Once you take the life of another you forfeit your own life. I don't see it as deterrent or revenge, I see it as a debt. And it also assures no repeat offenses. And as for that bull*&^% they told me in law school about better the 100 guilty go free thatn that 1 innocent gets convicted, that is crap if even 1/2 the guilty go out and murder again.

Carla will meet her maker at 6 pm on Tuesday!! I for one am in favor of the death penalty especially in this case....no one who commits an act of such violence needs to have the priviledge of life...Read your Bible..even Carla knows that! This is not a case where someone just shot someone...this is a case of extreme violence where the person had to really get into the act. She didnt just hit her once either,,read 12 times!!!! If Carla has gotten religion ..then good...she will get to meet her maker that much sooner(how many people on death row haven't gotten religion?).

OK Pete, but remember you're no less dead whether you get impaled with a pick ax or taken out with a hand gun. I think the pick ax just goes to further reinforce her diminished mental state at the time. I didn't say that I thought she should be released, but I see no harm, and possibly benefit to allowing a commutation of her sentence. She could still live a relatively productive life in an institutional setting. Her execution will simply be a matter of political expediency. Looks like Texas doesn't want to slow down the death assembly line.....
