46 years on death row is Madness

[@berlindamoustafa1887]

That is ridiculous 46 years on death row.

[@NormFreilinger]

You need glasses my friend

[@jamesorenthal-bm4sp]

give him a dna test using today's technology.

[@samernabeel7822]

You think they have not done it !

[@iamerror1699]

@@samernabeel7822they didn’t have DNA testing back then and in order to have it done he’d have to follow very long drawn out procedures

His brother in law from Georgia is who should have been sitting on death row - Mr Tommy absolutely did not commit murder(s). Our family's business was across the street, my Mother and I were both there as events went down - we knew he and Eunice quite well. Ms Eunice and Tommy brought my Christmas present over earlier, a rocking chair that I still have. That was the last time I ever seen either of them

[@rowdyelitehater8595]

Can’t u help him get out of jail? If this is true, it’s criminal he’s in jail.

[@sherrydigiorgio3504]

So you witnessed the murders?

[@kathyrizzi8754]

At this point he should be let go, they waited too damn long. He’s so old, 43 yrs on death row doesn’t make sense! If he’s innocent, the state owes this man freedom & money to last the rest of his short life. This is a miscarriage of justice!

[@themysterycook7320]

I think he's guilty about 85 percent , but there's more than reasonable doubt here. If he were black he would hay been executed decades ago & if he had a decent attorney this probably wouldn't have gone to trial. He's still guilty though ..

[@cosmokramer5055]

@@themysterycook7320he has a great attorney it’s the prosecutors that keep blocking his ability to have DNA testing done

[@DevotedDisciple-x]

I see a lot of comments asking why they don't let him go. It would cost the state a fortune id they overturned this. They see it better to let him die in prison along with any chance of paying out a fortune.

[@vockyabney2764]

This man is innocent why don't they just let him go

[@carlakenyon6073]

Or a DNA test

[@thedoruk6324]

​@@carlakenyon6073because everyone should realize the fact that american so called justice system is a massive sham and abhorrent

[@Nok112]

Tragedy if he’s not guilty

[@Nicki9202]

I remember seeing his case on Unsolved Mysteries and there are too many questions as to his if he is guilty or not, this is crazy 46 years on death row.

[@JellybeanChiChi]

Yes, it was on Unsolved Mysteries, and has had several other documentaries since then. It's painful to see him on death row for that long.

[@sarahnjagi5294]

46 yrs on death row🥺🥺🥺

[@fernandohenriquepereiracha9996]

this one is already in the grave ... slowness government takes to execute is part agony or punishment

[@morningstar4789]

What happened to innocent until proven guilty? This guy is innocent

[@mariemccann5895]

🤣

[@robingagan6288]

I don’t think so

[@Rombizio]

I support the death penalty only in case of the person ia caught on the act or the evidence is overwhelming like in the case of live videos.

[@carolanncharles4886]

Hello killing is wrong u can't kill someone cause they kill this is wrong supporting this tyle of act is a sin

[@sre1236]

I don’t cuz honestly we know inncocent people in prison and who determines what overwhelming evidence is, obviously if it’s on camera other than that we can’t know for sure people lie and r mistaken

[@FranklinRuthie]

I just literally watch Unsolved mysteries with Robert stack today about this case

[@annak2362]

I remember seeing a program about this case years ago and it was obvious that Tommy was innocent. His imprisonment breaks my heart.

[@malcolmdale9607]

Only in America.

[@milessmith2171]

I remember seeing this guy on locked up years ago

[@cameroncurrie7208]

The mistakes are the exact reason we don't have the death penalty here in Canada. If you make one mistake it dosen't work.

[@ross9581]

But also, there is no justice in Canada. Criminals got a slap on the fingers that's all. A shame. Very corrupt and lousy system!

[@carlakenyon6073]

But serial killers should stay in for life not 16 years.🙄

[@Marvin-P]

Excuses excuses for people on death row!

[@DA-dw5zn]

Multiple convictions & they can't bring a conclusion to one of them. Talk about lazy. Not much difference between a life sentence & death until they kill you. I read a Caryl Chessman quote where he said he didn't mind dying he just didn't want to be told when he would. An inmate in Indiana on a TV documentary said the biggest relief at his sentence reduction was that he could die when he wanted.

[@krystaldaniels7940]

My Papa said that if you couldn’t be the one to administer that injection or press that button then you can’t agree with capital punishment.❤

[@snakecat586]

I worked at fsp for a year on the wing where they killed them and death row. The wing where they kill them has the most evil presence and the bathroom is downstairs where nobody is. Thats where they kill them too. I ran down and up when I had to piss. You stopped asking and looking what they did too.

Is his gray sweater underneath on backwards ?😊

[@nicholaswilkinson1364]

I don't think he gives a Uck. More important things on his mind.

It's funny how I'm kin to these same exact names in Booneville Ar

[@amazing5392]

So many ppl in death row with German last Names 👀

[@DescendIntoTheAbsurd]

That's because German is the largest ethnic group in the USA.

[@jeremiah_DaGreat1382]

I believe he did it if he ain't do it then his name shouldn't never got brought up some people play it so smooth but most of the time you can't trick the system

[@Jehugwens85]

I used to wonder why Jesus paid the price they i no forgiveness in this world 😢

[@curtisdalrymple42]

[@carlakenyon6073]

wtf! Jesus?????

[@themysterycook7320]

I thy he's guilty but there's surely reasonable doubt here..
