Condemned Child Killer Wants Mercy, Says He Intended to Rape, Not Kill, Six Month Old

His attorneys argue he was too drunk to tell he was killing her; want death sentence commuted

Condemned killer Steven Smith's argument for mercy isn't an easy one. Smith acknowledges he intended to rape his girlfriend's 6-month-old daughter but says he never intended to kill the baby.

Does he want a shorter sentence, or is he looking at an execution and wants life without parole instead?

[C. S. P. Schofield]

So, he wants to be raped, not killed?

Oh, I think if you put this guy in gen pop, he will be raped and killed.

[ant1sthenes]

Which seems fitting, so I support taking him off death row and putting him there.

Sounds about right to me, although I have to say I'd love to see a crackdown on the prison-rape culture. Still, if it leads to this swine having a short and eventful life, that's Karma.
