  • Freddie Owens, a South Carolina man, was executed over the 1999 kiling of a convenience store owner, making it the state’s first execution in 13 years. This comes after the South Carolina Supreme Court rejected several requests to stop the execution. » Subscribe to NBC News: / nbcnews

    He murdered his own cellmate in Greenville County jail. He was a rabid dog.

    I don't know if the guy was guilty or not but if new evidence comes in, just as this, there ought to be a stop. People, after lying, sometimes come to
    their senses as they get older and are tired of that weighing on their conscience. That might be a reason why a later confession to lying is not so uncommon.
    Regardless, if there is doubt, you ought to take the time. The justice system is so ridiculous. Sometimes, someone kills another they just get a few years and that's
    it and other times, without concrete evidence get executed.

    Murder is always heinous, but this case is far from the worst of its kind . No one should be executed if there is ANY suggestion of innocence.

    SC is a third world country. Anyone who spends any time in South Carolina, sees very clearly how backwards it is compared to other places in the US. The poverty resulting from the wages being so low, is astounding. But what’s really amazing is how the poor people have come to believe that they are to blame for their lack of success. The schools are crap and it is extremely difficult to succeed in that state. What’s worse is how the poor people have been taught to play their role and blame themselves for being poor. If only they would work harder…Let me add, the schools are horrible. A lot of the HS graduates cannot speak or spell correct English.

    Video title really should clarify that it means "death sentence". Regardless, sounds like it was deserved. If there is literally no doubt about guilt (full yet remorseless confession, video evidence, witness testimony of a survivor of the attack, etc.) and the crime is punishable by death, I have no issue with that outcome.
