The executioners all volunteered for the job

Something wrong with all of them. Five executioners all volunteering for the nasty job. Hope they all get neuroses after wards.

Well yeah I know, its Utah and all of that dumb redneck shit. But this is a very negative emotion: The desire to cap some dumb son of a bitch. Just to put a notch in the sadist's belt.

The executioners were all certified police officers who volunteered for the task and remain anonymous. They stood about 25 feet from Gardner, behind a wall cut with a gunport, and were armed with a matching set of .30-caliber Winchester rifles. One was loaded with a blank so no one knows who fired the fatal shot. Sandbags stacked behind Gardner's chair kept the bullets from ricocheting around the cinderblock room.

Moments before the shooting, Gardner was asked if he wanted to say anything. "I do not, no," he responded.

At least ways it seems that Utah won't be sending any more felons to the firing squad. Lethal injection from now on.

So the business of death can be carried out by doctors. You know, the people who work to save lives.

Ugly.
