When you lose in the trial for the right for your own life, what else do you sacrifice until that time that your life ceases? And we are no longer natural born members of the human family? Is it not enough for you to simply kill me? (Michael L McBride, 11th March 2000.) read more Debased Guard Behaviour and Abuse Escalates Pending Death Row Transfers: By Michael L McBride My experience of the death penalty and capital punishment objectively began in October of 1985. I say objectively because subsequently I was not fully and completely aware of what could be considered most of the ramification and consequence of having been sentenced to death until two or three years after I was removed to the Texas death row housing section of the Ellis One Prison Unit in Huntsville, Texas. At the time of my conviction and sentencing I was numb, if only from the experience and trauma of the trial. Must I mention that the loss of my beloved and friend? What with the presentation of evidence and statements of government witnesses, all hell-bent on seeing that I receive the death penalty? I can't think of any person in this generation who has not been slandered or libeled if not simply berated and belittled. The hurt, as bad as it may be, is nothing in comparison to the effect of being made to sit and listen to such a monstrous conspiracy designed and with great effort carried through all for the purposes of killing you. It's incredible to look at all the resources devoted to that intent and grasp that they're tying rope to hang you while you watch them.

The day before, the Governor of Maryland had put a temporary halt to executions in his state, joining what many believe is a swelling tide of government restraint that could see the death penalty eliminated in the United States, not in one grand gesture, but state by state, act by humanitarian act. "It's much more than a blip," Dennis Elliott of the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty said in an interview yesterday. "The entire terrain on which the debate is being waged has shifted. Now the death-penalty proponents have to defend a system that is irreparably broken.

    Extractions: Campagna Internazionale Los Angeles Times COMMENTARY Abolish the Death Penalty for Youths By VINCENT SCHIRALDI Three U.S. Supreme Court justices have said that the court should consider abolishing the death penalty for people who committed their offenses as minors, setting up the juvenile death penalty as the newest frontier in our nation's debate over capital punishment. "Given the apparent consensus that exists among the states and in the international community against the execution of a capital sentence imposed on a juvenile offender," Justice John Paul Stevens wrote, "I think it would be appropriate to revisit the issue at the earliest possible opportunity." Justices Stephen G. Breyer and Ruth Bader Ginsburg agreed. Over the last three years, aside from the United States, only Pakistan, Iran and the Republic of Congo have executed juvenile offendershardly the kind of human rights company we should be keeping.

    Extractions: A majority of states have recognized that putting people to death for crimes they committed as children is contrary to our evolving standards of decency. Of the thirty-eight states that retain the death penalty, twenty-three permit its imposition on juvenile offenders. Of those twenty-three states, only sixteen have juvenile offenders on their death rows. And of those sixteen states, only seven have actually carried out executions of child offenders since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976. In Arizona, Florida, Indiana, and several other states that now permit the execution of juvenile offenders, legislatures are considering measures that would restrict the death penalty to adult offenders. The Montana legislature passed such a measure in 1999. Similarly, juvenile offenders charged with federal crimes may not be sentenced to death, with the narrow exception of those charged in U.S. military courts.

    Extractions: In August 2000, the UN Sub-Commission on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights resolved that the execution of people who were under the age of 18 at the time of the crime "is contrary to customary international law." A principle of customary international law is a general practice accepted as law. It is binding on all countries, regardless of which treaties they have or have not ratified. When the U.S. ratified the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) in 1992, it entered a reservation to Article 6, which prohibits the use of the death penalty for those who were under the age of 18 at the time of the crime. Numerous European countries have voiced their objection to this U.S. reservation on the grounds that it is incompatible with the Covenant's object and purpose.

    Extractions: Tuesday, January 28, 2003; Page A04 The Supreme Court announced yesterday that it will not hear a constitutional challenge to capital punishment for juvenile offenders, a decision that implies the court will not soon strike down state laws permitting the execution of felons who were 16 or 17 at the time of their crimes. The court's refusal to hear the case of Scott Allen Hain, 32, who is on death row in Oklahoma for his role in the kidnapping, robbery and murder of a Tulsa couple 15 years ago, came without comment or recorded dissent, as is customary. But legal analysts said recent events at the court suggest that, in the internal battle over the issue, those who favor eliminating the death penalty for juveniles have been defeated, at least for now. In October, the court refused to hear a case brought by Kentucky death row inmate Kevin Nigel Stanford. Four justices John Paul Stevens, David H. Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen G. Breyer signed a dissenting opinion, saying that juveniles lack the maturity to warrant the ultimate criminal sanction and that the court should have intervened to stop what they called a "shameful practice." Normally, four votes are enough to grant a hearing, but because it came up through a little-used legal channel known as original habeas corpus, Stanford's case would have required five votes.

    Extractions: Napoleon Beazley and two others approached a Texas couple one night in 1994 in their driveway, demanding keys to their Mercedes. In the haunting moments that followed, Beazley transformed himself from a popular and bright 17-year-old with no criminal record and a promising future to a murderer destined for death row. The youth hadn't planned on killing anyone when they set out looking for a car to heist. But their carjacking turned tragic the moment Beazley panicked and fired two shots into the head of 63-year-old John Luttig as the war veteran's wife looked on. One of Beazley's co-offenders, who provided the evidence that convicted and sent Beazley to death row, also remarked in an affidavit that Beazley was immediately remorseful and had to be talked out of committing suicide. Experience and common sense say that many adolescents haven't completely developed control of their actions. That assessment is given credence by scientific studies showing how pre-frontal brain tissue governing impulse and emotion continues developing into the early 20s. As horrible as the acts teenagers commit might be, this science suggests

    Extractions: A very hot topic concerning the death penalty is the age at wish this punishment may be imposed. People under the age of 18 are legally considered to be juveniles. Juveniles are not spared in the United States legal system. The United States is one of only six countries with recorded executions of child offenders since 1990. The only other countries which have recorded executions include Iran, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen which has recently outlawed capital punishment. Since 1990, nineteen people who committed crimes under the age of eighteen have been executed. The US accounts for ten of those nineteen executions. Heath Wilkins was sixteen at the time he stabbed and killed Nancy Allen during a robbery. He was convicted and sentenced to die less than a year later. The jury decided that he committed an adult crime and should be punished accordingly. In his many appeals, Wilkins’s lawyer argued that he had been abused severely as a child and that he was in a psychotic state at the time of the murder. The prosecutor argued that Wilkins was aware of committing the murder and he should be punished for his crime regardless of whether or not he was a juvenile basically saying that Wilkins committed an adult crime and should be punished as an adult. Don Nardo made a good point when he said:
