(CNS News) — Attorney General William P. Barr ordered the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) to schedule the executions by lethal injection of four federal prisoners who were convicted of murdering children and, “in two cases, raped the children they murdered,” said the Department of Justice on Monday, June 15.
Last year, Barr directed the BOP to revise the Federal Execution Protocol to use the drug pentobarbital for executions. This protocol is followed in state executions and has been upheld by federal courts and the Supreme Court, said the DOJ. The order was delayed by a district court injunction but that has been lifted, “clearing the was for the federal government to resume capital punishment after a nearly two decade hiatus,” said the DOJ.
“The American people, acting through Congress and presidents of both political parties, have long instructed that defendants convicted of the most heinous crimes should be subject to a sentence of death,” said Attorney General Barr.
“The four murderers whose executions are scheduled today have received full and fair proceedings under our Constitution and laws,” he said. “We owe it to the victims of these horrific crimes, and to the families left behind, to carry forward the sentence imposed by our justice system.” more
I wonder what reason the Left will give for opposing this?
I’m pretty sure they will be opposing it, elimination of the death sentence is one of their priorities, or so it seems to me.
Don’t put them down like dogs by euthanizing them hang these scumbags. Anyone who willingly murders a child should be hung and their bodies disposed of in a lime pit.
It’s about time. I agree with geoff, hang the fukcers.
Scheduled? Just march the bastards to an empty cell with a drain in the floor. A suppressed .22 behind the ear and Voila! Hell, I’ll donate a box of 50 if you need them.
I’m still partial to a good old fashioned firing squad.
We already knew he was a liar. Now he proudly plays the idiot card.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Strangely enough, they all want pizza and hotdogs for their last meal.
^^^ Popcorn & Cokes for everyone else!
Pentobarbital is the cure for pedophilia.
AG “Fred Flintstone” Barr with another soundbite for the masses.
Yabba Fucking Dabba Do.
OK. Now take a crack at Cankles.
No brainer.
Now come the “He didn’t really do it and we just found who did” and “He had an inadequate defence (because he lost)” appeals.
Finally… some good news from Barr.
But … but … but … he din’t have a puppy when he was growin up!
Sure that’s not just a part of their religion?
izlamo delenda est …
Why isn’t Ilhan Omar in prison yet.
Where are the Russia coupster indictments.
Where is the announcement against Act Blue fake BLM bail campaign fraud…
I’m not licking crumbs from the floor any more.
Leftists will fight this tooth and nail as they do for all convicted murderers but will destroy children in the womb by the thousands without blinking an eye, they’re evil that way.
