  I think four or five guys in the prison, should Rape him and CUT HIS Throat when they are done with him. He didn't care who he hurt. Boo Hoo Boo Hoo

  I said yes they should find an alternative, meaning, hanging, firing squad, whatever it takes. He wasn't worried about that when he did the crimes.

  I think that they should try two lethal injections and if they indeed don't work properly then just take him out back and shoot him until he is dead. It shouldn't be his choice. He gave no choice or mercy to the people he killed.

  Aren't some of the suggestions like "heal him so we can kill him better?" That is silly. Pump some carbon monoxide into a cell and let him sleep forever. Don't tell him ahead of time and he won't feel a thing. That is why it is a common choice for suicides.

  I said 'no', but give mercy, count ten, then execute him anyway. The way he doesn't want. How about give him a choice? The lethal, or turn him over to the families? You know, "do unto others as that other done unto it's victims."

  For once I agree with all of you. If he is too fat for a needle let me and and my .44 mag do the job for free, 2morrow!! I'll find a vein or he will die while I'm trying.

  A good old firing squad should fix his fat a$$ up...

  Harry: I like your style. Hanging was "good enough" for Hussein.

  He claims his suffering might be inhumane, what was humane about the abduction, rape, choking and bludgeoning of his victims 14 years ago.

  First of all bullets can bounce off him then what? Someone else could get hurt because of his sorry behind. Second, is he a medical doctor, that he can make such a claim?

  Shoot him already! What a waste of money for them to even debate the issue. If he was a good person he would not be in this situation.

  Good excuse for by, but lame.There is a Dr. present who can certainly get an IV inserted into his vein. Excuse #101?

  I voted yes...Since he raped and killed 2 young girls and now claims he is too fat for an injection, then hit him between the eyes with a 35 lb sledge hammer and there will be no need to look for a vein...

  The question asks, "Should they find another method of execution?" As long as he's executed, who cares how it's done?

  Being morbidly obese would be an ABSOLUTE ADVANTAGE if he were to be hanged. mmmmmmmmmm

  He needs to be moved to that outdoor jail in Texas and made to wear pink. When he gets down to the proper size,inject him for half the dosage and save $$$$$$!

  What was wrong with the firing squad. What a way to go....

  He wants mercy forget it!! His victims didn't receive any!

  What the heck...these are murderers rapists and such ...and society shoiuld treat them like that they deserve no mercy, where was the pity for his victims...that's what I thought execute them all and to heck with being humane.

  Maybe they could introduce him to "Old Sparky" or starve him until he's small enough to find his veins.
   - Submitted By: Rachel
 
   
  Yes. An alternative method is acceptable. Hanging or firing squad or the way in whch he murdered his victim is in order.

  Just as a person who needs medical treatment can have his or her dosage adjusted, so too can this man have his execution dosage adjusted. Perhaps his size is as a result of stealing other inmates' meals or commissary food items. As a former employee within the state prison system, I know he didn't get that big on just what is served alone. Perhaps spending more time participating in the recreational activities would have helped as well. Lack of control seems to be an ongoing problem for him.

  At least he isn't crying innocent, which implies admition of guilt. He deserves no mercy, no special treatment, no sympathy. Just get a bigger needle, find a big vein and shoot away. Our justice system sometimes seems to bend over backwards for the criminals and forget about the suffering of the innocent victims. This creep is just trying to delay his execution.

  duh, use more drugs!! or better yet, put him on a strict diet, save us taxpayers some money on food!!!

  Did this monster care about what reaction his actions would have on the victim or the victims family so. I could care less about the reaction the lethal dose does or does not do to him.
   - Submitted By: Annette
 
   
  You do the crime you do the time. He inflicted pain on his victim so why have pity for him. He did not care or he would have done the crime for which he was sentenced to death. Take it like a man !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   - Submitted By: Sheila
 
   
  Being blindfolded and shot did the job for centuries. Just do it. How much mercy did he show to the victims? "Justice" is merely a concept. God save us from ACTIVIST judges!!
   - Submitted By: Rachael
 
   
  I voted no! All they need to do is place the needle in in a larger/ major artery and administer a larger dose according to the criminals weight! These scumbags didn't care about the pain they inflicted on those they killed(and the victims loved ones), but they whine and try everything to get out of it when it's payback time! What whimps!
