John Lotter, the monster responsible for horrible 1993 triple murder that spawned the movie "Boys Don't Cry", may not face death in a Nebraska's electric chair.
The state Supreme Court passed a ruling that electrocution is cruel and unusual punishment. So now, they are exploring different options.
John was sentenced to death for killing Teena Brandon, Lisa Lambert and Phillip DeVine in a farmhouse. He and another man had also raped Teena Brandon before killing her. I hope they figure something out soon.

I think all those people on death row in every state should be executed in the same way they killed their victims. Stranglation, gun shots, stabbing, etc.
I have no sympathy for any of these men on death row. Cruel & unsual punishment? When they killed Teena Brandon was that not cruel and unusual? I hate when these CONVICTED felons facing death for henious and brutally violent crimes cry about how horrible gas or the electric chair will be. Did they think about that while they were killing, raping, decapitating, burning, kidnapping, shooting, stabbing, disemboweling, or chopping up the person they killed or how their family feels. NO! So why should we care about them? It is bad enough these violent offenders get room, board, cable, three squares, game and exercise time on OUR TAX MONEY! I think public hangings should be brought back. Now that we have so much DNA testing, there should no mistake about who did what to whom!
VAMOMMA
Wow. Though I have a hard time feeling compassion for this man, given what he did, I don't feel that it is his sole responsibility to pay for his crimes. The society that spawned him and men like him should pay for his internment until his eventual, natural death. That includes us.
Ranting in support of the death of another human being reminds me of a rabid dog.
Just saying.
