Broken Laws Bring Penalties - William C Bradford - August 18, 1979

William C Bradford

Now we saw in Florida... A couple of months ago, a man who was executed. The name of John Spenkelink. He was the first man to be executed in Florida against his will. Many people protested and felt that he shouldn't have been, but it's cruel, inhumane for a man to die by the hands of men under what we call justice or a system of law. Even Gary Gilmore in Utah, I think it was last year, a little bit longer than that, who wanted to be executed was stopped by people who just couldn't bear to think about a person dying. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
