A federal appeals court will hear arguments Tuesday on a lawsuit filed by 23 death row inmates who are challenging Missouri's secrecy-shrouded lethal injection protocol, but the outcome won't affect nine of the plaintiffs — because they have already been executed.


One plaintiff in the suit, Earl Ringo Jr., could be put to death at the state penitentiary in Bonne Terre just hours after the hearing on the suit, which the losing side is likely to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

How about don't be a criminal worthy of a death sentence?

Put a bullet in their head and be done with it.

I think they should have the same Constitutional Rights they gave their victims.

But but but...that would be cruel and unusual punishment.

A bullet to the back of the head wouldn't. Never know it happened.

Anticipation of death is the punishment. Carrying it out is the reckoning.
