americans also don't forget that like it now but you see that some of these extracted four or five of those a from now this only in a moral code once was that limits really but also from china i mean that what i want to extract people who they want to extract without any problem what happened inside the embassy is that when they tried to sedate him they use a sedative gotten you know which you see in movies sometime basically someone like me but the gun and then injection goes into the neck and someone then you know fall asleep i mean but they said that the gun malfunctioned and kept pumping in the sedative far more than what dymov or anyone basically could withstand so it was an overdose of sedative and he was struggling and that led basically to the whole thing being basically. a disaster it was an extraction gone wrong disaster i mean dean thank you that's it for the show join us on monday where we revisit u.k. secret service to sexual british foreign policy u. turns with one of john pilger is favorite story and could just gilding keep in

touch with social media will be back on monday the seventieth anniversary of the united nations universal declaration of human rights founded not to impose old legations as a matter of international law by the us supreme court under president george w. bush. you know world a big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting past each other. it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for

the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is on offer and very dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk.

nineteen seventy eight. tonight tonight in ny i see a better executed. opera form sixty next years in the seventeen years. people that recommend the death penalty in theory the judge if they had performed the execution i think that. in light a different story on given the depth and it would go into. the united states is the last country in the developed west to execute criminals.

about fifty percent of americans are for the death penalty and fifty percent against it. our capital punishment system is flawed this is not a matter of vengeance it's a matter of just that we believe serves as a deterrent capital punishment is tainted by racial disparity having my father's killers executed did not bring me a sense of closure is it to restore society or is it an issue if you tickle why should your life be taken justice is about us as a society. one nine hundred eighty two was my first execution. i was a correctional officer. one of my main jobs were to save lives so when it came down to execution i had to transform myself into

a person that would take a life. jerry givens was appointed executioner in one thousand nine hundred seventy seven when the united states reinstated the death penalty. he grew up in the housing projects of richmond virginia. and remembers one tragic night at a party. when i was a teenager i witness a young lady. shot down by oh my. i want to being quite a young lady because. i was. told if. my thing is that if a person take a life of about a person in that person's life should be taken and that's what i believe. jerry received training to operate the electric chair and later to administer lethal injections. he became chief executioner in one thousand nine hundred two. i would say my team members take pride in their work their preparations. getting

this person ready for his next step and i prepare him just to see is he it's for the last time or. a last kiss of his mother sister of amy's wife or daughter. all of human you know and this is one human that had made a mistake and we had to carry out the orders. outside of his team of eight jerry told no one about his work as an executioner not even his wife. to keep. a secret and i kept it a secret from my my family. since one thousand nine hundred seventy seven other executioners across the united states have put over one thousand four hundred sixty people to death it's a punishment supposed to be reserved for the worst of the worst.

it was a gorgeous day it was in fear to follow it all morning we met some friends in boston and. twenty three thousand runners and half a million spectators gathered for the boston marathon. karen brossard her husband and daughter which cheering a friend over the finish line. we were there for maybe ten or fifteen minutes all excited with the crowd watching everybody come through and the suddenly it was this incredibly loud. explosion.

seven of us there six of us were injured. one of our their friends lost both of my legs that. i knew that my husband was pretty badly injured . my daughter had shrapnel from her hip sure. and i had trapped both my legs. the two blasts injured over two hundred sixty people and killed three including krystal campbell. and eight year old martin richard. police pursuit two brothers in a dramatic manhunt. twenty six year old tamar alonzo meyer was killed in a shootout. again later police captured the younger brother dzhokhar alive.

over the next few months karen braun in their daughter like many of the bombing victims had to undergo multiple surgeries. going to try to not let this change who i am i'm not going to let this prevent me from living the life that i want to live. i'm not going to be afraid. later that summer karen traveled from a home in new hampshire to boston her star ny observer a moment at the federal court. we were all seated together and he walked out he didn't look at any of us but his hand was obviously entered and my immediate response was i hope that her i hope it's.

