    David Scott Franks - Georgia Death Row



    Facts of the Crime:

    Was sentenced to death for an August 1994 rampage in which he stabbed to death a Hall County woman and injured her two children. The jury found Franks guilty of 12 felonies in connection with the murder of 35-year-old Deborah Wilson and the stabbing of her two children, ages 13 and 9. Franks is also accused of shooting to death Deborah Wilson's husband, Clinton, and his helper, David Martin, just hours earlier in the basement of his pawnshop in Haralson County. He has not been tried on those charges.

    Don't ask questions, just consume product and then get excited for next products.

    "They will hurt you. They will hurt your grandma, these people. The root cause of this is there's no discipline in the homes, they don't go to school, you know, they live off the government, no personal accountability, and they just beat people up for no reason, and it's disgusting." - Former Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters

    In today's opinions, the 11th Circuit DENIED Franks' appeal. The panel was made up of William Pryor (G.W. Bush), Newsom (Trump), and Marcus (Clinton).

    So that's 3 GA inmates denied in 2 days. Has that ever happened before?

    It's only Wednesday.
    "There is a point in the history of a society when it becomes so pathologically soft and tender that among other things it sides even with those who harm it, criminals, and does this quite seriously and honestly. Punishing somehow seems unfair to it, and it is certain that imagining ‘punishment’ and ‘being supposed to punish’ hurts it, arouses fear in it." Friedrich Nietzsche
