CONNECTICUT RESTORES JUSTICE
For the first time in 45 years, a convicted killer was executed in New England.
It was death by lethal injection for Michael Ross who murdered and raped four female victims in the 1980's. Ross additionally said he killed four others in Connecticut and New York State. We will not need additional trials for these additional violated young women.
Before Ross' execution at 2:25 this morning (5/13) the usual crowd of liberals and others lacking spines paraded outside the Osborne Prison in Somers with their candles and placards.
Here is the one tiny item in favor of killer Ross: Ross himself had instructed attorneys and others to put him to death as soon as possible. Against his wishes, lawyers appealed his execution order to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Court agreed with Ross and refused to intervene in Ross' date with his Maker.
Thus, killer Ross had a better sense of justice than the pathetic crowd of protesters who gathered outside the prison walls that held him.
The liberal press is filled with usual outrage this morning. After all, the pundits are shouting, this might mean a breakdown of what they call "the psychological and political barriers against capital punishment."
Yes, Lord, let's hope so, for the sake of all the women and kids still unraped and unmurdered.
In one of the legal attempts to stop the Ross execution, the killer's father attempted to make the case that if Ross was put to death it would lead to many suicides among Connecticut's prison population.
We can only HOPE that this might be true. Just think of the possibilities. Killers brought to justice for rape and murder. Future killers thinking long and hard before following Ross' example. And the encouraging possibility that the prison population might dwindle, thus saving the good people who pay all the bills a lot of money.
Thank you, Connecticut.
And peace and final rest to the victims of Ross' raping and killing.
