A Missouri man has been executed for the 1998 fatal stabbing of a woman despite calls by her family and the prosecutor’s office that put him on death row to let him serve out the rest of his life in prison.
“Tonight, Missouri lynched another innocent Black man,” NAACP President Derrick Johnson said in a statement.
This is also the case for all other executions – it’s just state-sanctioned murder – but this case is so clearly awful and a racist lynching that hopefully it starts waking up the people who defend the death penalty.
One of the problems these monsters have been having with carrying out executions is that they can’t get pharma companies to sell them the drugs they use and they can’t find actual healthcare professionals to perform the act. That’s why there’s been a few cases recently of having to cancel or postpone an execution because they couldn’t get the damn IV line in.
He did do something, which was to disband the committee investigating whether this man was wrongfully convicted or not and then later he denied a stay of execution.
Everyone from the Attorney General down to the guy giving the lethal injection is a murderer.

Any human who would willingly deliver the fatal cocktail needs to be locked away far from humanity.
From what I hear, some people salivate over the opportunity

Agreed, but here is a fun story about one such man https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaJtZ5cF8Ac
Governor could have done something, right?

Yep, the governor went above and beyond to ensure an innocent man was lynched by the state.
