Having lived in Fayetteville most of my life I don't feel that this community will use race as a motivation for using the death penalty. HOWEVER, statistically a black person is more likely to get the death penalty for killing a white person than if their victim had been black. It was simply a question for people to ask themselves. Murder, no matter what color you are is never justifiable. Is the death penalty? I find myself contradicted, as I am a supporter of the death penalty. Is it a worse punishment to have to wake up every morning knowing you are the person responsible for taking two lives? Would Mr. Decay wake up thinking this? Or is he waking up simply regretting he got caught? Mr Decay was given the chance to wake every morning and think about what he had done. He thought about it April 3, 2008. He was thinking clear enough to wipe the finger prints off, also pick up only one of the shell caseings, not both because he was trying to cover his ass! You can't try and think like a murderer. They have a different mentality than "normal" people. I know for a fact that he could have chose Life without parole, There are only two ways to punish someone who has been found guilty of two counts of capital murder, Death or Life Without Parole. Do we really care what color of skin someone has? I know that I don't, I wonder how Kevin and Kendall would feel if we could ask them what they wanted his punishment to be?

now im not saying tu was right...and my heart goes out to all victims in this crime. but people look at the facts. they were all smokers and drinkers and we don't know what happened. and the fact about new orleans as a people, who are you to judge us?

I also wonder what they would want his punishment to be. Would they have decided on the death penalty?
That is where my concern lies, as hypocritical as it sounds. Again, I am a supporter of the death penalty. This was a heinous crime that Mr.Decay has confessed to committing yet, I can't help but feel like the death penalty is wrong. I feel horrible for thinking that way, parents lost their children that are loved. I cannot bear to imagine losing mine. Does another parent have to lose a child? Even if her son's stupidity lead to the punishment.

Decay Friend, We do know what happened, the slurs about New Orleans people is horrible, but if you know "tu", why don't you give him a call and ask him what really went down? I know I would like to have that question answered. I thought "tu" had been sober for a few weeks prior, oh but that was another one of his lies, just like the stolen gun he murdered them with. You should have been at the trial, then some of your questions would have been answered, he murdered them, now he has to pay the price for killing two people. It is just that simple!

First and foremost. Tell me how can i call a prison and ask for tu? and about the sober for weeks, i said they WERE(past tense) all smokers, and Jesus paid the price a long time ago for any wrongdoing. I never said Tu was right, but that doesn't say the goverment is right for killings THOUSANDS of people in the war. How would you punish that, supporter? And again, my heart goes out to all families.

and again, supporter. when they sentenced him to death, will they go on trial for trying to kill Tu? And why not, because they can?

To call your "friend", Go to the web site Varners Super Max Prison, go to inmates, Death Row they will walk you right to his info. What does War have to do with this? Your Fried murdered two people, not for freedom, he murdrered two people for God knows what.

i did that mom, i got the info but where's the phone number? and war is not for freedom, because no one is knocking on my door and making me do ANYTHING. And let's call this war the WAR ON DRUGS. Did you know that drugs and guns are brothers, they stick tight. And the truth of the matter is the news tells one story, and forgot to say they were all drug users. what happened to that? and again, my heart goes out to all the victims in this crime.

Decay Friend, The news did say that all persons involved used marijuana. But only one person decided to pull the trigger of a gun and take 2 people's lives. He's on death row right now. Look what he's put his family through as well as the victims.

Oh here we go again...
decay friend, you obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Not real sure how this war talk got stuck in this conversation but let me make something REAL clear before we drop it.. this war IS about freedom. Our government has NOT killed thousands of people... the fact is that our soldiers are the only people that have backbones and have enough respect for our country to fight until death... you decay friend, do not have anyone knocking on your door to make you do anything because we have plenty enough solid Americans volunteering and fighting for YOU and everyone else in this country. We have killed way more than they have killed us... try to do some research instead of watching one news channel. We have done so much for them and I am sick of people like you acting as if we have done nothing. You should probably move to another country in my opinion if you're not going to support our troops and see how you like not having freedom.
Oh and another thing... lots of people use marijuana, but you don't see them all shooting each other. This is just about one big arrogant idiot who was disrespected and wanted to TRY to make an example of an innocent couple.

First of, innocent means free from legal guilt or fault. Weed is ILLEGAL. They may have been victims, but not innocent. And most of our SOLDIERS are fighting for tuition and bonus money and all the goverment offers. They are probably checking their account to make sure their direct deposit came in right now. And when it comes to the war, do you put your right or left shoe on first? Killing is Killing. No matter why, God said,"thou shall not kill." He didn't say except the war. And my ancestors built this country, but it's alright, you can stay. And you act as if I agree with this crime, im just saying if you impose that Tu gets killed. Who's right? No one. And again, my heart goes out to the families and victims.

