DEATH PENALTY
CONSTITUTIONALITY
MY NAME IS TIM REAM AND I?M DEBATING FOR THE
CONSTITUTIONALITY OF THE DEATH PENALTY.
1. THE CASE OF LEROY KEITH, A MURDERER ON DEATH ROW BUT
SOME HOW GOT OUT ON PAROLE, AND ENDED UP IN WARREN, OHIO.
THERE HE WALKED UP TO A MAN NAMED FREDERICK GRIEST AS HE
WAS SITTING BEHIND THE WHEEL OF HIS CAR AND SHOT HIM DEAD.
HE WAS SENTENCED TO DEATH AGAIN. HE APPEALED AND A
RETRIAL WAS HELD AND RESULTED IN LIFE IMPRISONMENT. ON
MARCH 7, 1956, HE WAS PAROLED AGAIN AND GIVEN A
GOVERNMENT-MANDATED JOB IN YOUNGSTOWN,OHIO. IT LASTED
THREE DAYS BEFORE HE DISAPPEARED. ON NOVEMBER 21, 1956, HE
TURNED UP ON NORTH HOWARD STREET IN AKRON, OHIO,WHERE
HE WALKED UP TO A PARKED CAR AND SHOT THE DRIVER, COBURN
VON GUNTEN, DEAD. HE THEN DUMPED THE BODY ON THE STREET
WHEN THE POLICE INTERVENED. THEY GOT INTO A GUN FIGHT
WITH KEITH WHICH ENDED WITH TWO MORE PEOPLE DEAD. HE
THEN WENT TO NEW YORK WHERE HE JOINED UP WITH TWO OTHER
PEOPLE FOR THE PURPOSE OF ROBBING A TAXI. THE TAXI PICKED
THEM UP AND WHEN THE DRIVER REALIZED HE WAS BEING
ROBBED HE PURPOSELY RAN INTO A COP CAR. THEY JUMPED OUT
OF THE CAR, BUT BEFORE HE GOT OUT LEROY SHOT THE DRIVER.
HE WAS FINALLY CAUGHT AND EXECUTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
SO HERE WAS JUST ONE INSTANCE WERE THE DEATH PENALTY IS
CONSTITUTIONAL.
IN ORDER FOR THE DEATH PENALTY TO BE UNCONSTITUIONAL IT
HAS TO BE CRUEL AND OR UNUSUAL.
A. IT IS CONSTITUTIONAL
1. TO BE UNCONSTITUTIONAL IT HAS TO BE CRUEL AND OR
UNUSUAL WHICH IT IS NOT BECAUSE FOR IT TO BE CRUEL IT HAS TO
EXCEED THE CRIME. IF WE EXECUTED PEOPLE FOR JAYWALKING OR
PICK-POCKETING THAT IS CRUEL, AND IT ISN?T UNUSUAL BECAUSE
IT HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE FIRST RECORDED TIME.
THE FIFTH AMENDMENT STATES THAT ?NO PERSON SHALL BE HELD
TO ANSWER FOR A CAPITAL, OR OTHERWISE INFAMOUS CRIME,
UNLESS ON A PRESENTMENT OR INDICMENT OF A GRAND JURY,
IN CASES ARISING IN THE LAND OR NAVAL FORCES, OR IN THE
MILITIA, WHEN IN ACTUAL SERVICE IN TIME OF WAR OR PUBLIC
DANGER; NOR SHALL ANY PERSON BE SUBJECT FOR THE SAME
OFFENSE TO BE TWICE PUT IN JEOPARDY OF LIFE; NOR SHALL BE
COMPELLED IN ANY CRIMINAL CASE TO BE WITNESS AGAINST
HIMSELF, NOR BE DEPRIVED OF LIFE, LIBERTY, OR PROPERTY,
WITHOUT DUE PROCESS OF LAW; NOR SHALL PRIVATE PROPERTY
BE TAKEN FOR PUBLIC USE, WITHOUT JUST COMPENSATION.?
NOTE ?…A CAPITAL OR OTHERWISE INFAMOUS
CRIME…? ?… NOR BE DEPRIVED OF LIFE … WITHOUT
DUE PROCESS OF LAW…?
THE DEATH PENALTY UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION BY PROTECTING
THE PUBLIC AND RIDDING THE COUNTRY OF OFFENDERS WITH
?DUE PROCESS OF LAW.?
