" Associate press sort about a woman named Cheryl way it's. Is one of several victims' relatives who are going to go and watch the execution tonight. Unless Virginia governor Tim -- steps then. Nothing. As of now and what Lee Boyd malveaux the -- you did the teenager. Did confess. That at Mohammed's direction. He shot Cheryl -- his father Jerry Taylor. On a Tucson Arizona golf course. In march of 2002 so it started in Tacoma. We know that they killed somebody in Tucson. We have. The the question about the Billie Jean Dillon who was shot today at forty miles north of Dallas in May of 2002. We've got to and it is you ago -- at the fingerprints on the in biblical story Alabama. And then we go through the three weeks in Maryland and Virginia. All ending on October 24 2002. I gotta. Tell you something I'm looking at this and going. That they were finally caught. Seven years and about two weeks ago. And in today's world of capital punishment. This is fast. This is very fast because there are people is sitting on death rows around the country that'd been -- for 10152025. Years. Now of course you're always gonna get the death penalty. Opponents that are going to be protest in this outside. Of the prison. And they say this is all this is all been working because of the fact that. -- John Mohammed was. Sentenced. Two to prison and his his circle are the prime Lee Boyd Malvo. Got life without the possibility of parole. So the people are safe. One of -- one of the things about the death penalty dead these why. I have always found that most people support. Is because if you if you worded just very differently very carefully just slightly different. You get a dramatically different answer. And that is that it's it's it's survey after survey after survey. They say do you support the death penalty yes by about two out of three people. About two thirds. Would you support the death penalty if you are were absolutely. Guaranteed beyond any shadow of any doubt. That the person would never get out of prison. All of a sudden the support to the death penalty dropped dramatically. People do not trust the judicial system. To keep heinous killers behind bars. Not only every day do we release from our nation's prisons. Every day to swinging door. Hundreds if not thousands of very very dangerous felons are released from prisons every single day. All among those are people that have committed murder in the past and they're getting out. And that's why the death penalty is. Some people argue about well -- to does this is that as a deterrent which I don't believe any of that stuff. I just think it simply people. Don't trust that they will be kept behind bars and if they are ever let out again. Their animals and they will kill again and there will be an innocent life taken -- again. There's no question John Allen Mohammed that it is is an animal. For him to design this in to drive across the country. With this vehicle that was equipped. So that a shooter could hide in the trunk and fire through a hole. In the back of the car. Is obviously. A very very very very very sick man. So the death penalty is going to be imposed upon him. So that there isn't any death penalty imposed by him on anybody else is already killed. We don't know how many people we know at least ten. At least ten. So how many more do we need to take the chance of but here's the question of the hour for. We've got this woman. Whose father Jerry Taylor was shot and killed on this golf course in Tucson in March 2002. She is going to. Witness the execution tonight. Her answers to the question why. Is she said he basically watched my dead breathe his last breath. Why sure and I watch his last breath. Would you go to an execution. You go to just anybody's execution would you go to the execution of somebody who killed your father. A loved one the your mother your sister brother. Daughter son. And if so why booted help with closure. Would -- be for vengeance. Would it be to guarantee that you know that they will never be able to harm another individual."
