St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell, a Democrat, last week declined Taylor's request for a hearing before a judge, stating the "facts are not there to support a credible case of innocence.


Republicans, amirite?

right, it can still happen. and like i said 16 people still die, 570 people in texas alone live.

do you agree that it does matter to get rid of it in the states it's legal now that you know the numbers? if not, why?


Your argument seems to be, if states abolish the death penalty, a lot fewer people will die. I don't dispute this. However this is irrelevant because my goal is not to try and reduce the number of deaths.

whether you're pro or anti death penalty it matters, objectively, because it reduces the deaths by thousands. either it matters because u think its good, or bad. but the number of less dead people matters regardless of your position.

so what's your goal?

that being that thousands less dying doesnt matter because a few dozen still die. not your opinion of course, just your perception.

It doesn't matter to me in the sense that it's not something I gave thoughts to. It's not because I love it when more people die.

Bell said he would support a stay of execution (several months) “so his counsel may further investigate the time that the victims died.”

Republican Gov. Mike Parson denied a clemency request on Monday, dismissing Taylor's “self-serving claim of innocence.”

That's it .
