California’s Death Penalty
- Share via
In response to Dan Morain’s article “A Precise Procedure for Killing,” April 11:
Over the past several months we have seen countless articles on the upcoming execution of condemned killer Robert Alton Harris. Yet we have seen few if any on his victims and victims’ families.
Criminal Justice Prof. Robert Johnson of American University in Washington calls the death penalty process “disturbingly, even chillingly, dispassionate.” I wonder what he would call the coldblooded murder of Harris’ two 16-year-old victims?
I believe the only process that has been “disturbing, chilling and dispassionate” has been the delay in carrying out the death penalty of Harris.
