Six Executions Slated In Next 2 Weeks

Posted by | September 28, 2015 22:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics


The murder capital of the world will be executing six people during the next two weeks.

On Tuesday, Sept. 29, Georgia is set to execute Kelly Gissendaner for her role in the 1997 murder of her husband. If executed, she will be the first woman put to death in the state since 1945.

Georgia has already postponed Gissendaner’s execution twice this year. In February, her execution was delayed due to a winter storm. In March, her execution was called off before she was administered the lethal injection after the state found particles floating in the syringe…

On Wednesday, Sept. 30, Oklahoma is set to execute Richard Glossip for masterminding the 1997 murder of his boss — Barry Van Treese — who owned a motel Glossip worked at. Glossip’s execution was halted by a state court hours before he was set to die by lethal injection on Sept. 16. On Sept. 28, the courtrefused to grant Glossip a hearing to review “new evidence” that his lawyers claim prove his innocence. His execution, which was halted for two weeks, is set for Sept. 30.

Glossip has maintained his innocence for nearly 17 years on death row — a claim that has led several thousand people to support his cause, including anti-death penalty advocates, senators, and celebrities like Susan Sarandon and Richard Branson…

Oklahoma also set to execute a second person, Benjamin Cole, on Oct. 7 for the murder of his young daughter, Brianna, in 2002…

On Thursday, Oct. 1, Virginia is set to execute serial killer Alfredo Prieto [pictured]. If allowed to proceed, it will be the state’s first execution in more than 30 months…

In addition to the scheduled Cole execution in Oklahoma next week, Missouri and Texas also are scheduled to carry out one execution each on Oct. 6. In Missouri, Kimber Edwards is due to be executed in the 2000 murder of his ex-wife, Kimberly Cantrell. In Texas, Juan Garcia is due to be execution in the 1998 murder of Hugo Solano.

        They do seem to have a conflict of principles.

          so basically no one’s allowed to die unless the judge approves it?

            In my younger, more susceptible years, when people thought they could teach me Their Religion, I was told GOD said when people would die and he was the only Judge.

        these cretins are not pro-life.

        They are pro-forced birthing.

    Richard Glossip:

    Bloody Mattress Mary Fallin knows this guy is innocent – his conviction is based on the testimony of the guy who actually committed the murder.

    In order to save his useless skin, the actual murderer pretended that Glossip hired him but there is absolutely not a single scrap of evidence that shows any connection.

    Typical right wing haters wanting to murder people for revenge.

    Usually Texas can do that all by itself
