Double-Murderer Faces Oct. 11 Execution:  A Tennessee man who brutally murdered two people in 1983 is scheduled to be executed by lethal injection next Thursday.  Dave Boucher of the Tennessean reports that Edmund Zagorski's execution has been delayed before, but this time his plea to the Governor and court petitions are unlikely to spare him.  The crime occurred in HIckman County, Tennessee when a tavern owner and a friend followed Zagorski into the woods to buy 100 lbs. of marijuana he claimed to have hidden.  After Zagorski shot both victims and slit their throats, robbed them and stole one victim's new truck, he  fled to Ohio, where he injured several officers during a shootout with police.  His lawyer claims that after his arrest, Zagorski was deprived of an attorney during initial questioning, subjected to brutal living conditions, and has rehabilitated himself.  It will be Tennessee's second execution in almost ten years.

His lawyer claims that after his arrest, Zagorski
[who "shot both victims and slit their throats"] was ..
subjected to brutal living conditions, and has rehabilitated himself.

Why are these lawyer's claims relevant?
If he is a libra can we not execute him until after 22 October?
If he benefited from white privilege, musn't he apologize before execution?

1.] As the son, cousin and nephew of buckeyes, I apologize on behalf of the people of Ohio for failing to book him a room at the Country Inn & Suites by Radisson.

2.] Since the multi-murderer has rehabilitated himself, he now understands his guilt
and will gladfully accept the lawful punishment, in fact insist on it as the most just punishment for murdering 2 people.
