Should We Kill? The Ethics of the Death Penalty - Richard Tucker Jr.
Richard Tucker, Jr. was sentenced to death for the kidnapping, rape, and murder of Edna Sandefur, a retired nurse. He was electrocuted on May 29, 1987.
Should we have killed this man for his crimes?
Was there a better alternative?

This a very serious question because it raises a number of other questions that require us all to examine ourselves and to examine our motives when it comes to revenge and retribution.
Is an eye for eye really our right? How does killing another settle any score? If one has taken the life of another how do we live in harmony with the one who remains?
