Florida Law May Save the Life of A Child Murderer

I was reading another report on KMBC.com's site...



"Jury Wants Jessica Lunsford's Killer Executed" (Posted March 14, 2007 on TheKansasCityChannel.com)



John Couey was found guilty of raping, sexually battering and murdering 9 year old Jessica Lunsford. The jury apparently wants Couey to be executed for the crimes with which he has been found guilty. His attorneys, however, are claiming that Couey is mentally retarded.


"Couey's lawyers argued that convicted killer Couey is mentally retarded and that the 48-year-old has the mind of a child during testimony in the sentencing phase of the convicted killer's trial. "

"Florida law and a 2002 U.S. Supreme Court ruling prohibit execution of retarded people."




What Couey did to that little child is beyond horrendous! He is guilty of causing such unspeakable harm to one of our little ones, YET, Florida law may protect him from being executed, while having condoned the sentencing of an innocent brain damaged woman (Terri Schiavo) to a torturous death by starvation and dehydration?



Can anyone truly explain the supposed logic of any of this?
