I don't get how one person can kill three people and get life and often even less and another person can kill one person and be given the death sentence
Lawyers, in particular; so, so many people on death row relied on public defenders, whereas people with the money to hire their own attorneys often get more lenient sentences.
Social Justice Warrior that data you need is useless. We have the procedure of due process, THAT is the deciding factor in determining guilt. The death penalty is the price paid for committing the crime.
I think its the circumstances, Napoleon flat out executed the man, You don't shoot someone in the head twice by accident. It was a conscious extinguishing of someones life on their own property, no mental illnesses about it.
I might feel better with life. Knowing someone will die slowly never knowing their date as they watch all their family members age and die to be left alone behind wire and bars and to feel death coming and knowing you did nothing with your life. Seems like a good punishment
Today, Napoleon Beazley wouldn’t have been executed, following Roper vs Simmons, which established that nobody can be legally executed for crimes committed before the age of 18.
@@banking-cartelmedia-cartel7206 and he wasn't innocent and he never claimed to be. He was young and made a mistake and shouldn't have been executed though.
He was on death row for 6years, (the stress + seclusion and lack of sleeps, really disrupt one's body) this man was around 23-24. You can also compare any president 4-8 years before their first terms and last, same stress age you quickly
My biological mother abandoned me when I was 2 then initiated a sexual relationship with me when I was 18. A few months after my father died tragically. My biological mother is a POS.
This is coming from a 17 year old: All of these older people saying "he was only 17, we all make mistakes at that age" and "he was 17, he didn't know what he was doing" really piss me off. They must not remember being a 17 year old very well, if I went out and killed another human being while carjacking that said person, it doesn't matter if I'm 17, I know damn well what I'm doing and deserve to suffer the consequences. Don't defend me by saying "he was only 17" there is a damn reason why you're considered a legal adult by the age of 18. It's because by the time you get to be that age, you usually have a decent understanding of the world you are in. And a 17 year old is only 12 months away from being 18, so why would 1 year make a difference? You still, at the age of 17, understand very well what the action of killing another human being entails, you destroy that person's family, you destroy your own family because now you're a murderer, you destroy what that person might have accomplished in their life, and you took away the rest of that persons time left on Earth. Sure, we make mistakes, but that does not mean we don't understand or think about the consequences of doing something before we do it, especially something as serious as taking another human beings life, it just means that we have a tendency to misjudge an action or make the wrong decision based on lack of experience, not that we don't damn well know that that said action is wrong. Do not defend a 17 year old solely because they are 17 years old, you either don't remember being 17, or are dishonest with yourself and others.
Docter Yoda You're pretty smart for a kid. And, YOU ARE still a kid at 17. You're right, tho. I did some shit, when I was young, but to shoot and kill for robbery purposes, no way. That takes some cold-bloodedness, man. Now, having said that, I'm only for the death penalty for the "worse of the worst" cases. The guys (and women), who have done inhuman things. The people we won't let our kids be kids, for. When I was a little kid in the 60's, we'd be, like, 6 years old, riding our bikes by ourselves. Then, the serial killers came out and now...... But, personally, Napoleon Beazley shoulda got life. He killed the wrong dude, well, he shouldn't have killed ANYBODY, but his victim was a judge's father. That's why he didn't get life, with no parole.
@@WeThePeeps13 I agree that I am still a kid, and I will probably continue to be one until my early to mid twenties like most people. But still, somebody as young as 10 is absolutely capable of commiting an evil and horrendous act as is seen in the case of Jon Venables and Robert Thompson who kidnapped and tortured a two year old child to death in 1993. And I agree with you in the fact that the death penalty should only be reserved for the worst of the worst, but I believe it should only be an option when there is undeniable evidence that they did it, so that there is no chance of a falsely convicted person being executed. And yes, I hate that a child can't go outside their house nowadays without their parents watching them like a hawk. Back in the early 2000's my family had a house in what was (and is) a pretty good neighborhood, but for some reason I was never allowed to go to the park down the street very often. I later found out that the reason why was because the guy who lived on the street corner was a registered sex offender, and because of that I (understandably) wasn't able to go outside without my parents having to watch me and my siblings like a hawk. It's people like that who ruin it for everybody else. But yeah, people who just commit murder like Napoleon Beazley, and not anything overly cruel or heinous, like torture or serial killing, should just get life in prison. It's just that the sole defense for what he did is that he was 17 when he did it, and that pisses me off.