not like me. and the recognition of that about me was scared because that isn't who i am. pled not guilty to all thirty counts seventeen punishable by death. the federal prosecutor asked victims if the us should seek the death penalty. i don't know. i don't know. i. don't know what justice is. i got an e-mail. terrorist acts are rare much more common are the murders and other violent acts that happen every day across the united states. in philadelphia shannon schieber

was finishing her first year of graduate school. she had been up studying it was early thursday morning before i would say it was friday morning. about two o'clock in the morning she was preparing to take a bath. the assailant who who attacked her he pried open her sliding door. she screamed for help as she was being attacked. the next door neighbor heard that he called nine one one. he told him that he heard his neighbor say a scream for help and he heard like a choking he said. the police arrived within twenty minutes they knocked on the door but no one answered.

the next day when shannon didn't show up for a lunch date with her brother shawn he drove her apartment building. all of she and its neighbors came down and answered the door and sean said i'm trying to reach my sister i can't reach your. the guy just would pale they say oh my god i called the police last night they were running up the steps they broke open her door and she was laying naked on her bed. by the time we got to philadelphia the police were swarming around the apartment building and they let us know immediately that she had been attacked. she had been

murdered. we were beginning to face the fact that part of us had died and i mean it hit us very quickly. i just remember the prince that we'd be able to gather to get through this. that weekend they attended mass. when we got to the lord's prayer. saying the lord's prayer out loud was a real confrontation. forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against him. i had to abandon something i had been saying. often probably thoughtlessly thousands of times over my over or. and if anyone would have asked us what would you want to do if you if you ever

found who did this i didn't i just why be so angry i want i want him dead to maybe i don't know i never had this happen it was is so painful. eight days later the schieber is buried their twenty three year old daughter. the consequences of consequences for people particularly. those of other. people. there's a lot of. there's a lot of social social activity and nobody wants to see.

the need. arise. base walker. is going to go he would. know that these industries. simply ignored. the mother. of this.

what does society do when someone commits a horrific act of violence. for centuries seeking justice was a community affair. and disproportionate blame fell on the poor mentally disabled and people of color. in the eighteen hundreds some capital offenses were targeted specifically at slaves establishing a racial bias that continues today. executions reached a historic peak in the one nine hundred thirty s.

averaging one hundred sixty seven per year but then in one thousand thirty six. a gruesome execution caught the attention of the media. on aug fourteenth in owensboro kentucky rainy the thea was publicly hanging by a white sheriff's many thought but the oh was innocent. one new york times reporter wrote ten thousand white persons some jaring another's festive saw prayerful black men put to death today and davies county's piton gallus . the outcry over rainy bothy is hanging did not put an end to capital punishment instead it drove executions behind prison walls out of public view. state officials built death houses and institutionalized the practice. it's a death by formula it's a scripted death in the beginning it was hanging it was not only hanging but it was

public and so you see the crowds come in and bring in a picnic luncheon celebrating then we move from hanging to the electric chair and then we began to hammer the horror stories that happened out of the electric chair . and then has been a move to lethal injection and lead. the injection is likely going medicinal so that will just be putting them to sleep. but not everyone agrees. the idea that they should go out in an opiate haze that it should be a pleasant death is absolutely perverse. the debate about the death penalty has become increasingly polarized and politicized we want a system that they are we want a system that respects the dignity of human beings the idea that we were executing innocent people was terrifying and there was just no way that we hadn't and that we

were some people kill with an attitude so callous and us sadistic that they have forfeited their right to live i believe in a turn of one and that is when we execute this person we know he will never kill again why is it that the death penalty really comes down to in many cases just where you live who your d.n.a. is we cannot recognize injustice when we see at people of not being treated fairly if people not getting a fair shot you can be critical because you can be critical of the idea that the government has the right to kill and also hold compassion and concern for victims maybe in some books of justice the person for this act deserves to die but do we as a society deserve to kill them. today capital punishment largely falls to the state in which the crime was committed and laws and methods

vary widely. most states use lethal injection. but some still use gas chambers. the electric chair. hanging. and firing squads. carrying out the death penalty is intrusted to specially trained guards like jerry givens. of the sixty two executions the jerries conducted thirty seven were by electrocution and twenty five by lethal injection. lethal injection is considered the more humane form but for jerry it made the job of killing another person a lot tougher. when you talk about execution and electrocution is

