Are you kidding me? Execute him and be done with it. The man deserves it. He shot and killed many people, corrupted a young boy's life and made him into a killer, and terrorized thousands of people. Sick or not I do not think it is fair for the taxpayers to put him up for the rest of his life. And people may feel differently, but I do not think that mental illness is a crutch to keep people from serving out whatever sentence they are given. Honestly do you think Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy were all there when they killed. I do not think anyone who commits horrible henious crimes are all there. They can't be and yet they do deserve to die. I think any less is throwing justice in the face of the victims and their families. I wonder how differently this juror would feel if it was her parent, sibling, spouse or child that was shot at random for no other reason than pleasue for the killer. FRY HIS ****!

There is nothing innocent about this man. 9 out of 10 murderers on death row claim to have mental illness. This man is a brutal killer and deserves to die. My taxpayers dollars should not be paid to feed and house him for the rest of his life. Sorry Ms. Young, justice will be served for the innocent people he killed, as soon as the injection takes effect.

Is that juror on drugs? This man murdered many people leaving behind loved ones. He deserved to die REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE F**KING LAWS ARE. If the governor cancels the execution, then that governor NEEDS to be impeached. Let that SOB die NOW!

While as a general rule i am against the death penalty as that i personaly feel that it is just politicaly movatied in a lot of caes an the procutures an lawyers can an do sometime make the bones on death penalty cases.But in this particular case from what i have read an know of it from the press an the televison articles on it i personaly feel that because of the fear an terror that he created in the area an across this country that the us supreme court should definetly allow this sentence to be carried out as sentenced. thank you

She has been likely targeted by representatives of Muhammad's defense team to reconsider her vote. They have presented her with one sided evidence and probably applied the "because of your vote, a man will be put to death next week" statement as an emotional pressure tactic. The only thing that is relevant is the juror's decision while serving on the jury at the criminal trial six years ago. At that time, Muhammad's brain evidence was disallowed because he REFUSED to participate in an examination by experts on behalf of the Commonwealth.
Muhammad is a sick man, but knew the wrongfulness of what he was doing and had the ability to conjure up a pretty chilling and undetectable way of slaughtering people at random and terrorizing the populace at large. Clemency will be denied and he will die next week.

This mans mental health is not the issue here, he knew right from wrong. He made a conscious effort to cut the hole in the back of the car to fire the gun. He knew what he was doing. Justice will be served when this man takes his final breath, but even lethal injection is way to easy and sophisticated for this savage. He should die by the same as he inflicted

Now you can support him for the rest of your life with your hard earned taxes dumb ****. I bet he wasn't schizo at the time he planned each execution of those innocent people. Maybe you should feel what its like to get shot and maybe you will change you mind. Apparently your one of those bleeding heart liberals who are screwing up our country. Just deserts is what this man should get. When God said you shall not kill, what do you think he was referring dumb ****. Eliminate the problem from you tents, and you will all leave in peace. Maybe you need to get your head examined.

As a Christian I am appalled that the USA still kills it citizens. No one but God has the right to take life and I can't believe some states still carry out judicial murder. Here in the UK there is always the possibility of redemption and salvation and when we read of these dreadful murders, we know that the chances are that this individual's mental health state was seriously affected by the childhood abuse they suffered. Being abused as a child is not an excuse for a life of crime but we need to understand the consequences of what may happen if an abused child doesn't receive the help and support they need and deserve.
I am praying that this man's sentence is commuted and that we, on both sides of the Atlantic, can look at better ways of preventing abuse and its dire consequences. God bless our two great countries.

Great that you have more Freedom of Speech in a US blog, than in the UK! By the way how is that ridiculous tax on your electronic products Tv, Radios etc, working out?

You guys need a tea party to save yourself from the King's taxes!

Hey Yeap
We can say what we like in the UK, much like over there but the media won't always print it.....hence the beauty of this new technology. And you're right. We are taxed to the eyballs but no one starves and everyone has the right to a roof over their head, unless they choose otherwise..........unlike half the world's population who don't have such choices. Have a great weekend and count your blessings!

I will never forget the fear and sheer terror I felt everytime I left my home with my daughter. This man took innocent people's lives and invoked a feeling of terror that I have never before felt. I've no doubt he knew exactly what he was doing and probably had a sense of pleasure with each innocent victim's death. I can't even believe he writes in his letter..."Muhammad goes on to say police and prosecutors are murdering an innocent black man." What a bunch of nonsense!! Seriously, he thinks he is now innocent of any crime. I hope his execution goes forward as scheduled and provides some sense of justice for those who lost their loved ones.

Well, next Tuesday, Mr. Muhammad receives the cure for his disease. At around 9:30pm he'll be feeling much better and won't have that nasty schizophrenic problem to deal with anymore.
