then


now

i mean, i presume him innocent until otherwise proven by jury, but, if he is guilty, i sure hope he dies miserable and alone in prison.

and while i don't personally believe in heaven or hell, i certainly do believe in the twilight zone.

Witnesses for the defence and prosecution in the murder trial of Edgar Killen, the man accused of the infamous 1964 slayings of three human rights workers which was immortalised in the 1988 movie 'Mississippi Burning', have taken the stand in this most emotive case.

Killen, 80, who is a part time Baptist preacher and a suspected Ku Klux Klansman, is standing trial for the murders of Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James Chaney.

1. When they said he broke both his legs in a tree cutting accident
...my first thought was "Good - I hope it hurts like hell."

6. I don't want him alone in prison.

I want him to have a few African-American guards, an African-American warden, and a few African-American cellmates. I'm white and I've been in jail with African-American guards and African-American cellmates, and I never had any problems, so he should do fine, heh heh.
