    Jodi "V" Rell Threatens "Hang 'Em High" Veto on DP

    Friday May 22, 2009

    It didn't take Gov. Jodi Rell very long to drop her usual "I need to read the bill" deferral of reporters questions and use the word "veto" in a sentence to describe what she wants to do with the death-penalty repeal that the Senate finally voted at 4:11 a.m. today.
    The Blogster was surprised that the legislation got so far this year and now, unlike the governor, realizes it's only a matter of time before the state joins all it's surrounding neighbors and all New England states but New Hampshire, in dumping the death penalty in favor of life in prison without the possibility of release for Connecticut's most-violent killers.