I can't be bothered to read your rant justifying the murder of a juvenile by the state of Tex-ass . The youngest killed by Texas was 14 - that would have really got your juices flowing. You could use up a whole box of kleenex getting yourself off on the killing of a boy in the electric chair.
I really dislike the death penalty, not because the state kills monster but because they could very well kill an innocent man. I believe like 2% of people on death row are innocent in some estimations. Better life with out the possibility of parole IMO.
@jord heinz I'm not saying these are good people. If the justice system can prove these are the true killers 100% of the time, sure kill them all, I won't loose sleep over these monsters deaths. But the problem is they don't do that, sometimes the jury or prosecuter messes up and a innocent man is put on the chopping block and then what? Is the life of an innocent man worth the death of these monsters? I say no, life without the possibility of parole is the way to go I think, that way new evidence can later be brought forward and these innocent people can be exonerated. And don't think these monster are living in good conditions dude. Prison in the US isn't meant to be pleasant. These people will rot in a cell for the rest of their lives.
Witnessing that many people die, can seriously put a mental strain on your life. Imagine going to work to witness people die day in and day out, stuff like that can serious fuck with your head. I got mad respect for this man.
Hardly a mention of the man he put two bulllets in his head. In his own garage. What about his family? You shoot a person in the head at 17,your old enough to die too.
Firstly, it's you're not your - which already tells me that you're halfway stupid. The state killing someone is wrong but killing a juvenile is doubly wrong, but your lack of morals can't get you to see that

No one will ever know but I believe we just stop existing. We’re just bags of blood and bone, I think we just cease to exist.
@@ferce889 frankly, it is very disrespectful and inconsiderate that you would equate the death penalty to a grudge. Can't you use the same logic for the entire justice system? Is giving a bank robber prison time holding a grudge? Is taking the driver's license from a DUI holding a grudge? NO! People make choices and they suffer the consequences.
@@YHWHsam The cause and effect philosophy that is so common to the death penalty fails to recognize that people are not robots, which is obvious from this video. You bear responsibility for your choices but these choices are make based on the sum of life up to then. That sum starts in childhood, which is when you develop most of what makes you "you" but have little say in where, with who, or how it is done. The death penalty is sanctioned revenge killing. If it is so necessary then it should be preformed eye to eye between the convicted and whoever is asking for it, not sitting in a chair behind glass while the government flips a switch.
I don't have a strong stance for or against the penalty. I just don't understand how someone who rapes, tortures and kills children should get the same punishment as someone who kills in the heat of passion, for example. Some crimes are so heinous, death is the only fitting punishment IN MY OPINION.
The problem is that it does not seem to do anything, I mean it does not deter crime, cost twice as much as life's imprisonment, so what's the positive? some kind of revenge? what does that get you in the long term?
The kid pretty much executed the guy with two shots to the head at point blank. That's not an accident. The kid got what he deserved. Why did they show the kids crying family? What about the murdered guy's family? Why do they try to make us feel sorry for the killer?
Well done for stating the obvious. You and Texas are a special kind of cruel if you think killing children is morally justified. The youngest murdered by the state was 14 and later found to be innocent - you never mention those children in your warped rants.
Nothing about the poor innocent man that was murdered. What about his family? Him or his family won't get a second chance. Do this type of crime, you have to be prepared to pay for it. May God have mercy on both their souls.
Don't bring God into you getting off on the murder of a juvenile by the state - the warped state of tex-ass. The youngest murdered by Tex-ass was 14 - you could have got through a whole box of kleenex cleaning up after getting yourself off on his execution.
LOL. "Hell when I was 17 I made some mistakes" Yeah, like, wagged some classes at school maybe or got into a school yard fight. Breaking into someones house with a gun, shooting them twice in the head and stealing their car isn't a 'mistake'.
