'Appropriate Result'

" Learned within the last hour the Virginia governor Tim Kaine has denied clemency to convicted DC beltway sniper. John Allen Mohammed that clears the way for his execution tonight. Mohammed's deadly shooting spree gripped the nation for weeks back in 2002. As did his trial. Maryland attorney general Douglas -- led the joint sniper task force and successfully prosecuted Mohammed. And his accomplice Lee Boyd malveaux he joins us now. Mr. guest for the governor has said no the US Supreme Court has said no does that mean this at execution absolutely will take place. Yes you know those last two avenues of recourse another -- exhausted so. Yeah -- seven years after the incident six years after the first trial Virginia and and and this is a program result there are an awful lot of people who say good riddance to a guy who killed so many people and terrorized so many people. But you have to feel for some of the people who think he may be suspected of murders of their loved ones in places like. Louisiana. Alabama Arizona Texas. Murders that he was never convicted for never has fessed up to what -- say to those people."

" Washington State Georgia another yes no it's an absolute. It's a reality what happened was he traumatize terrorized. And really paralyzed the community in the Washington. Heard about for those 22 days but in getting here. Mohammed a novel coming from the state of Washington came across the country on a killing spree. Before they got here and unfortunately. Those families. They do know what happened we've we've spoken with that what we tried to do. Was got to get a global resolution of this case some of the people in Virginia the prosecutors -- decided they did not wanna go. Forward with that but at least the families do have an understated what happened the reason why they have that. Is because the younger man malveaux. And after a few years after got away from Mohammed. Told us basically what happened how it happened why it happened from day one up until the vote they were captured in Frederick Maryland. Malveaux is serving a life is there any possibility of parole for him. Now there is not he will spend the rest of his life in a cage if you remember when they first. Were caught we still had the ability to execute juveniles of that time he was a juvenile. At the time of these shootings Virginia try to decades there were not successful on the capital portion of the case. He was then sent them are only got six life -- president's without the possibly -- and he will be in -- thrust of his life. There are well his attorneys said that he is mentally ill I'm talking about John Mohammed now what are your thoughts on that. Well look everybody who kill somebody who's willing particular somebody's going to look through the scope of high powered rifle. And shoot people indiscriminately you know mothers fathers daughters funds for without actually any motive other than to commit terror. Is clearly different than the rest of us having said that he was by no means close to. The -- even in terms of insanity or legal insanity as it as a war he's different he's you know and these in these deserves about what he did he. If whether or not -- believe the death -- or not. If you had a death penalty which they do in Virginia and they do in Maryland. This is -- poster child for the death penalty and the fact is he was committing these crimes essentially for money this was a gigantic extortion plot right he was trying to get the state or somebody to pay him. To stop the killings. You sort of I mean this is actually the first killings -- in the state of Washington then you mentioned Arizona Texas Louisiana Alabama Georgia coming up. Here none of them were for money they were a couple more robberies kind of for you know pocket money and then eventually after he had -- and had this community is -- Then and only then was the first time it's an extortion note for ten million dollars from the government -- really. An after thought it was really to terrorize the community and it was almost like -- hunting spree if you will for humans it was a sick sick insidious crimes. It is scheduled for this evening the execution of John Allen Mohammed Douglas chancellor one of those who helped put him behind bars the attorney general there thinks there."