a button you push and washing push a button the current flows in the current comes out. and that's all i had to do was push a button. but when it come down to buy anything jackson you have seven tunes a chemicals you have four flushes and three deadly chemicals that is inserted into this man and my self as the execution i'm at the end of it's a rant i'm pushing the poison. down to tune into the body so i'm more attach to this person then it is pushing a button and release and then they let the current flow by itself fifteen days prior to an execution the condemned would be moved to the death chamber where jerry and his team worked. all nine of us were executions and perfect

a good excuse and that's what we stood by. the preparation was mental as well as physical we practice and practice and practice prior to execution. each of us knew our jobs out sign it and we never allow ourselves to get that close to anyone you know we train for that we train this way you don't get that close to . the day of the execution. twenty four hours prior to that we we have a call a duck watch. a guy will act differently because he knew that this is the last everything. this is the c.e.o. whether condemn sperry's. this is where the warden really is don't want these clergy person. to sit with him.

doing this course of the day to condemn is given a shower his last meal is less visitations. by six o'clock our preparations were stopped into the inmate is placed today. at home in new hampshire karen in her family were slowly recovering from their injuries. not much for wasm physical abilities things like the loss of specially for me my rose colored glasses you know. just the reality. that. people are different things are

not the same. when even with ron and i. are. working through things and i'm working through things. it had been six months since the bombing and karen had not yet seen her good friend celeste who was with them at the finish line and lost both her legs. and then planning. initially i i couldn't bring myself. to believe it. because i felt. celeste and sixteen others lost limbs that day ron was one of the lucky ones doctors were able to save his leg but the trauma and pain still lingered. we're

going to have to work for a long time to get to burne new normal whatever that's going to be. after months of deliberation attorney general eric holder announced the u.s. would seek the death penalty. the defense will argue that the car was pressured into it by his older brother that he was a popular well liked college kid led astray. or be held responsible and i agree and i and i am to believe that. but i also thank you. just can't stoop and. karen son was the same age as though car. didn't seem like such a hard decision when it was abstract. you know our family and friends

who are very religious and don't believe. that i have others who just say. it's the right thing to do they're so sure. i don't know that it's right for me to make that decision to take someone else's life. in philadelphia shannon's killer was still on the loose. the she wears pressed three answers but the police had none. is this like you're in a coma you mean you're just like walking through something but you you don't know exactly how you're going to deal with them how am i ever ever going to get through this. this is tremendous sense of loss and you know for some time i could visualize sheila go walking through

a door squawking in the house and walking through the door saying are dottie and she told me. she was so kind and generous and loving and helpful and she always would come to us and say mom dad i have to make a difference. shannon was living many things she had a tremendous appetite for learning everybody loved him and everybody loved her she was an extremely loving daughter. in their grief vicki and still turn to each other and reached out for support. just takes time and doesn't you know everybody goes down a different path in a different time line to this journey toward healing to begin attending support meetings for families of murder victims. there they saw the devastating toll of

sorrow and anger. the father of one of the murdered daughters we know well took his first drink and he never stopped or hear him and she lost his job in a marriage. but well just daughter was one of one hundred sixty six people killed in the timothy mcveigh bombing of oklahoma city. one night about a year later he woke up in the morning and he had this dream and his daughter julie was there telling him dad dad he murdered me are you going to let him murder her family. also saw the high price people paid for putting their lives on hold as they waited for an execution. we start finding out what murder victims' families go through if you decide to say look i want that man executed it would take fifteen twenty years as much longer for it actually to happen and we just saw the effects that this had on these family members we saw destroying their lives.

the way to the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. crossing the interstate just as they would a simple they want to because they enter another one the last one just about what if many of them look for refuge in the so-called sentry sites the drift used to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities. than. get them in a lot of that. they can watch as the options to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house. they also be hurt if they have to be about to be.

the push to put impulse response both. of you out the subject of the book. the leak. bucket and the bomb blast that all mothers see that the scuttle over. take gas water cannon and all made vehicles last congress this saturday the fourth consecutive weekend of so-called.
