Gleason was serving a life sentence. He was not on Death Row.

The inmate he killed was batshit crazy and driving HIM crazy. He begged the guards to move him. The Prison fucked up.

Another one of those precious convicts you are so worried over.

LOL!

Perhaps no one has answered it because it is a ludicrous question.

Your compassion for some convicts flies in the face of your desire to kill other offenders. As such, your question is meaningless.

I submit that it is the most heinous offenders who are in danger of being killed by the other convicts, not the other way around. See Jeffrey Dahmer.

If an inmate commits murder in prison, the criminal justice system deals with him.

Actually he's saying that now.

For seven days, Robert Gleason Jr. begged correctional officers and counselors at Wallens Ridge State Prison to move his new cellmate. The constant singing, screaming and obnoxious behavior were too much, and Gleason knew he was ready to snap.

On the eighth day — May 8, 2009 — correctional officers found 63-year-old Harvey Gray Watson Jr. bound, gagged, beaten and strangled. His death went unnoticed for 15 hours because correctional officers had falsified inmate counts at the high-security prison in southwestern Virginia.

Now, Gleason says he'll kill again if he isn't put to death for killing Watson, who had a history of mental illness. And he says his next victim won't be an inmate.

murder is murder either way you look at it. i kill someone intentionally, the government has to justify killing me for a "purpose".. still the act of taking someones life.

Prisons are dangerous and violent places.

That was already established. :-P

What has not been established is that your garden-variety convicts are any more threatened when the Capital Offenders are handed sentences of Life without the possibility of Parole.

I am always fascinated by those who espouse the death penalty. Without exception, those who are for the death penalty are also for smaller and less expensive government on every level. The problem is that the death penalty is very very expensive, it costs far more than a lifetime of incarceration to have the state (or feds) kill someone. Of course those types may well say "don't give them appeal after appeal and chance after chance". If we don't then we more and more likely risk killing an innocent man - and those same folk, invariably don't believe in "killing the innocent" (abortion). It is not prudent to for the state to execute and I don't like knowing that they kill on my behalf.

That is an irrelevent question, state sanctioned killing has nothing to do with risk management, it has to do with its understanding of justice (or as has been stated, retribution). We could reduce the risk of theft by killing thieves, after all, who is to say they won't steal in prison?

Innocent people have went to jail. Should we do away with them too?

I firmly believe in the death penalty. In fact they should make them available on PPV TV with the proceeds going to the victim's family. Also, they should have a lottery scratch off ticket. Get 3 skull & crossbones in a row and you get to throw the switch.

As far as innocent people being executed. It's still for the greater good of humanity. There is collateral damage in all aspects of life. This is just another example

FRY THE BASTARDS!!!

So you wouldn't feel too bad if your girlfriend or sister was framed, sent to jail and finally executed because...well.. it's all in the best interest of "humanity"?
