The death-penalty trial of Juan Leonardo Quintero, 34, opened this morning as prosecutors told jurors the illegal immigrant is a "cold-blooded killer" for executing Houston Police Officer Rodney Johnson.
Johnson had stopped Quintero for speeding and arrested him for not having a driver's license. As Johnson worked on a report in the front seat of his patrol car, Quintero, who was handcuffed and locked in the back seat, pulled a pistol from his waistband that was overlooked in a search. He shot Johnson four times in the head.
According to court records, Quintero was convicted of driving while intoxicated and received deferred adjudication for indecency with a child before he was deported in 1999.

I think they should strap him to the gerney and insert the needle. This guy is a cool blooded killer.

I hope the family sues the scum employer for enabling him to come into this country and facilitating the murder.
aboutfrikkintime wrote: think of it this way, he has a long list of priors including child molestation, he was deported before and came back, he is scum and doesn't deserve the right to breath, think of his victims and their families, now how would you feel knowing he is in prison getting 3 squares, and job training, and watching sports or surfing the net? Come on I am a firm believer in the death penalty, unfortunatly leathal injection is too good for this guy, shoot him in the back of his head...eye for an eye....
THIS GUY IS LOWER THAN SCUM!!! EXCUTE HIM AS AN EXAMPLE TO OTHERS!!! IN FACT, A PUBLIC EXECUTION MIGHT BE JUST THE THING!!!
I will keep abreast of this story and post more later.
“When contemplating college liberals, you really regret once again that John Walker is not getting the death penalty. We need to execute people like John Walker in order to physically intimidate liberals, by making them realize that they can be killed, too. Otherwise, they will turn out to be outright traitors.” - Ann Coulter

I've dislike one-man crews for the police. They came about as a cost-cutting measure and have stayed on since. If there had been two officers this would not have happened. Police Officers and the military are two of the only jobs that one mistake could cost you your life. I sure as hell don't want to hear about this scumbag living in prison sucking up government bennies. He needs to be executed.
Law and Order Teacher: I never understood WHY they patrol by themselves. Hell, I am leary when I have duty at school by myself.
