Ray had argued Alabama’s execution procedure favors Christian inmates because a Christian chaplain employed by the prison typically remains in the execution chamber during a lethal injection, but the state would not let his imam be there in the room.


Why would they not let an imam be present if they would let a chaplain be present?

So am I, but I have no problem with this rule-

Only prison employees are allowed in the room during the execution for obvious safety reasons.

Because the chaplain is a prison employee.

Says it in the article that they only let employees in the room. The chaplain is employed by the prison

Policies are policies

Probably because there was no imam that was a prison employee.

Think they could have made an exception...maybe not in the chamber itself but present. Doesn't seem unreasonable.

What a bunch of crap over literally NOTHING.

quote:

Ray’s imam, Yusef Maisonet, watched the execution from an adjoining witness room, after visiting with Ray over the past two days. There was no Christian chaplain in the chamber, a concession the state agreed to make.


The imam was there, just not holding his hand as he went straight to hell.

Oh so sad. I bet the girl he raped and killed would have LOVED to had had another person in the room while he tried to do those terrible things to her. Not sorry that filthy man didn't get his way.

So people are mad this guy wasn't allowed to break protocol and have a personal visitor in the execution room?

Yikes. What is wrong with people?


ETA:

Just saw prison chaplains are allowed. Aren't they employees?

I cannot stop thinking about Dominique Ray.

Not only did we kill him. All of us.

We let him die without the comfort of his faith. And worse, we tried to impose our state faith on him.

This is America.


Congrats guys, we did it!

That didn't take long.

Good job, SCOTUS.

I’m sure the amount of money we have spent on this piece of shite is astounding

24 years on death row

Probably had all his meals cooked to his religious specifications. Multiple daily prayer times.

Frick this piece of shite. He deserved nothing. He lived a full life after brutally ending another

This is justice?

Your statement is funny considering how many pedophile Christians you can read about who are in positions of authority at churches.
