Totally and the sooner the better. A dull knife would be preferable.

That was the story of Steven Titus. Southland Sales Rep. I knew Steve from work. I lived blocks from where the "crime" was commited.
So, the Port of Seattle did the investigation. Are the Nigerian police capable of doing a investigation and coming to a better conclusion?

Upon viewing Edward Lee King’s photo, the victim who had identified Titus began to cry and said, “Oh my God, what have I done to Mr. Titus?” Judge Johnson overturned Titus’s conviction and dismissed the charges against him. After the dismissal, Titus stated that he had lost everything. “I lost my fiancée because I spent so much time dwelling on this, and I’ve changed. I’m not the person she knew. I lost my job, my family lost their savings, $9,000. I owe $3,000 to my attorney.”

In 1982, Paul Henderson was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his investigative reporting regarding Titus’s case. Titus filed a $20 million lawsuit against the Port of Seattle alleging wrongdoing that led to his wrongful conviction. The lawsuit accused Port of Seattle Officer Ronald A. Parker of gross negligence and intentional disregard for the constitutional rights of Titus. However, Titus, who was in his mid-30’s, died of a heart attack on February 2, 1985 while the case was pending. Several months later, Titus’s lawsuit was settled out of court, and his teenage son, Ken Titus, was awarded $2.8 million in damages on behalf of his father.

That won't prevent them from using broomsticks or bottles or their fingers. Better you should have the death sentence. Or, maybe something else.

Works for me!! And very appropriate punishment, biblically appropriate as well. Cut off that which causes you to sin.

What of the suspect has been framed? You don't think that happens? Like the death penalty. It's a bitch if you've got the wrong guy.
