#1 Yes. Florida has the death penalty.

#2 This makes me sick. As I am sure it makes all of you sick (especially those of us w/kids). My heart & prayers go out to her folks. I wonder how long it takes before Mike Farrell & Janeane the pig Garrafalo ask for clemency on this guy's behalf?

JH say: Buckle up Smith, it's the law in Florida.

#3 If you have trouble linking to the TV story, try this Associated Press story, February 6, 2004, 7:37 AM EST.

#4 Damn. I can't help but feel that this is because he was caught on tape. Maybe he would have done it anyway, but maybe he wouldn't have. Either way, damn.

#5 I can't help but feel that this is because he was caught on tape.

Most likely she was dead before the tape was released, they'll have a estimated time of death later. This asshole picked the wrong state, he'll be on death row before he knows what happened. Florida doesn't screw around with these guys, just ask Ted Bundy. He's sitting next to Hitler in hell.

#6 State records show that Smith has been arrested at least 13 times in Florida since 1993. He was arrested in 1997 on kidnapping and false imprisonment charges -- but was acquitted a year later

The judge, prosecutor, and jury from that case should be charged as accessories in this girl's death. I hope Ol' Sparky is warmed up, just enough to cook this mutt slowly.

#7 ...It gets worse, folks.
FNC is reporting that a judge had the chance to put him away on probation violations on December 30th, but declined. Governor Bush needs to put that jackass under a microscope too - he's already got investigators going over the Sarasota County Sherriff's Office, because it appears that she was missing for an entire day before they ever really got serious about things.

#8 reported that the slain child’s body was found behind a church off of Interstate 75 in Sarasota

Bless her innocent soul, this guy has done nothing but cause deep pain for everyone including himself, he'll get his, no doubt about that.

#9 Did Florida ever fix Ol' Sparky or is he still lighting people on fire? I hope it's the later.

This is why laws like Three Strikes get passed.

#12 I am usually against mob justice, but in this case we should make an exception. This waste of a human being doesn't deserve to breath another minute. After I saw the story I reviewed yelling and screaming with my kids. And then prayed they would never have to use it. Parents: Remind you kids that if a stranger tries to take them away to scream like they have never screamed before. The louder the better, perps don't like loud victims.

#13 Yeah the capacitors old old sparky were gettin kinda flaky..... 10, 100, 20, 1, 90, amps.... kinda fun to watch to I hear.

#14 I personally see nothing wrong with using Old Sparky again at say 1 to 10 amps for say oh 1/2 our or so. Jump it up to 100 once in while...
Use resusciatation..etc....But hey that's my opinion only.

Perfect. Put this turd with legs on a slow roast and let him suffer for days. This is one case where torture should be mandatory. Days and days of it.

#16 Was listening to KVI Radio while driving home last night and they were talking to some women who 'helps' people who molest kids. She kept saying that we should understand their addiction and be compassionate and treat them instead of incarcerate them.

The show host kept asking her if they should be locked up after they had molested a child. She said that we shouldn't lock them up but be more understanding and treat their addiction (the show was about addrediline addiction or something - I did not hear the entire show).

The only treatment they deserve is ole sparky (with a flaky capacitor..).

#17 My problem is not about understanding or what this guy deserves. My problem is if this guy will begin anew. That means the law failed to protect the innocent. Meaning that in case a criminal is released and kills another child a dozen or so between the liberals who advocated his liberation should pay for his crime. Ie loooooooooooonhg jail or even old sparky.

I am more than sick with people who play the big "generous" and "humanistic" liberal with other people's lives.

Damn straight, JFM. And don't forget being so "generous" and "Charitable" with other people's money.

#20 They retired Ol'Sparky, I think they use the needle now.

Then, I pray to God they miss the blood vessel, but dump enough poison into the muscle tissue to make the fiend's death at least as protracted, painful and scary as the poor child he killed. My heart goes out to her parents and family.

At what point do the !#8&^!#%* bleeding heart liberals wake up and realize that true compassion is swift and unrelenting justice. Examples made of criminals deter crime -- what better rehabilitation could a society want?

Oooops! Oh well, good thing I never wanted to be a judge, anyway. Can you just imagine what would happen during vetting if somebody tried to appoint me and this stuff (not to mention what I say in the office) ever came up?

Since I don’t want to ever be a judge, let me just add to my comments: Damn the judges (“the person, not the office -- which I respect”™) who, in the name of “fair trial,” so blind the juries by excluding so much evidence that no prosecutor could ever get a conviction. Damn the judges who overlook how felons have violated probation, and don’t revoke probation. Damn the judges who don’t throw the book at these guys when they are convicted -- all the while knowing full well that studies show tremendous rates of repeat (and worse) offenses. If this guy was arrested 13 times, he probably has at least three times the number of bad acts for which he never got caught.

Now some poor family has to try to go on in life without ever seeing this precious girl grow up. No awkward first dates, no prom, no dad giving away his daughter to a nervous groom . . . All because the powers that be decided to rehabilitate this scum, but found that not any amount of money or second chances would do the trick. AAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH ! ! ! ! !

#25 RE Sparky or injection I found this from Death Row Fact Sheet:
In January 2000, the Florida Legislature passed legislation that allows lethal injection as an alternative method of execution in Florida. Florida administers executions by lethal injection or electric chair at the execution chamber located at Florida State Prison.
It's still legal so bring old sparky out of retirement.

-hell yeah! Tell Talahassee, Gainesville, and J-ville to turn down their grids -- we're getting all the juice up for this one.

#27 Jarhead: Just Talahassee and maybe Gainesville. We don't want the juice running too consistently, now do we?
