Good!!
He will have a much easier death than he gave to Jessica Lunsford.
No tears will be shed for John Couey.
INVERNESS — John Couey will die by lethal injection for the brutal 2005 murder of Jessica Marie Lunsford of Homosassa, a judge ruled today.
The death sentence is something Jessica’s family hoped for.
“I think he needs to stand up and be a man now and take his death penalty . . . and I hope he rots in hell,” Mark Lunsford said, just a day after his daughter’s body was found buried in a shallow grave on March 19, 2005.
Couey, 49, got his death sentence from Circuit Judge Richard Howard at a 2 p.m. sentencing hearing at the Citrus County Courthouse.
Lunsford, along with his parents Archie and Ruth Lunsford also attended the hearing. The courtroom also was packed with law enforcement officials including Citrus County Sheriff Jeff Dawsy, who spearheaded the investigation. [source]

Lethal injection? The state of Florida is too freakin’ lenient…
That mf’er should be lethally injected into his testicles with acid, bleach, bacon grease and tabasco sauce…repeat every 10 minutes until he’s gone…

:heart: He should be treated just like Little Jessie was I say throw him into a room of gay men taking only Jessie’s picture with him and after he has been raped 100 or so times bury him alive with Jessie’s pic.
Leland says:
So, then according to you, we should rape and torture Couey? And then that would make us just like him. And that would make you just like Couey. I choose to opt out of your death and torture fest.
Vinnie says:
Okay, opt out if you want, but don’t come crying to us if you’re being raped and buried alive.
“Honey, what’s that noise?”
“I think Leland is being raped and buried alive.”
“Oh, who won America’s Got Talent?”
See, that makes me just like YOU!

How many of these freaks are walking the plantet? Death is too merciful for what he did.
raz0r says:
If I may, since I’m from the area this happened - woo hoo!!!!!!
Leland - I’m all for digging a hole and shoveling the dirt back on top of him. My preferred method would be to slowly drown him in a tub. Or skin him and dangle him from the Gandy Bridge (lots of bull sharks in the water), all while the brine washes over his exposed flesh. I will sleep just fine. I’m upset that his junkies roommates got nothing. They should be getting a killer cocktail with him.
And Nigel, a great many of us “Natives”, as we’re called, lament the passing of Ol’ Sparky. There used to be parties everytime a scumbag got to sit in the old hot seat.
