Death Impends 7,975 Posted March 3, 2018 Death row inmate Alva Campbell, who was due to be executed last year but had his lethal injection called off when his executioners failed to find a suitable vein (due to his numerous health issues), has died of natural causes. Another hit for my B-Team if he gets the Mail AP QO I assumed he would. I mostly picked him because the novelty of getting DDP points from a death row inmate (since he's dead of natural causes) tickled me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coffee_and_candles 21 Posted March 18, 2018 Carlton Gary (aka The Stocking Strangler) executed on Thursday in Columbus, Georgia. Big question marks over his guilt, allegedly DNA results 'prove' he couldn't have been the killer but these were sat on by the legal beagles - also the footprints at the crime scene were a size 9 whereas Gary had whopping size 14 feet. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5513621/Injustice-lethal-injection.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snakeman 5 Posted April 7, 2018 According to today's Daily Star, Rose West is in poor health and in hospital.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted April 21, 2018 Surprised this isn't posted, but maybe it's elsewhere. An 83-year-old man has become the oldest inmate to be put to death since capital punishment was reinstated in the US in the 1970s. Walter Moody was convicted of killing judge Robert Vance after sending him a mail bomb in 1989. He was pronounced dead at 8.42pm local time on Thursday following an injection at the Alabama prison at Atmore. Moody gave no final statement and did not respond when an official asked if he had any last words. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
