Timothy McVeigh was arrested, tried, convicted and executed

[Leslie Valley]

In about 6 years.

Nidal Malik Hasan has yet to be brought to trial after 4 years.

How long until this latest squirrelly little bastard is brought to justice?

[Posteritatis]

1. Can't wait to see all the people calling for exceptions to the justice system. Ugh. (nt)

[DeadEyeDyck]

2. McVeigh wavered all his his rights.

[Jeremy Almond]

3. How long should the process be?

In your opinion.

[Leslie Valley]

7. As swift and fair as the "full weight of the Federal justice system"

Can Make it.

To paraphrase the President.

4. Well, they will probably wait to see if he survives and heals from surgery first.

[Trajan]

5. If you could execute him today, how would YOU do it?

Would you hang him?

Place a bomb in his briefs?

Electrocution?

Drawn and quartered?

How would a person who prefers speedy justice choose to kill a suspect?

6. I suspect this will go smoothly

I am waiting to see and hear the repugs try to play politics with this

9. They already are

Lindsey Graham and the boil on his ass known as John McCain seem to want him in Guantanimo. I can only imagine the panicked squealing on the right if we actually bring this little shit into a public courtroom.

8. Hopefully...

Justice will be quick and swift!

10. I guess

it's the White privilege I keep reading about on this site.

11. It will be a long time. Count on it.

In the meantime, he'll be held in a "nice" place he can't get out of. Such trials always take a long time before beginning. It's the way of things.
