Dailymail has learned that lawyers for 67 y/o Wesley Ira Purkey have opend up multiple last ditch efforts in a bid to spare their client's life on federal death row by asking for DONALD TRUMP FOR CLEMENCY as they describe the president as a "reasonable" man who has the foresight to understand her client did not get the mental help he needed

He is set to be put to death on December 13, 2019 for the rape, murder and DISMEMBERMENT of 16 y/o Jennifer Long in his Kansas home in 1998 and was also convicted of beating 80 y/o Mary Bales to death with a HAMMER!!

AG Bill Barr announced that the federal gov't would resume executions for the first time since 2003, setting Purkey and 4 others on death row to die as Barr called them "the worst criminals"

But Rebecca Woodman told dailymail that Mr. Purkey is not the 'worst of the worst' of the bunch and said he grew up in a house of horrors, beaten and humiliated by his parents and subjected to extensive and ongoing sexual abuse by members of his family. She also said he was demeaned and brutalized by Catholic nuns and repeatedly MOLESTED by priests and had jurors heard this information, at least one would have voted for life

They are now filing a stay of execution arguing his lawyer failed to mention these including being sexually abused by his mother where she taught him to perform ORAL SEX..ON HER..at 10 YEARS OLD!!

His father also paid for prostitutes to fondle and touch him when he was 12 and his grandmother would parade him around the house NAKED as he was also sexually abused by his priest

His childhood lead him down a road of alcohol and drugs and crime and they are urging Trump to commute his sentence without the possibility of parole and cited his mental health diagnosis and remorse.

They wrote "He has not forgiven himself and so he cannot ask for forgiveness from you or your office. He asks only for your intervention, which would simply permit him to die in prison at his late stage in his life."

On the day of the murder in 1988, Purkey drove to Missouri for a job interview and smoked half a rock of crack cocaine when he passed 16 y/o Jennifer Long who was walking on the sidewalk. He pulled her over asking if she wanted to go for a "party" but after picking up alcohol,she asked to leave and that's when he grabbed a knife and said she couldn't leave. He took her backhome where he raped her and murdered before dismembering her body using a CHAINSAW..

9 months after that murder, he was employed by a plumbing company where he met Mary Bales. She would pay him extra money as "under the table" payment but when he bought a prostitute, he needed more money for the sex and crack...that's when he returned to Mary's home and murdered her using a claw hammer.

In 2003, a jury found him guilty of the murders and was sentenced to death and has been on death row until now.

4 other men, 46 y/o Daniel Lewis Lee, 37 y/o Lezmond Charles Mitchell, 55 y/o Alfried Bourgeois and 51 y/o Dustin Lee Honken are scheduled to be executed in December and January

The mother of the teen victim, Glenda Lamont says she's overjoyed hearing the news of the execution and plans to attend it on December 13 if it moves forward.

Do you think sucking up is gonna work on Trump?

Wow. 40 percent of the population is super stupid. How sad. Imagine being so dumb you you chose yes. Even if you're a die hard liberal and hate Trump, how dishonest and ignorant and low brow do you have to be to have that little integrity? Sorry kids, it's the liberal judges that give light sentences and support criminals.

Monsters who commit these atrocities are often victims themselves through genetics, environment, upbringing, etc. They did terrible things and should be punished and locked away, but I've never really agreed with the death penalty for that reason. They were basically born and through a series of butterfly effects, were unable to not become that monster. I don't think they should be legally killed for that reason. Plus the whole "citizens getting killed by their government" always seems questionable. Do a crime, and lose the privilege to live freely is fair in my book.

I mean, he was only sentenced like 16 years ago. And I guess they schedule out executions pretty far out...

Basically. Plus there's always the issue that the person may actually be innocent and, while the country can deprive somebody of their life in punishment, it can't restore that life should exonerating evidence emerge (although, in this case, that evidence is pretty exceedingly unlikely).

Not to mention that the dude is 67. He could run the clock out on appeals as is, wasting the government's time and money.

If he's petitioning Trump for clemency, odds are that his appeals have been exhausted.

You can't give a person back 20 years in the appeal system, and you also can't revive the killed victim.

False convictions do happen but they are exceedingly rare and we should accept the inevitable margin of error rather than fucking about in a 20 year appeal battle only to still inevitably sometimes kill an innocent.

There's no perfect system, but letting monsters live is so far from ideal it's crazy.

So they know for sure they have the right guy

He has raped an underaged minor and committed multiple murders

He is unrepentant about them

His defense is that his life is fucked up so he couldn't help it

This is like the poster child of why the death penalty should be aloud.

Normally, its already a long time until they execute someone for many reason like making sure they have the right person, and because prisoners on death row might use a stay of execution, which can lengthen it, too. But, they also stopped doing it for a while, and apparently started to resume it. So, thats one of the reasons its been so long...

It probably wasnt 5 years. Well, technically wasnt, either way. The first murder did happened in 1998. But they didnt catch him right after. He was free for at least 9 months. Then he murdered an old woman. He was arrested for that. They didnt even charge him with Jennifers murder until 2001. So, the court date might have been set for 2002-ish. And could have also ran long...

No, absolutely not.

If somebody is given life in prison, its the same to the layperson as them being killed, since they can no longer harm the general populace. What does it matter if they get killed or serve a life term until they natually die? I think the "inevitable margin of error" is reason enough to not have the death penalty, because life in prison vs death doesnt even matter. The death option satisfies the bloodlust of the public but doesnt accomplish much else.

*sigh*

You cut out the answer and then posted something irrelevant.

The federal government had not being doing executions. I just did a bit of searching and I can't find any reason the federal government wasn't carrying out the penalties, it just seems like there are large gaps between it occurring.

Barr is just ordering sentences that have already been handed out to actually be performed.
