Mary Sanchez and her absurd Logic
Read what Mary Sanchez had to say about the execution of Clayton Lockett:
In the minds of many, cruel and unusual was just what Locket deserved. In 1999, he forced 19-year-old Stephanie Neiman to watch as her grave was dug. He shot her as she stood in it. The gun jammed. He shot her as she begged for her life. Then, the teenager was buried, alive.
Nobody disputes Lockett's guilt or the horror of his crime.
But what was done to Lockett was an unjustifiably gruesome act of homicide. And the United States' obsession with finding a more comfortable, "humane" way to commit government-sanctioned homicide has led us to this place.
Clayton Lockett buried a 19 year old woman alive and Mary Sanchez is pining against what she refers to a government-sanctioned homicide. What she characterizes as an unjustifiably gruesome act of homicide was a series of mistakes in administration of the lethal execution. I doubt the relatives of Stephanie Neiman are losing any sleep over Lockett's agonizing death. Burying her alive was the only unjustifiably gruesome act committed.
People like Mary Sanchez are one brutal murder of a family member away from changing their views on the death penalty. Sure, lethal executions should be effected in a manner that minimizes the suffering of those being executed, but one botched execution is no reason to quit killing lowlife monsters like Lockett. Killing those who kill is fair and just Mary. Shed some tears for those who loved Stephanie, not degenerate psycho killers like Lockett. She was the victim of a home invasion, a rape, and then buried alive!! Wake up Woman.