McDuff killed 3 , he got paroled , he was white Then he killed 3 more , he was sentenced to death This black dude was sentenced for killing a person when he was a minor Fucked up America, from an Indian
@@adithyabhat4770 I'm not here to say whether it's right or wrong that he got the death penalty, nor make comparisons to cherry picked court cases and make this about skin color. I'm just saying that you can't play something as serious as that off as being a 'mistake'. Forgetting to put the milk back in the fridge is a mistake. Breaking into someones house, shooting them in the head and stealing their car is being a murderous criminal.
But it's not something that merits the death penalty, is his point. If the victim was shot twice in the head, then death was at least swift and there should have been minimal suffering compared to other ways to die. And if the motivation for the crime was theft and not the glee of inflicting violence purely for the sake of violence, then it's not even on the same level of viciousness as, say, a serial killer who makes specific advance plans to extinguish life for pleasure. It was a horrible crime and it was a wrong decision that deserved punishment, but many people have been murdered in thefts gone sideways-- We don't put them to death, and the idea of condemning a minor to death is outrageous. One of the points of prison besides punishment is supposed to be remediation, and if a minor who doesn't even have a brain that's fully developed physically, intellectually, and emotionally, isn't the best candidate for reconditioning into a correctly functioning member of society, then I don't know who is. This was a terrible thing all around.
@@adithyabhat4770I'm glad to see you noticed that correlation also. Race relations in the US are still in the toilet in many places, despite this being the "post" age. I witness it with alarming regularity. And based on race relations at the time this event took place, the assumed wealth of the victim (as he lived in a house and owned a luxury vehicle), and Beazley's race, there is no doubt that discrimination had a role in the decision to execute, particularly when taking into account the disposition of other cases at this time.
Why are you guys excusing murder because he was a teenager? I’m a teenager too but it’s COMMON SENSE not to go up to someone and shoot and kill them. Like? Why excuse that behavior? Do I think he deserved death? Probably not, maybe 20-30 years. But not death. Don’t be stupid and excuse murder though, it’s never ok. Every human knows murder is wrong.
Natalie Salinas ...so a good down home assassination with two shots to the head = just 20 years. Then you are a free man having fully paid society back? Get real. He got what he deserved. He made a choice and paid the price. Now let’s go interview the family of the victims and see how feel. And let’s hear about the victims he shot and what their hopes and dreams were.
Killing someone for something they did as a minor is evil. Their brain is not even capable of making the best decisions. Even an extremely intelligent, responsible, and well meaning teenager will make poor decisions.
hannah Gibbs even teenagers know killing someone is wrong, there's no excuse, I knew by age 5 hurting and taking someone's life was wrong, being a teenager shouldn't excuse that behaviour , because they should know by the time they are a teenager that if you break the law or murder someone then that's wrong and you have to serve time for what you've done
Jennie Wright they deserve a second chance, when you were at the teenager age, everythings seems like not that big of a deal, it might have been an adrenaline rush, it might have been an uncontrollable anger, you do stuff without thinking of the consequences sometimes even if you know it's wrong, a decision that you make in your teenage age should not determine how your life will go, youre simply not mature enough to realize what's the limit and what's the consequences. Prisoners who commited a crime when they were minor should never be given a death penalty, they deserve redemption, 20 years is enought for them to realize that what they did was wrong, and should be allowed to teach others in society especially other teenagers that what they did was wrong and they regret it.
livingking now you're talking about personal revenge, still in most place murder would only fetch you at most 20+ years of jail time, and trust me, im sure ill be satisfied with that, you dont fight fire with fire, im not trying to be all goody preaching peace and love, no, im simply disgusted about how a mistake cannot be made right. Every minor deserves a second chance.
Danii M that's actually not true. Your brain isn't done fully deveolping until your 25. And especially for guys, the prefrontal cortex and amygdala (they control emotion, and decision making) can take longer to develop fully
thats you though he seemed like a loveable person and a confident liked kid but he just made a mistake that was horrific but shouldve just been given a long sentence
Yes sir. That's a plain fact & it's hard to get around it. Although I personally am against the death penalty, I wonder if life without parole might be the more cruel sentence.
How any man could witness so much death, destruction, the effects upon the families etc etc, he must suffer horrendous nightmares and visions. He seems like a good man. I hope God walks with him.
All you have to do is look into his eyes. In the military, it’s known as the thousand yard stare. He does seem like a really good person but has seen things that the vast majority of people would never want to see under any circumstances. I hope he’s at peace now.
