Some guy got the death penalty in Texas because he drove a car in which a murderer made his escape. I dont know the guy's name and the details are a bit sketchy but the murderer went off and shot someone, went back to the car and they drove away. According to the testimony of the other people in the car, the driver didn't even know what the murderer was doing. But even if he did know the guy had just shot someone, what would you do if a murderer with a gun was telling you to drive?

Re: Texas to Commit Murder in 3 Weeks
That guy really got boned if he was tried, convicted, and sentenced to die based on no evidence whatsoever. Maybe you should CHECK YOUR FACTS, thanks.Originally posted by Berzerker

So Wiglaf would have laughed at the armed murderer telling him to drive
He drove the getaway car, knowingly or not...That guy really got boned if he was tried, convicted, and sentenced to die based on no evidence whatsoever.
Strange, its all I have and it shows quite well the pitfalls of executing people for what someone else did.That's a whole lot of nothing there when it comes to information, Berz.Comment

You are so full of **** it stinks.
If a guy with a gun who just murdered someone told me to drive, I'm going to drive and once I get to 20 mph, dive out of the driver's side. I think that goes without saying, now provide link so we can all see how simplistic your reading of this case is.

If he was an accomplice, then it's a matter for your legislature to decide what penalty he should receive.
If not, the state is committing murder, obviously.
Clearly the court found that he was an accomplice despite the testimony of these witnesses."You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James NapierComment

You provide no details, no context. There is no point to this thread because of that.Yup, goes without saying. Oh the irony...Last edited by Wiglaf; August 10, 2007, 03:52.Comment

CALIFORNIA JURY FREES MURDERER
Some famous man who shot and murdered his wife was set free by a jury. Apparently, the prosecutor was holding a glove that did not fit the defendant, so he was let free.
Is this justice? To ask a meaningless hypothetical, what would you do if you were in a courtroom and the glove had, in fact, fit you?
Discuss.Comment
