Hello Everybody,

State sanctioned murder is murder. Right?
What about the state sanctioned murder of a baby killer?
Would that still qualify?
What a guy.
Murdered three government informants and two kiddies.
All by himself.
Truly, he deserves a medal.
Instead, we give him one dose of pentobarbitol.
The same drug vets give to dogs and cats on their last day.
We're so nice.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — A ruthless Iowa meth kingpin who killed five
people, including two young girls, in 1993 to thwart his prosecution
for drug trafficking is set to become the third federal inmate to be
executed this week.

Dustin Honken, 52, would become the first Iowa defendant to be put
to death since 1963 if he is executed as scheduled on Friday. Iowa
abolished the death penalty in 1965, but federal prosecutors sought
to execute Honken for killing government informants and children.

Honken is set to die by lethal injection at the prison in Terre Haute,
Indiana, where he's been on death row since 2005 and two other men have
been put to death since Tuesday after a 17-year hiatus in federal
executions. His appeals to delay the execution have so far been denied.

“He does deserve what he’s getting. I can tell you that. He deserved
it a long time ago,” said Susan Torres, 54, who plans to attend the
execution with other victims' relatives.