I feel the kid deserved a second chance. He seemed genuinely remorseful. There is no way I could have done this guy's job. 219 executions. That's mind blowing.
No one thinks about the other side of the people they killed and those people I'm sure didn't want to die that way and the families that are still upset . If my kid got killed by a jerk like this I would of injected him and pushed the buttons of death 💀 .
I remember following napoleon's case from start to finish. I couldn't understand why he would commit such a brutal act. The kid had everything going for him. But what I admired about him was he owned up to it. He just wanted to live out his life. But in the end he paid the ultimate price for his actions.
Anyone stopped to think how many more people he [ Napolean] might have killed if he had not been caught and convicted ? 97 % of violent crime is committed by someone who has previously committed a violent crime. It is rarely a one time thing. How would you feel about his execution if he had murdered someone in your family ? The victim got no second chance .
Nobody is arguing that Napoleon shouldn't have been persecuted. They are arguing that he shouldn't have been sentenced to death. And I don't care what the family wants... There is a reason why police officers and judges can't work on cases which affect them personally. If somebody of my family is murdered I hope nobody asks me what I want. I would want him dead as well but that's not how the justice system should work. Objective People should make objective judgements, not the families who would make emotional judgements.

Sorry, but some time you just don't get a second chance; Shooting someone in the head (he also shot at the wife and missed) is one of them. Talking about Napoleon.
This is a good man, with an amazing 💓....thank you for your service MR. Fitzgearld for your compassion and service! I can only imagine what you had to go through. Respect Mr. Fitsgearld! You deserve it.
Sharif Owens I agree. He saw the PERSONS and not just their crimes. His job was to deal with them after the conviction and being human he occasionally felt compassion. Only a monster would not. His job was not to make them miserable so he talked with them and got to know them. I’m sure that meant a lot.
basherofnoggins The whole hypocrisy in that argument is people only use it for murder. If someone rapes is it ok to have the punishment for them to be raped? It’s cruel and unusual and I think the death penalty is the same way
With everything we now know about human brain development it is unsettling to say the least, that this 17 year old was executed. A man's prefrontal cortex which is responsible for rational decision making based on long-term consequences isn't fully developed until age 25. Teenage boys use their amygdala more, which is the emotional center of the brain. Yes he should have been incarcerated for what he did. To execute him and deny him an opportunity to psychologically develop and be evaluated as the years went on is irrational and misinformed.
Amazing how liberals use that as an excuse for a murderer, but yet liberals see nothing wrong with letting a child become "transgender" as if the child knows exactly what he/she is doing and the child is championed for it. LMAO the hypocrisy is astounding.
This documentary exposes the truth about the horrific impact of capital-murder, period, from the original incident to the death-chamber. The rarely seen/shown side of it are the "in-betweens" that enter the grieving-process long before the death of the condemned. No one would ever imagine that such a tragedy would include such kind and tenderhearted people as Napoleon's mother and father. Sure seem like noble people to me and. I wish them peace as I do each person impacted by the story. Two family-circles so unbelievably burdened forever.
Hearing his pathetic copout of self awareness oh ive apologised every since. I violated the law. Sounded like bullshit to me, tried to jack a car and shot em in the head in a death penalty state.
@CODE92818 I believe Larry went to Napoleon's family because he was more familiar with the inmates and family instead of the victim's family. If you infact have any bond or emotional connection with anyone and you knew that they were so messed up in the moment that they sealed the fate of an innocent person's life, I think that you would be more in pieces then if it was someone you loved and you knew was innocent to that point. Larry was there for the forever grieving parents of their lost son, it would make sense that the victim's family would get more support considering the victim did nothing wrong. You're child could be a horrible, disgusting, and evil person. But if they ever die and you are a loving, caring parent you will be in pieces just like Napoleon's.
A lot of people commenting from the perspective of dreamers, and absent of rationale. A life or several are taken by these people. Not in self defense, this is murder, killing for baseless causality. They do not deserve a fate based on delusions of grandeur they deserve to have their life extinguished. An absence of life. Of goals, wants, needs fulfillment. They lose that privilege when they commit the crime and are deemed so. Because the person or persons they murdered are no longer going to have those options either, along with the families who suffer. And because of that murderer they make their family suffer in the same light. This is justice and revenge. And both are better than letting someone who killed your loved one walk away with a life to lead of their own.
