Chapter 558 You are not an angel, nor the embodiment of justice
William, who had nothing to do, finished his breakfast and drove to Bilton Prison near New York. He came to the prison registration office and showed the special invitation prepared on Sunday.
The prison guards only checked whether there were any dangerous items on William's body and then let him into the execution room wearing a mask and baseball cap.
As soon as they came in, they saw Rupert Mick, who was shaking slightly with fear, Mick's chief prosecutor Nick Reese, and some ordinary people who were invited.
To be honest, William really thought that these ordinary Americans and Americans who came to watch the execution were typical examples of people who had enough to eat and nothing to do. They would actually accept the invitation from the prison to watch the death process of others.
Looking at the dozen men and women with serious expressions and tight bodies, he jokingly hoped that these people wouldn't wet their pants in fear.
After a while, the warden walked into the execution room and said to Mick who was fixed on the cross bed, "Rupert Mick, is there anything else you want to say?"
"Yes, yes, sir, I have something to say, of course I have something to say." Mick endured fear and stammered tremblingly, "I, I have to admit that I did do something wrong ten, ten years ago.
,I, I shouldn’t be a part of society, let alone follow that scoundrel Clarence Dobby to that poor man’s home,
But I swear to God, I am guilty, but the person who should be lying here today should not be me, but Clarence Dobby, because he killed the woman and the child.
And I'm just a poor guy who hides away in fear and doesn't know what to do. Now all the evil has befallen me, but the real culprit is at large outside, so I don't accept it."
After speaking, Mick stared at Nick Reese and said, "I curse you, Nick Reese, you are not an angel, let alone the embodiment of justice. You are just a villain who ignores justice and facts for the sake of your own reputation.
You will go to hell like me, because you let the people who deserved go free, but sent the people who didn't deserve to die to the execution stand. God is my witness, everything I said is true, Nick Reese, I will go to hell.
waiting for you".
"Coaxing", is there such a drama? There is a tradition in the United States. Before going to the road, prisoners on death row must receive psychological counseling. It is best for those who go to Xingtai to finish their lives without resentment.
Therefore, as the person cursed by Mick, Nick Reese immediately became the focus of attention. Everyone at the scene followed Mick's gaze and looked at the black-faced Nick Reese. Fortunately, he was originally a black charcoal.
His face is hard to tell, but it's true that it's darker.
Nick Reese didn't pay attention to the looks of other people, but how could he not feel upset after being cursed so viciously? If it was true as Mick said, then he would be the sinner who let the real culprit go.
But then I thought about it, isn't it normal for those people who were sent to prison by me to hate me and want to make me sick before they die?
So Nick Reese quickly ignored Mick's words and turned to look at his colleagues. Seeing that his colleagues were a little nervous, he asked with concern, "Sarah, if you feel uncomfortable, you can go out and wait for us."
"No, Nick, it's okay." Sarah Lowell smiled reluctantly and shook her head to indicate that she was okay, "I have been following you for more than ten years, and I am no longer a rookie.
And you told me that lethal injection is a painless death penalty, as if the prisoner fell asleep, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Looking at Sarah's pleading eyes, Nick could only say, "Okay, since you insist, then so be it."
Turning around, I felt a little strange, because Sarah had been working with him for more than ten years, and today was the first time that Sarah took the initiative to watch an execution.
But at this time, apart from doubts, Nick couldn't find anything suspicious at the moment.
Just as he was thinking about it, a figure suddenly flashed in his mind. When he turned to talk to Sarah just now, out of the corner of his eye he saw a person wearing a mask and a baseball cap in the back row.
Over the years, Nick has attended the execution sites of all the death row prisoners he has caught. Of course, he has seen all kinds of people visiting, but he has never seen anyone wearing a mask and a hat to cover his face on such an occasion.
people,
Thinking of this, Nick couldn't help but turn around and look back at William, who was sitting in the last row.
It only took a moment for Nick to figure out that this man was very young, that he was covered in handmade clothes, and that his watch was worth more than a million dollars, and he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
No one like this kind of rich young man would come to visit the execution ceremony out of boredom.
Just as he was about to ask his colleague William's identity, he heard the warden say to the prison guard, "It's time, let's get started."
"God" was tied to the cross bed. Robert Mick looked at the lights above his head and listened to the sound of prison guards moving around. He knew he had no time.
Looking at everything around him with fascination, he muttered with a fearful expression, "Forgive me, I should have stopped all that that night, forgive me, forgive my cowardice, Mr. Sheldon."
With a "click" sound, the prison guard opened the execution machine with the key, and then pressed the switch with the warden's nod.
Everything went according to the established procedure, "squeak", and the machine began to automatically inject the lethal substance into Rupert Mick's body.
According to the normal procedures in the past, Mick should soon fall asleep slowly and then die unconscious in his sleep, but everything changed when Clyde Sheldon began to take revenge.
"Ah, ah, ah", Mick, who was supposed to be unconscious, suddenly let out a scream of pain. His hands and feet that were fixed began to struggle violently, with veins popping up all over his body and his eyes red. This process took three minutes to end.
Finally, dark red liquid began to ooze from Mick's body.
"God", everyone who was watching stood up in fright, and some women were so frightened that they cried. The prison guards and men at the scene quickly escorted these people out.
Sarah Lowell rushed out of the death chamber while gagging.
In the end, there were only two prison guards in the whole room who were staring at Rupert Mick, the warden, Nick Reese and William.
There was a sarcastic look on William's lips. It was easy to find some clues that no one else knew about in William on a Sunday. Sarah Lowell who ran out just now was the main reason why Clarence Dobby was able to escape the crime.
After Clarence Dobie was captured, his men not only threatened the forensic examiner who investigated the scene, but also approached Sarah Lowell's boyfriend.
In the end, under the cover of the medical examiner and Sarah Lowell, an assistant to prosecutor Nick Reese, many of Clarence Dobie's incriminating evidences were rejected by the judge at the time as not complying with the procedures.
In this way, Clarence Dobie, who was supposed to be executed, was sentenced to only ten years as an accessory because of insufficient evidence.
And Sheldon's wife and daughter really died, then Rupert Meeker would be treated as the principal culprit, otherwise the case would not be closed.
Therefore, Sarah Lowell deliberately arrived today, and was so frightened that she almost vomited after seeing Rupert Meeker's tragic condition.
No, I was definitely scared, but more importantly, I felt guilty and guilty.
