US executes 2nd man in a week; Lawyers said he had dementia

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP) — The United States on Thursday carried out its second federal execution this week, killing by lethal injection a Kansas man whose lawyers contended he had dementia and was unfit to be executed.

Wesley Ira Purkey was put to death at the Federal Correctional Complex in Terre Haute, Indiana. Purkey was convicted of kidnapping and killing a 16-year-old girl, Jennifer Long, before dismembering, burning and dumping her body in a septic pond. He also was convicted in a state court in Kansas after using a claw hammer to kill an 80-year-old woman who had polio.

Purkey was strapped to a gurney inside the execution chamber. A prison official removed a mask from Purkey’s face and asked him if he wanted to make a final statement.

He leaned his head up slightly from the gurney and said: “I deeply regret the pain and suffering I caused to Jennifer’s family. I am deeply sorry.”

He also expressed remorse for his own adult daughter’s suffering his actions caused. “I deeply regret the pain I caused to my daughter, who I love so very much,” he said.

His last words were: “This sanitized murder really does not serve no purpose whatsoever. Thank you.”

As the lethal chemical was injected, Purkey took several deep breaths and blinked repeatedly, laying his head back down on the gurney. His time of death was 8:19 a.m. EDT.

He exhibited early signs of dementia, obviously by his comments, he'd not "lost" his memory, Now, Clean out death row,,,,,,

One of the recent executions, the guy committed the murder of a family in like, 1996? He was 47 NOW so early 20's then, LONG time to sit and think, too bad his victims didn't have the same luxury.

Dimocraps dont want murderers killed, only the babies and unborn.

That’s what I never could understand about them. They jump through hoops to protect criminals and couldn’t give a schit less about victims. They think nothing of killing a baby but will turn heaven and earth over to save a psychopath. Libs = Warped MF’ers...

He's right. A "sanitized" and expensive execution does not serve the public at all. It's time to end that crap, and go back to public execution, where the people watch as the scumbag schitts and pisses himself after his neck is broken.

Quit calling it "execution". "Late-term abortion" will get all the libs to switch sides!

Just like Gov Cuomo cleaned out the nursing homes !

...and Republicans.

He was right....his killing was too "sanitized". He should have suffered at least as much as his victims.

His death certificate will probably list "COVID 19" as cause of death.

Letting em sit a while does give them the opportunity to get squared away w the Big Guy.

Before their earthly vessel is shut down

Now how long should they be given before shutdown?
Certainly not 20 yrs IMHO

Two down a whole bunch more to go!

Until noon, the day following date of conviction. At which time, they should be taken to the place of execution and hanged by the neck until dead.

Ya, they really need to bring back public hanging.....

WGAF what the murderin SOB said?

Liberal press sidin with a killer, over the victim/family.

And the killers should be made to choose their manner of death.

Either:

1 - The way they killed their victim, as closely as technology can duplicate it; or

2 - The needle/easy way.

Make em admit that they are such a pussy that they wouldn't want ta suffer and die the way they killed their victim.
