.

Yet, our hard earned money pays for these varmits to sit in air conditioning all day and twiddle their thumbs. And the families of these victims and their small children hold their hands and cry all day. My prayers go out to the victim’s family and you too Anne.

@anne 1 of 2— ARE YOU SERIOUS !? I don’t need to head to a library. So his IQ is borderline, so what ! It wouldn’t matter if he were a bonafide moron. I bet he doesn’t put his hand on a hot stove. Bet he pees in the toilet. And bet he wipes when he poops. So he can learn which tells me he’s smart enough to know he was doing wrong (before) premeditatively killing that poor lady.
Besides that, it’s not just about punishment, it’s about deterring further crimes. Like whipping a child, it’s supposed to hurt so they don’t do it again. Bleed your heart out.

…….one thing for sure…his I.Q. has to be more than Annes…to stab a co-worket 60 times..and stuff her in a freezer..he does not deserve to even breathe the air another day..much less 30 more years…system very flawed…

If his trial were held today he would not be on death row. There were many things which caused him to kill the woman. Let’s start with his low IQ, head down to the library and read about him. I said did not want to be on that jury and the judge excused me. The death penalty never brings the deceased victim back. and It will never OK to kill.

If Mr. Davis and all the other people who are against the death penalty would have to pay directly themselves for the care and feeding of the death-row inmates, then the cases could go to execution much quicker. Some other countries require the convict’s family to bring food or pay to keep the guy alive. But no, Mr. Davis knows that ALL taxpayers are paying for the prison system. But it’s really not the money. It’s the evil of the crime that needs to be punished. Every convicted murderer needs to be executed in a manner similar to how they killed their victims. Let the criminal community know that their execution will be just as painful as the evil they do to others. These ruling by the judges, state and federal, have given a victory to murderers and their evil.

No mercy shown by the defendant. None is deserved by him. If he’s able to kill, he’s able to suffer the consequences. What happened to the victims rights??? This is a miss carriage of justice.

The system sucks. If ever there were anyone deserving of the death penalty, it’s this guy. His crime is the very definition of what requires a sentence of death. So the very small deterrent the death penalty may have been is long gone. Thanks you stinking filthy lawyers and judges.
