My son works for Kentucky State Penitentiary. We were talking last night and he was filling me in on some things where he works. What he told me has me extremely upset and baffled.
There is an inmate on death row there that has had his execution delayed indefinitely because he needs a hip replacement, and no physician will do it.
Another inmate has had his execution delayed because he has Stage 4 cancer and is receiving chemo treatments everyday at tax payers' expense.
Another has had his delayed because he has a heart murmur.
According to my son, the state is not allowed to execute an inmate that "is not in good health."
I have a co-worker that is separated from her husband, receives no support from her estranged husband, has two kids, barely makes enough here to where she can even buy groceries as it gets close to the next payday, YET, she makes too much money to receive any assistance from the state. OH, the estranged husband is "disabled", gets food stamps, AND works for cash on the side.
According to my son, KSP has an annual budget of $32 million.
Am I the only one that sees a problem?
Let the debate.
Later, rednecks.
