Hours before her scheduled execution, the DOC announced scheduling complications due to weather called for a postponement of the execution until Monday.
According to CNN, the DOC spokeswoman Gwendolyn Hogan said in an email, "due to weather and associated scheduling issues," they had to reschedule. Did mother nature snow in the executioner? Was there a power outage to old sparky? Did the FedEx truck driver carrying the killer drugs veer off the icy road and plunge to his own unnatural death?
How cruel it is to have this woman prepare for her death, eat her last meal, say her last words and then hours before the moment, claim a scheduling SNAFU and give her a few days more? How sick is that? Kelly will die Monday, while Greg Owen, the man who beat her husband with a nightstick and stabbed him in the neck 10 times lives on.
Fuck! I read the first line and was elated for a second. Then as I read on, I realized it was the same information I heard on Thursday. I had the same reaction. Let us hope a miracle happens on the 25th hour.
ReplyDeleteRest in Peace, Kelly. "Justice" can be so cruel sometimes.
