Should he be sentenced to death for the rape and murder of 11 year old Carlie Brucia? Let me know what you're thinking.

If I remember correctly, this happened in Florida where they're pretty big on the death penalty, so I believe he probably will get it.

I used to be opposed to the death penalty, but have changed my mind - there are monsters among us and I see no reason to keep them alive in prison for life anymore. So, admitting that I don't know all the details of this case, he was found guilty and I do believe that he deserves the death penalty.

Deborah, you are correct. This happened in Florida.
Until, recently I was against the death penalty.
Sexual predators (monsters) as you so eloquently, put it
changed my belief system. The jury is now listening to
Smith's family, friends etc. as to why his life should
be spared. Hopefully, this farce will be concluded within
next 24hrs.

I believe that anyone that does such horrific things as molest, and Brutalize as well as murder children or anyone for that matter, should have the same things done to them in the same fashion as they did to the victim, as punishment.

Hello Lana,

Welcome to the forum.

Joseph Smith, is a real humdinger to put it lightly.
I must remember that I am a lady.

Did you see this character deliver his award winning
speech? Oh, he choked and he cried. It's the first
time he has expressed any emotion throughout this trial.

On March 15, 2006 Judge Owens will announce to
the world, whether he will Live or Die.
I personally can not wait.

Isn't hard to look at him as human? He's truly
disgusting. His 15 year old niece took the stand
to plead for his life. What a waste.

Carlie Brucia had a rough life before Smith ever came
into it. The police had been to her home a total of
69 times.

Her mother didn't make the final court dates, because
she is incarcerated, due to possession of crack cocaine
and solicitation of prostitution.

She's been down this road before. (Though, she had led us
to believe something different). When Carlie was
growing up. She was drug addicted & locked up for
prostitution. That's why Carlie's parents were no
longer together. Carlie's dad had tried to get legal
custody of her, but the state felt she would be better
off with her mother. Go figure.

I agree with you wholeheartedly, an eye for eye --
with Smith.

Talk to ya soon.

Here's a real frightening thought for Joseph Smith.

Judge Owens, has to take this into consideration
when making his decision, as to whether Smith should
Live or Die.

"What Value Does His Life Have?"

Now, isn't that a loaded question?

Lets see... prior to abducting, raping, strangling
and murdering 11 year old Carlie Brucia, -- he took a
motorcycle helmet & beat a woman's face unmercifully
with it -- another woman reported, she escaped
"who knows what?" Smith, flagged her over as she was
driving down the street & tried to lure her in his van.

He admitted to becoming a heroin user & addict
at age 19. And, I don't mean this to insult those
who have struggled with addictions. HE, just uses
his drug problems as an excuse for his sad and pitiful
life.

Folks who have battled drugs/alcohol don't go
and do to children or people what Smith did to Carlie.

Yeah, right about now Smith oughta be eating his
fingernails & toenails off.