My brother is currently on his 3rd tour in Mosul (one of the most dangerous places in Iraq) and let me tell YOU decay friend... he is NOT there for tuition and/or bonus money. He volunteered to be there each time because he feels it is his responsibility to help those in need and to fight for our rights. Sure, I would love for him to come home, considering he hasn't been home for longer than 2 weeks since the war started in 2001 but I at least know if he dies over there, he fought until death and with honor and he WILL be going to Heaven to join Kevin and Kendall. Shame on you! You probably think if we brought all of our troops home at once we'll have world peace, right? Oh and once that happens and we have yet another terrorist attack or crisis, people like you will probably blame our government yet again and ask, why didn't we do anything about this? Why did we not try to prevent this from happening again? Oh WAIT... oh that's right... we DID try until tree hugging hippies took over... You say that your ancestors built this country... well decay friend, it took war to make this country how it is. It took war to give you YOUR rights and YOUR freedom. If you don't like, why don't you move to Iraq, seems as if you're more supportive of our enemy. Surely you went to school and learned this, right?
Anyway, enough war talk for now... this is about Kevin and Kendall, two innocent people whether you agree or not. Like you said, innocent means free from legal guilt or fault... pretty sure they were doing their own thing and trying to start a great life for themselves before YOUR FRIEND came in and shot them point blank. That's all there was to it. I am not denying that they smoked marijuana but I will say that they were innocent people. If they were not innocent, would "tutu" be on death row? Probably not but it's the fact that they were innocent and Decay is paying for it.

I didn't, not till you told us, and what does smoking pot have to do with the fact that there are two people dead, and your friend in prision. He killed two people. What do you think his punishment should be? The two deaths have hurt so many people, and that includes you. I just wonder, what your opinion is.

First off, I pray that your brother makes it back safely. I'll never forget him for his braveheart. How about you join him? And in this country, im still not free. I don't want to pull the race card out but we were never given the oppurtunity to start companies that are still running from slave money. Meaning, we are still catching up to rules that were made while my ancestors were busy building and getting noosed. But I guess we shouldnt bring up my ancestors murderers. No that would be off the point.. We gone just forget about that. Nip it in the bud, we just gone talk about two murders and forget the thousands, lets do that.
FYI. His nickname is spelled Tuto.
And yes, lets get back to the crime. You act as if i agree with Tu. He knows that I dont agree. And you should know that too, if not, now you know. Tu is on lockdown for 24 hours a day. Don't you think that's enough? I thought to myself, and I told my mom. If someone was to kill me, I dont want them to die for it. Maybe life, get out when they old. But to kill someone else is just as bad. What would make me better if I want another dead. And again, my heart goes out to all victims.

dumbfounded,
what I do for a living? i use my thoughts to create my jobs. therefore, i make a living with my mind. to inspire others, that's what i do. im an inspirer. I thank God for that. And how dare you say i said Tu was a drug dealer. READ MY POSTS. Dont misquote me, please. And the truth of the matter is,(and i said this before) DRUGS and GUNS are brothers. They come together, or close by. I'm almost sure if the two VICTIMS wasn't pot users, they wouldn't know Tu. With that said, POT played a big role. No pot, no murder. They said the murder was about POT and a GUN. And yes, this whole situation hurts me to my heart. I think about it all the time. I would say that life in prison is still a tuff pill. Even though the crime calls for it. Don't kill no more children. It's not that you would be hurting Tu. But that will be another family without a son, brother, friend. May God give peace to all families. I know how it hurts.

The facts are this a= There was not any pot or guns found at Kendall's and Kevins apartment! b= Your friend could have had Life without Parole he did not want that. c= Don't kill no more children? Tu should have thought about that, It has been one year and three months to the day, that their bodies were found, by Kevin's MOTHER! d= Tu did not think about the grief that he created. e= My I wish you could have used your mind to create a job for your friend, then just maybe none of us would be on this forum! I have never heard that drugs and guns were brothers. I guess you and I see things in very different perspectives. I am also wonderering if Mr Westeen can shed some light on all of this, You do know that his trial is set for August 5th 2008.

We all know you can not call a convicted murderer, but you can write to your brother everyday if you wish. I am a thinker also, I think you are still drawing a government check, you know from the Katrina storm, that's why you are posting from Texas. I could be wrong, but I do think I saw you at your brothers murder trial. Did you know that some of his friends came into the court room with the word murderer on their jeans? Wow! I was stunned, and again my heart goes out to all the victims of the families

Dear Detective,
Let me tell you what I think. When I started reading your post, i said, detective has sense. Then I read the next sentence and you really let me down. You really did. Actually, i was in College when the goverment checks came and left. And honestly, they stopped helping a while back. And please be careful how you use the word drawing, my city lost a lot. And lot of tears have been shed. And we as a whole don't appreciate a remark like drawing. By the way, did you get your stimulas check? Are you still waiting for a check from the goverment? You know how that can get. And im not related to Tu, he is a friend and we do communicate. And no, I was not at the trial, so the whole jeans thing is new to me.

Decay friend Why do you not return to your beloved city, and take all the rest of your people with you! Oh Let's see, the US goverment is still paying for housing, and by the way My stimulas Check,I did receive, I earned every dollar, I work on an average of about 50 hrs. a week, and I had to pay for my education, with my own money, no US goverment hand out!
