File under: Not one effing CLUE, he has not.

from the AP wire:

"He made one mistake and now it's costing him his life," said Kenneth Smith, 35, who visited (death row prisoner Kenneth Lee Boyd) with his wife and two children. "A lot of people get a second chance. I think he deserves a second chance."


What was the Boyd's (Smith's father) 'mistake?'

Killing his estranged wife and father-in-law, while their two sons from that marriage were present (one pinned under his mother's body, the other trying to get the gun away from his father). He does not deny having committed the murders.




I hate people. I really do.

I could be wrong, but I read the post as "This is not the kind of thing it is appropriate to describe as a mistake," rather than, well, anything else.

Perhaps the son was referring to getting caught, rather than the murders themselves....
