Man was killed for talking to woman

From Tony Rizzo: A man with a 1997 murder conviction was sentenced Thursday to life in prison for an August 2008 slaying. Damon L. Simpson, 32, received consecutive sentences of life without parole for first-degree murder and armed criminal action. He was convicted of fatally shooting Stevie D. Green at 72nd Street and College Avenue.

Another man, angered that Green was talking to a woman he had dated, recruited Simpson to kill Green, according to police reports.

I'm cofused, WTF was this guy doing walking the streets if he had a 1997 murder conviction?

You say confused...
I say cofused...
Oh well, at least it's FRIDAY!!!

He was out because no sane society keeps people locked up forever over any but the most spectacular, Manson-like homocides. The guy was 20 at the time of the first conviction, and probably 18 at the tim of the offense. Chances of a second killing are actually not higher than the population in general -- and we cannot afford the $45K per year to warehouse them.

On the other hand, I guess it is safe to assume that the rehabilitation aspect of this guy's stay with the State was not quite successful, and his future residence should be of a more permanent nature.

Cicero-Would executing him have been a better way than spending $45k or releasing him, as far as the $$$ are concerned?

Yes,,,,,,,,,,,oh you didn't ask me. Sorry:(

Do you want potheads roaming the streets, getting high and playing hacky sack? Hell NO! We've got to get these murders and rapists out of our jails to make room for you Marxist hippies!

146-I feel the same way.

Marvin, wanna play hacky sack with us?

Dont forget folks, frisbees are good for two things

Haha. This is Hilarious. How the hell do you go from a damn murder to talking about hacky sacks and pot heads pull yourselves together people or don't write about a serious case that you scoundrels have no idea about.
Let's start off with the 1st point.
Point 1. The heading of this blog is pure BULLSHIT "Man Was Killed for Talking to Woman"
My point-He was killed for talking to woman he was killed for disrespecting a woman, Im sorry if you low life bastards in 2010 think its okay to proposition a women for sex.
