    Given that Mississippi has got at least one dose for a lethal injection execution, is it possible to know why nobody there is seeking execution dates for those inmates who have already exhausted appeals?

    I think there is a lawsuit against their lethal injection protocoll pending. Once the lawsuit is denied, Mississippi can request execution dates for the inmates who have exhausted their appeals.

    What did we say about abusing the gift of prophecy, now?
    Violence and death seem to be the only answers that some people understand.

    Court dismisses death row inmate’s execution request

    By Rachel Hernandez
    12 WJTV

    On Friday, May 20, the Mississippi Supreme Court dismissed death row inmate Blayde Grayson’s request for his execution date to be set immediately.

    Grayson filed the request in December 2021. The request stated that he wished to end all of his appeals and that he wished for his execution date to be set immediately. However, his attorney asked for his request to be withdrawn.

    In response, the Court remanded the matter to the George County Circuit Court to make an on-the-record statement of his wishes.

    The hearing was held on April 11, 2022. Grayson stated that he did not wish to end his appeals and wanted to continue to pursue his federal habeas corpus action.

    The court dismissed his original request.

    Grayson was convicted of capital murder in 1997 for the stabbing death the previous year of 78-year-old Minnie Smith during a home burglary George County.

    "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
