Death Penalty is now a joke in Texas.

I was on a Jury about 10 years ago. A young man plotted three different times to kill his family, even bought cop killer bullets. The third time his brother and mother was killed... We spent two weeks determining his fate and listening to evidence. The night we were sequestered was one of the worst in my life, no sleep and endless hours of praying and trying to decide between life and death... We found that this man would be a danger to fellow prisoners and even others outside of prison..

Our Governor decided that it was fine to let a man that talked 10 other people, over three different attempts, live. Why did we even have to go through that hell.... I'll never vote for that guy again, let alone forgive him for letting a monster loose to prey on his fellow prisoners and possibly plot the death of his father who was only wounded....
