Trial By Fire

  1. I recall reading this article some time ago... I confess I subscribe to this literary supplement...

    The death penalty is an ugly punctuation mark on a vulgar system of incarceration that we tolerate in this country.

  2. I tried to fathom being strapped to a death bed and having a needle slid into my veins, all the while knowing that my death was being stage handled as an illustration of power.

    I can't do it. I know I'm going to die. I understand that there's a slim chance that I might even be murdered.

    I cannot really wrap my thoughts around being executed after a four hour procedural delay.
