Prosecutors to seek Death Penalty for Gosnell – UPDATED

[Casino67]

TheAnchoress:

Prosecutors in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania announced today they will seek the death penalty for abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell, who faces charged related to killing a woman in a botched abortion and killing babies infanticides.” [. . .] prosecutors notified his attorney, Jack McMahon, that they will seek death by lethal injection if a jury finds Gosnell guilty of first-degree murder in the counts he faces. Gosnell faces a third-degree murder charge related to the death of 41-year-old Karnamaya Mongar from a botched abortion Gosnell performed. Mongar died November 20, 2009, after overdosing on anesthetics prescribed by the doctor.

As those who get their news from alternative sources, and not the mainstream media may remember, Gosnell did a lot more than botch an abortion

What Gosnell is charged with will never match what he appears to have done, but, quite properly, prosecutors can only go by evidence.

I've struggled with this one.

 

Reading the Gosnell grand jury indictments [on PDF] is a ghoulish trip through a particular kind of hell; but thinking beyond that, to the type of establishment he ran, the people he brought into the crime, the manner of his callous taking of defenseless lives and his taking of "trophies".......scream for retribution. It is serial murder.

 

It is God's right to cast him into hell, or....not; but as a society, is a long prison sentence with no hope of getting out [making him think for the rest of the time he draws a breath, about those he casually snuffed after taking their first few] better than a lethal injection?

 

Which is more cruel?

 

Which does he merit?

 

We certainly are required to pay for his health & welfare, while he slowly rots......which seems sadistic.

 

By faith, I am told that it's not right to take life in this situation; denying Gosnell repentence & salvation.
