Better late than never. The execution of a white supremacist [aka douche nozzle] Daniel Lewis Lee, 47, took place Tuesday, at 8:07 a.m. in Indiana.
Lee tortured and killed an Arkansas family, one of whom was an 8-year-old girl, and it only took the federal government 24 years to give him what he clearly deserved.
This was the first execution to get the go-ahead by the feds since 2003. He was given a lethal dose of pentobarbital.
The murders occurred in 1996 after Lee and an accomplice robbed and shot William Frederick Mueller, his wife Nancy Ann Mueller, and their 8-year-old stepdaughter, Sarah Elizabeth Powell, in Arkansas.
The bodies of him and his family were discovered five months after they went missing. There were plastic bags covering their heads and sealed with duct tape. The bodies dumped in the Illinois bayou.
Leftist legal proceedings stalled the execution at the U.S. Penitentiary in Terre Haute, Indiana several times.
Hours before he was slated to die, the Supreme Court in a 5-4 vote overruled a lower courts order to delay four executions scheduled for July and August. You can guess who voted for what.
Liberal Judge Tanya Chutkan of the U.S. district court in Washington had issued the preliminary injunction against the executions. She cited issues with the lethal injection methods used by the government, fearful the injection might kill Lee, but the Supreme Court disagreed with her ruling.

Liberal Judge Tanya Chutkan of the U.S. district court in Washington had issued the preliminary injunction against the executions. She cited issues with the lethal injection methods used by the government, fearful the injection might kill Lee, but the Supreme Court disagreed with her ruling.
“The government has produced competing expert testimony of its own, indicating that any pulmonary edema occurs only after the prisoner has died or been rendered fully insensate,” the Supreme Court said in their ruling. The liberals didn't want Lee to suffer as much as the Mueller's did.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit also overturned an injunction put in place last week by a district court after the family of the victims said the coronavirus would pose a health risk to them and prevent them from exercising their right to attend the execution at the prison, where several people have been infected with COVID-19.
Attorneys for Lee and members of the victim's family have long fought for Lee to get a life sentence and not be put to death but instead, he's getting what he gave, but with more humanity than he rendered to the family.
Attorney General William Barr told The Associated Press in recent days that he believes the Bureau of Prisons could “carry out these executions without being at risk.”

Except for those people having their sentences finally carried out.
The agency has put a number of additional measures in place, including temperature checks and requiring witnesses to wear masks.
The execution is the first after the Trump administration announced last year it would be making a return back to capital punishment methods.
Two more executions are scheduled this week.

Wesley Ira Purkey |
Wesley Ira Purkey is scheduled to be executed on Wednesday. Purkey raped and dismembered a teenage girl then burned her body in 1998.
Dustin Lee Honken is scheduled to die on Friday.
In 2004, Honken, 52, was convicted of killing five people, including two girls ages 10 and 6, their mother and two men. Judge Chutkan thinks he doesn't deserve to die.
Keith Dwayne Nelson |
The fourth scumbag, Keith Dwayne Nelson, 46, is scheduled to be executed in August. He kidnapped, raped and then strangled a 10-year-old child, Pamela Butler, to death in Texas. Days later, the child's body was found in a wooded area behind a church in Grain Valley. Autopsy results showed she was raped and strangled to death with a wire. He was linked to the crime two years later through his DNA.
Sorry, I don't care what kind of childhoods these scum muffins had. They are getting what they gave, but with less pain than their victims.
If a society cannot protect their babies, their children from this menace, the society will eventually fail to thrive and not exist.
