Pity the innocent children. So sad.

Hell is waiting for him.

This guy should be put in the center of a prison yard among inmates who know what he did as the guards turn their backs and let whatever happens ensue

An open and shut case with confession. Why bother the courts and public for decades? SouthCarolina , get it done next week. DeathPenalty

How could anyone do that..

I’m okay with this.

People, this is why we have a death penalty.

I know this sounds a bit gruesome but you know how I feel about people that abuse/kill children they should have a guillotine for limbs take one limb at a time two minute break after each and on strike of the 10th minute Head falls in basket Obviously I believe they should suffer

do it!

The gallows would be appropriate

beware: this death sentence is also for their political anti-abortion rhetoric... watch 'em

I’m 100% behind this decision That said..... some moms have twice this many abortions and they left applauds them.

Good

Good

Kill him right then and there... sorrynotsorry

I am not a proponent of the DeathPenalty but if anyone deserves it, it’s this guy. Those poor children 👶😢

Yep .... next case.

Good

Although against it, every now and then I realize there is no other punishment that'd fit the crime. Fuck that guy.

Outstanding!!!.

that is heinous, but i will never be convinced that killing people proves that killing people is wrong. a civilized society does not execute its citizens. don't believe me? look at whose company we keep in that dept. how many innocent people have we executed?

Death Penalty is too good for him. Solder him in a cell with no windows. Douse him with gas. Roast him a bit then douse it. Go a few days or weeks & repeat. Some more severe than others. Let him beg to die but deny it.

The people who advocate killing of babies, aka abortion, deserve worse.

Seems like an easy verdict to reach to me

Can they torture him first?

Only death penalty?

They should pull out his fingers and toes one at a time!

The people working at PPFA deserve worse.

good...

All for the death penalty but something tells me he'd be brutalized and treated like a human toilet in prison so I say leniency. Let him suffer for life.

That’s a good thing he doesn’t deserve to be alive not on taxpayers money

The msm loves to use these kinds of stories to manipulate public opinion. The fact is African Americans are hugely disproportionately falsely convicted. The death penalty would kill innocent people and let the guilty run free.

What drives a person to kill their own kids? Fucked up man.

Good

Evangelicals disheartened. It's not like he had an abortion. Ease up on him.

No.

They need to necklace this dude; the needle is way too kind.

Whatever someone has done, no death penalties should be.

I say keep him alive in solitary confinement for life and pipe in the screams of dying children 24 he's a day till he goes insane.

I'm sure the mother of the children was just devastated. 🙄 I know she's going through a lot right now & probably not making the wisest decisions, but it makes my skin crawl to think of her defending this man and/or fighting for his life.
