as a nurse i find agreeing with the death penalty very difficult in principle as it goes against most of what my job is about, however i know how i would feel if it were my little girl that b@stard had raped and murdered.

Ive looked after a couple of sex offenders, one i found quite creepy, i was dead shocked to see im working as a cleaner in a shopping centre near to where i live recently, probably with access to the ladies toilets etc..

i quite like the usa system of being able to track where these people live, im not so sure it would work in the uk though

While I am not 'anti death penalty', I certainly hope he gets the most horrible punishment possible- which from my perspective would mean locked up forever in a cage, with big bubb'as 12'' schlong pounding him every night....or in solitary confinement for the rest of his days. If they give him the needle/chair however I would not object either.

He took the life of an innocent 9 year old in an absolutly disgusting way. The family of that child probably feel like their lives have ended also.

An eye for an eye?. Why should he be able to live and breathe?. I just dont think that people who have those kind of tendencies can ever change. My feelings are that he lost his human rights when he took away those of that poor child.

I would seriously quite happily apply for that job and gain tremendous job satisfaction from it.
Agreed. I have often said if anyone harmed my daughter...I would spend every penny I could lay my hands on to get the *@#*@#* and extract my revenge. :curse: :curse: :curse:

This is an interesting one. Not sure what your speciality in nursing is, but lets say for an example that you are an ER nurse.

Couey get's rushed to the ER after being badly stabbed in prison (remember, this is all hypothetical). Would you do everything you could to save his life knowing all the crimes he has committed?

I understand his crime record spans 30 years. I do not believe these people can be rehabilitated. Even I got the creeps on hearing about this crime. I am sure someone will exact punishment on the inside sooner or later.

Agree 100%. When I heard his conviction record on TV last night, I almost threw my remote at the screen.

Even more scary, they played a clip of him drinking in a bar in the city where I live.

Kudos. There is no way I could do the job you do and I admire your honesty and dedication.
