Staff Sergeant Jacques Devoux was exectuted in a most unorthodox manner. On October 21, 2004 15:05:34, Devoux was charged and found guilty of sexually assaulting, and killing, 17 year-old Sofia LeBroauva, and the deaths of Michael Lane (23), Charles DeBronson (25), and Jason DeBronson (20) in New Lanchia City. LeBroauva was said to have screamed for help, while Devoux had her pinned against a wall in a dark alley, near 133rd street. When three men came to LeBroauva's aide, Deveoux shot the three men, each in the head. By the time the police arrived at the scene of the crime, LeBroauva and the three men were found dead behind a liquor store just a few short steps down the block. Search teams spread out through New Lanchia to search for Devoux.

About an hour later, Sergeant Devoux was found passed out under a service tunnel. Apparently, he was drunk and had fallen victim to his liquor. In court, Devoux pleaded guilty and was also found guilty on 6 charges and was given the death penalty by Judge Louis Feremornt II. Rather than lethal injection, firing squad, or by hanging, Devoux was sentenced to a new type of execution. The Fracene government passed a new bill, allowing the new execution to be allowed in the military and only in the military.

On October 27, 2004 13:30:27 Devoux was strapped to a wooden post and blindfolded in an open target range. An FA-22K was ordered up, in front of the witness stands. Devoux's last requests were to appologize to the families of the men and the young woman he'd harmed. At 13:45:48, the 22 opened fire, vaporizing Devoux in an instant. Devoux was pronounced dead at 13:45:50.

The senate is debating on whether the new penalty should remain or if it is too harsh of a punishment for an individual to endure. More on this, later...

The Armed Republic of Scaropin condems this action.
(ooc: its pretty cool)
We call upon other nations to join in our condeming of this form of death penalty. We see no need for the harsh method, the old ones work fine ;)

WE heartily agree with this punishment - we prefer death over prolonged incarciration. Its easier on the system, and allows for no chances of escape.

The jurisdiction of other countries is none of our business. So we will neither condemn nor support this ...erm..."extraordinary"... execution. However, it remains questionable if this is the right way to go, as it clearly appears to be cruel.
(OOC: Yes, I agree with Scaropin, that is pretty cool ;) )

Such methods of "execution" are morally wrong and should be banned immediately. No one deserves to be punished in such a manner that they are vaporized. We shall also work toward the outlawing of this cruel and unusual punishment.

The Government of Argheraal is against such means of execution, this, on the grounds of being to expensive.

A bullet to the head, the electric chair, the gas chamber or hanging is a more cheaper alternative and will cause less quiestioning by the tax payers.

And "endure" means the person suffers for a bit before dying, with this method it dies instantly, so the condemned does not "endure" anything.

(OOC: What were his last thoughts at such way of being executed, i wonder..)

In my country we would have broken all his fingers and toes, sliced his eye lids off- poured salt in his eyes and sprayed solvent down his throat until he choked on his vomit- we did this is to several christian leaders

Good heavens, are you people mad? These are human beings for goodness sake! Slicing off eye lids and pouring salt on the eyes...???? Shooting people with tanks? What happened to the single-shot firing squad and lethal injection?

Currently, our government is working to resolve the whole situation. At the moment, we are not sure whether the senate will abolish this means of execution. More details will be give to the public, domestic and foreign, as soon as possible. Thank you.
