Not all that long,TheKindExecutioner...its last execution was only last year when Martin Link,47,was executed in February 2011 for the murder of Elissa Self, and Missouri handed out no new death sentences in 2011. (see the post marked 'Listing of 2011 US Death Sentences). Also, that execution was only the second since Marlin Gray,38,was executed in October 2005. We both know that Missouri's post-Furman capital punishment heyday has passed,really.
