A mistake is turning right instead of left. A mistake is getting vanilla ice cream instead of chocolate chip. Raping and murdering an innocent 21 year old girl is not a mistake!
Claiming innocence for decades further diminishes the worth of the victim in the eyes of the murderer and last minute admission of guilt will do nothing to prevent their journey into hell.
The death penalty is on the statute book because the citizens of the state agree with it.......as they agree with all other statutes they vote for.
It is, perhaps, understandable for a murderer convicted under that law to cry foul but the vast majority of citizens do not murder or be party to the murder of their fellow man.
Tim, Are you keeping all of your poems so you can get them published?? That would be wonderful but I am sure that you have already thought of that! Love, Lynette (gypsyrose)
Sad to hear you had a bad week. Yes, in Belgium we celebrate Halloween, though it's not really my cup of tea. It has come over from the US and it's becoming a new tradition on October 31, as on November 1 and 2 everybody has a holiday. In the beginning of November here in Belgium it is the tradition to commemorate our dear ones who have passed over. Halloween seems to me in our country more a commercial business. But a lot of people like to participate. Well everybody's free. Yes meanwhile I read comments from Rita indeed. Maybe we will meet in spring next year. I got a splendid week myself, been to a concert yesterday and met a few new people. Today it was meditation day. I also visited a woman I know in hospital, she's not well at all... Will you pray for her too? As I told you before, a letter of mine is on its way to you. Hope you'll feel better by the time you'll receive it. I think the best way to handle with gossip is to be completely indifferent to it... Well Kelly I sent you a big, big hug. I hope you'll find a bit of consolation some way or another. Do take care of yourself, will you? xxx Little Pilgrim

It is what it is...........get over it!
