How about this guy. He says he didn't do it intentionally. I'm skeptical.

More in this vein later.

We had this before, didn't we?

How does someone get overweight in prison? Between not getting shanked, not being Bubba's bitch and being quick when you drop the soap is there even a chance to be sedentary?

Clearly they feed him too much.

Didn't this happen before?

Bah. It's obvious that you read my post, and used your time machine to get that out before I did.:p

The most violent criminals are generally kept away from each other. So no, all of you jerking or fisting off to the image of prison rape, made just by rapists being raped, it's not as true as you thought.

On the subject, you get fat in prison due to probably no exercise in his case, and the body automatically reduces metabolism rate if food intake is low. That's why diets usually don't work, BTW.

Further on the subject, I would kinda feel a bit glad for him if not for the specifics of the crime. Don't get it wrong, it's not that I'm against death penalty, of course, just that I see it as a necessary evil, but an evil nonetheless, and don't feel any satisfaction from people being killed, no matter for how heinous a crime.

can we just shoot this fat fuck and be done with it

Just make him walk the plank.

Can't be too fat for that (if the plank is adjusted for his weight) and the sharks gonna love it!

hmmm environmentalism and execution done at the same time. I think your on to something.

Making sharks obese is environmentalism?

I believe you underestimate the smartness of the shark.

He won't feed when he's not hungry, no matter how fat the potential victim is.

I remember thsi before. And I'll say what I did (or wanted to) before.

I don't care how the murderer feels. He should be dead already.

the fat floats they will jsut save him until they are hungry again.

Just be sure he really did kill people first. Amazing how many Death Row inmates are turning out to have been wrongly convicted in the first place, you know?

When they say Americans should reduce the amount of fat, that's not what they meant.

Well naturally, but the set-up just seems too "Oops, oh well, guess I can't be executed." But that's my opinion, I'm not the one deciding, am I?

Exactamundo! Blubberfest, here we go...

I don't think that's a good idea in the long term, too many fat criminals floating in the sea and you'll have Greenpeace trying to have them classified as an Endangered Species.

Norway, Iceland and Japan are going to take care of the problem... for scientific purposes!

I thought sharks didn't like the taste of people.

Most don't. Maybe some do. I honestly don't know if that also applies to hungry sharks, though.

OOh! You know those electric exercise thingies that supposedly shock your way to a firmer leaner you? We should hook him up to one of them and exercise him to death. :)

Ouch, that's a hurtful way to lose weight. :/

with rapes homicides committed post 1990 Id say He did. It is almost standard practice to test the seamen for DNA and get a match.

The guy is full of shit. He's stalling. A few weeks ago, he stated - and made sure the AG investigated the claim - that he killed "a hockey player who beat his sister" prior to killing the two female University of Akron students. Stall tactic (http://blog.cleveland.com/metro/2008/08/prosecutor_plans_to_look_into.html).

The crime was in 1986. I don't know that there's any DNA evidence; in fact, I assume that there isn't.

Governor Bob Taft (quite possibly the dumbest elected leader in the history of the free world) decommissioned Sparky in 1991. Lethal Injection is the only method available in Ohio. (http://www.drc.state.oh.us/Public/capital.htm)

Clearly they should invent a new method of (humane) execution that can accomodate the morbidly obese. Then they can't use the "I'm Too Fat" excuse to stall.

Most post 80's they save the semen samples and match it on one of his appeals.

I wouldn't be surprised to see such legislation forthcoming.

only let them eat deep fried foods and speed up nature's work.

Nah, that'll just lead to another SuperSize Me lawsuit.

Agree'd.



If done right [i.e., shot to the brainstem], its instant and painless.

If you read the article, it quite clearly says he was in the Army, not the Navy.

I say... hang him upside down, tan his hide then after gutting him, draw and quarter him like they would do with heretics!

So I was reading, and I thought the story was interesting and I was ruminating on it a little, when I scrolled down and started reading comments. Shoot the fucker. I'll do it. Kill him. No, torture him first. Etc, etc, etc.

I'm not sure if it's my flu, or some sort of out of body experience that caused me to actually be surprised by the vituperation being expressed therein...but I was. Quite surprised actually.

I'm sorry...is this REALLY a 'normal', and 'natural' response? Yes, I'm aware of the crimes he most likely in fact committed. I didn't skip that part in the article. I just honestly don't get how so many people there, and here can react so...absent of any actual thought. Just pure, gut, instinct. Hatred. Bile.

You people are strange to me.

Eggiweggs. I would like to... smash them!

Yeah the bullet is the easiest way. prehaps he could also be dumped in the middle of the sea to prevent a burial. It may actually be cheaper for the state
