Hi Slowwy.

I'm not taking his side, but he isn't a teen. And it is BS the article is labeling him as such. If he is getting the death penalty then he is an adult, so he should be called an enraged adult.

Should they have smashed his head against the concrete? [/Asher is banned]

What exactly does he have to lose?

The only thing I found "disturbing" about that video is the fact we still HAVE the death penalty in this country.

It looked like a situation that could have gotten massively out of hand but was very controlled.

Like someone stated, he got nothing to loose. He could have very easily gone for a gun and started to shoot (One of the reason's I am against firearms in a court room. Don't let them in, but keep an armed officer just outside the room).

Also, he should have been cuffed and shackled. He was already convicted, this was his sentencing hearing. They knew what he was facing and should have taken proper precautions.

What city is that where they can line a freaking courtroom with so many police officers?

edit: Houston, freaking Texas. One where they had enough forsight to staff it like that, but not enough to cuff the felon (which makes me believe that this is somehow a situation where either a state/county law/departmental policy does not allow a convicted felon to be cuffed).

Blaze of glory?

You raped and kill someone you stupid ****.

Have to say had I heard that sentencing I wouldn't have understood what was happening to me. Monotonal and without any pauses for breadth...pfft, I'd have demanded some more theatrics.

It's true. They give us deathrow inmates internet access now. They give them mail, hell some even get visits for shagging, so why not the Internet?

Officers converge on enraged teen after sentencing

With that murderous record of his and such an incredible temper, Dexter Johnson will probably last longer on the Row than he would've on the outside. The average in Texas is, what, 8-10 years? With a little luck, he might yet make it to thirty, yay.
