James Aren Duckett (born September 4, 1957)[1] is an American convicted child murderer, sex offender, and suspected serial killer sentenced to death in Florida. Duckett, a former police officer under the Mascotte Police Department, was charged with the kidnapping, rape and murder of 11-year-old Teresa Mae McAbee on May 11, 1987. Duckett was said to have abducted the girl, who was raped and later strangled to death, and her body was found abandoned near a lake. Apart from McAbee's murder, Duckett is also a suspect in the 1987 unsolved murder of 14-year-old Jeanifer Shyan Weldon and 22-year-old Ronette Lynn Peterson in 1986. Duckett was convicted of McAbee's murder and sentenced to death. He is set to be executed on July 28, 2026.

The second one abused his wife then shot her parents to death while drunk.

Lol, this comment seemed to be going in a sensible direction and then just wildly diverged into sheer lunacy.

Mob "justice" is even worse, by a long shot, than judicial execution. The mob doesn't conduct trials, or review evidence or hold an appeals process. It just kills people and, very frequently, kills people who are not guilty.

There should be a procedure for those who simply existing is a treath, hitler being the most common example. You couldnt imagine a world where he is kept alive and prison at the same time so the only option is to kill him. But that is usually already dealt with extrajudicially. Were all biased, i want the oslo terrorist to die a horrible fucking death and preferably go to hell but someone with a more level headed view will have a thousand arguments against why thats bad and i accept it has to be this way cause we cant judge who lives and who doesnt. As infuriating as it can feel, norway not having a life sentence is the correct approach, someone who has, acknowledged, repented, atoned for and works against their crimes and also reformed should have the right to be free. I still feel like there should be something that draws a line between anyone else and the oslo killer but the problem is all my arguments come from places of utter disgust and hate against him rather than from a logical place.

Yeah. It's so unnecessary. "The threat has been neutralized. ...Now let's kill him."
