Missouri executes man after US Supreme Court denies request for a delay

Johnson -- who was convicted of robbing a gas station and murdering three clerks nearly 27 years ago -- was pronounced dead at 6:11 p.m. CT after the administration of a lethal injection, according to Karen Pojmann, communications director for the Missouri Department of Corrections. The petition from Johnson's lawyers, which was submitted to Justice Brett Kavanaugh, argued that the 61-year-old had"presented overwhelming evidence" of his intellectual disability.

"Read More"The state is prepared to deliver justice and carry out the lawful sentence Mr. Johnson received in accordance with the Missouri Supreme Court's order," Republican Gov. Mike Parson said.The US Supreme Court had previously ruled against Johnson in May, when he had sought to have his execution carried out by firing squad over fears that the state's lethal injection protocol would likely produce excruciating seizures because of his brain tumor.

How can prolifers allow this to happen? Right, I forgot he's not white...

Good

Well where blm

🥺🥺🥺

Justice served. He killed 3 people. The death penalty exists as a deterrent, and a penalty, for murders.

A crime cannot be treated with another crime!

He killed three people and now he.suffered the consequences

Killing people to show killing people is wrong. America...

Dude brutally murdered 3 people with a hammer.....

people may not like taking life but this man took a innocent life to not punish him with the most sever penalty man can give sends a message to others that if you take a life you will be held accountable.there is no rehabilitation here its cruel to let these people linger in jail

The Pro-Life majority Supreme Court.

Mr. Johnson's claim that he is not competent to be executed has been reviewed and rejected by a jury and the courts six different times, including a unanimous decision by the Missouri Supreme Court. + Supreme Court Case close. He murdered 3 clerks 27 years ago in robbery

''He did the crime. , now do the time '. Oh well 🤨

What about breaking into his mind it's•| like hacking a computer..hugeFlooded des souris dans La gueule du chat Interrogatoire faire avoue Quand La pression monte, Les aveux pleuvent..! Junior influençables..

This man got what he deserved. He lived on death row while tax papers paid for him. After he did that heretic act. You tell there family about pro life. Evidently you people have know I'd how it is to lose family to a monster like that.

Justice served their are consequences, if you commit a crime against innocent people and cause death or life injuries, it time to pay the piper, you weren't disable when you used that claw hammer on these innocents souls, lord bless those 3 people, may they RIP.VETNATION.

I struggle here. We say”intellectual disability” but he knew enough to steal the money and hide the bodies. Someone said he had the mind of a 4 year old. We do not let 4 year olds work at the general store. We say “was he mentally stable?” Obviously not he viciously killed 3

Who they should be executing is those yahoos from US Capitol on Jan 6th. Will probably get less than a slap on the hand. Hell, they're trying to deny the shit even happened. Talk about disgusting!

No wonder the US-SC is filled with very,very 'pro life' persons.

Not very pro life are you, Missouri?

'Show Me' State Depravity...

Apparently the murderer isn't the only one with an intellectual disability, based on some of these comments.

A brutal medieval punishment. Horrific. AbolishTheDeathPenalty

Please help me! My name is Lin donglong, an employee of China telecom fuzhou branch. Company manager huang fei (communist party of China) organized the leadership of the gang of evil forces brutal persecution: surveillance location, insult,abuse, framed to take nude photos of me

OMG the Supreme Court are murderers

Let me take a guess- The Supreme Court is pro-life?

He will never kill again!

Oh gee, that's too bad, BUT, look on the bright side.....He's gone, and it's one less piece of flotsam, that to bother anyone, again!!!!

I understand prison but I don’t understand telling a community not to kill, but then kill. It just seems backwards.

Was it his lack of speech skills that caused him to murder 3?

Barbaric

Good. If this man had the sense enough to know that both stealing and killing was wrong and he was convicted of both, he deserves to have his punishment fulfilled.

I knew they would...They cant see beyond their noses, as you get older you know KARMA is real

Did u show the same when it was a WHITE MAN?.. U create division like a prostitute has abortions !

Did this guy leave a slice of pie in his cell to eat after the execution? I remember when former Gov. Bill 'Slick Willie!' Clinton executed a man that dumb.

Good night, murderer

The US is a vicious and primitive country to allow this to be policy

I'on care how dumb he is... He killed 3 innocent ppl during a robbery... Crime like that, u should have to pay with ur life... Only part I would change is don't make him sit in jail for 27 yrs before u execute... Give his ass 2-3 yrs of appeals then let's pull the plug.

What was he condemned for ?

He killed people brutally, consequences come thats life..

Sirhan Sirhan and John Hinkley Jr. right now

consequences nothing personal

He murdered 3 innocent people in cold blood, no sympathy 🤷🏿‍♀.

You Pro-life people, you definitely haven’t walked in the shoes of a family that have lost someone you love to a killer!! Try walking in their shoes!!

Absolutely atrocious

When it is no doubt that a person committed a crime , when are we going to stop feeling sorry for the criminal and start feeling sorry for the victim and their family? The criminal was given years of life, what was his victim and their family given?

Yet Casey Anthony is walking around…… mind blowing

Well, that settles that then, doesn't it! If you are sentenced to death, you die, even if you are innocent! It's happened before! So, if you are a person of color, don't even get a speeding ticket! They will charge you with every unsolved crime since JFK!

Their blood ...sleep well on that pro-life fight

Rome 2021

Not often do you see white folks not getting their stay of execution

What did he do?

thanks

My guy lookin confused

I don't understand execution? If a criminal plea bargains, they get life? Why do they get life? If they admit they're murder's,they can live? If it's a $$$ issue, Deathrow inmates cost millions more to tax payers! It makes NO SENSE!

Even the devil takes idiots 😂😂

Da , 2+2 =6 Da, I am smart, not anymore SUCKER! 😂😂😂😂

DAMN!! I certainly hope nobody in this state claims they’re pro-life

Wait how did they find him competent to stand trial at all? Fetal alcohol syndrome and missing 20% of his brain? Am I missing something?

JoeBiden kills several children in Afghanistan and he is allowed to live, but this man gets executed. The US justice system is legislated for the rich and powerful but Yahw.h will bring justice. RepKimSchrier The death penalty and all prisons must be eliminated. TheDemocrats

But women can’t have abortions what the fuck?

Pro-life right?

I thought Missouri was pro life. Oh wait

The majority pro-life hypocrites. If you’re pro-birth judt say that

Republicans are NOT pro life.

abolish the death penalty
