can''t believe i had to scroll down to the end to find out what state this all happened in. why couldn''t the fool reporter just write the whole word "mississippi" down instead of just "miss."? what a horrible reporter. who the heck knows what "miss." stands for: missouri, mississipi, misshigan? okay, just kidding on the last one but still, i''m warning the next reporter who writes about mississippi - WRITE THE WHOLE *** NAME IN THE ARTICLE OR ELSE i''m leaving another angry comment!

If it takes him till 70 years old, he will kill again. No matter how much he convinces you or anyone else. Governors do not know the human mind well enough to make these decisions and should never be placed in this position.
Anyway, glad I don''t live in Mississippi and don''t plan on going there anytime soon.

Another case in point supporting the idea that there should be a civilian review board for pardons and such.
11 people pulled from the jury pool to "countersign" pardons.

Sounds like the governor and the trustee had some interesting conversations.

I worked as a Police and Fire dispatcher in IL for 10 yrs. We arrested a man who had committed a brutal attack on the night clerk of a local hotel with a tire iron fracturing her scull and arms as she tried to defend herself. He was later apprehended and tried to struggle the gun away from a officer on a traffic stop, he fled and was finally apprehended again. When running a background check on him it was discovered that he had served only 7 years for murdering his wife and was working as a janitor at Argonne National Labs, a government facility when he was arrested. They either failed to do a background check or hired him anyway. Sad that women''s lives seem to be worth so little to so many, esp politicians. Now a local police officer is suspected of murdering not one but two of his wives, his 3rd wife whom he divorced and was found dead in a empty bathtub and his 4th wife has been missing for about 10 months now. Strange huh? There was another wife that disappeared in a Plainfield, IL and she has never been found either but have no evidence to convict her husband but it''s a given he most likely killed her. On the day when they were searching the wooded area''s he didn''t bother to join in the search. Nice guy huh, and this was the mother of his children.

Another Republican Govenor that needs a swift kick to the curb. Impeach the moron. The killer was a trustee at his mansion? Are you kidding me!
Sounds like a FAVOR WAS REPAID

This Governor is obviously a very sick man, and harbors much hate towards women. I think he feels woman deserve to be killed by their husbands, because he feels it always the womans fault. This man should not be Gov. of any state! AND SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE IMMEDIATELY, IF NOT SOONER! THIS SITUATION SHOULD NOT GO UNCHECKED'' GOVERNORS LIKE THIS ARE DANGEROUS TO OUR COUNTRY.

Time heals all wounds except for the victim. They may never recover.

The victim should have the final say, and if the victim is dead, that should be the final say, and this con should stay incarcerated.