So just imprison them and stop them from doing it again. With capital punishment you're basically eliminating the chance of Innocents who have been wrongfully convicted to return to normal life because they have already served their unjust sentence. You're basically murdering Innocents who have been wrongfully convicted and denying any chance at exoneration simply to punish those who are doing evil, i.e. murder.
No, it will not be me next because I will not murder anyone. Only murdering someone will put you at risk of execution and only in a few states. People who live in those states are aware of this ultimate sanction. You don’t get a death sentence for just anything, not even raping children who will live their entire lives with pain in their hearts.
@@vondahe LOL. The #1 cause of unnatural death last century was democide, or death by government. 200 million people died outside of any wars, most of whom were innocent. It is government that are the murderers, thieves, and rapists. And you worry about deranged people who kill handfuls, while they kill millions.
+Dreams Come True I know because of my own UK when we had the death penalty many were murdered who were innocent, and since we got rid of the death penalty, many due to new evidence have been found innocent, we can not bring any one back sadly.

The guy who Napoleon shot in the head....TWICE.... at point blank range, all so Napoleon could steal his car. Yeah, that’s the guy. What was the victim’s name? No one knows, because no one mentioned it. They only mention Napoleon and talk about what a nice young man he was. Napoleon got what was coming to him. The State of Texas got their justice. The family of the murder victim got their justice. The police officers investigating that gruesome and heinous murder got their justice. The murder victim got his justice. And you know what? Napoleon also got his justice. I pray for Napoleon’s soul and pray God forgives him. I truly do. But Napoleon got his justice, and his justice was being executed.
@tntkop You display the typical hypocrisy of your kind. You’re a Christian yes? In your own opinion a decent god fearing person who can probably quote bible verses, but yet you are pro murder, it just depends on who’s doing it. You are a fraud.

He was clearly sent to murder those people by powerful people and it was planned by powerful people. They put it in the history books as “this one man”, started the war in order to cover up the atrocities and other bad decisions that white world leaders were making at the time that led to millions of innocent soldiers dying….And mostly poor men who were drafted as soldiers were dying. World leaders and rich affluent families were not sending their boys and men to war. They were sending the poor kids. Simple as that. We were fighting a white rich man’s war and nothing more….bc they were squabbling over land, money, resources, and Power. One boy didn’t start that. World leaders started that and it was years in the making. Don’t put that off on that kid, WWI is not his cross to carry. The blame belongs to many people!
Napeloan was rehabilitatable. But did he *deserve* to be rehabilitated after shooting a guy twice in the head on his own property? No. Capital punishment is not a deterrent, and prison is not a deterrent; people kill and rape regardless of the punishment. Capital punishment is the most extreme force of punishment, whether a murder requires the death penalty to consider the criminal adequately punished is subjective. I personally believe it is in some cases but shouldnt be used without the conviction in doing so.

But i have my own opinions so deal with them, as stated on this thread
Unless you're a person high in power. Which allows you to torture, rape, murder as many people as you like. People in government have committed worse crimes than these people and they continue to live highly privileged lifestyles.
If you killed or gravely hurt someone, I don't want to pay for you to live your life eating and breathing in prison, while your victims suffer or rot. I wish my country had this.
Stopped watching at Napoleon family visit. This wasn’t theft or traffic violation. He shot a person in the head to steal a car. He got EXACTLY what he deserved.
You never see a person that took his own life saying years later that he/she regrets taking his own life. That's how I see these death row inmates. They took their own lives, yet have the luxury of regreting it.
despite the things they do to get the death penalty i always feel sad because no one deserves to be killed at the end of the day . that man looked like he didn't wanna leave

He was on death row for 6years, (the stress + seclusion and lack of sleeps, really disrupt one's body) this man was around 23-24. You can also compare any president 4-8 years before their first terms and last, same stress age you quickly

He was only on death row for six years before his execution?!
He looks just like his father!

The Napoleon audio really hit home. Seemed like he really had learnt his lesson
I’m sure the man he murdered would still be upset even if his murderer “learned his lesson”. It’s not a lesson if 99.9% of people already know it.
Nahr but he shot a dude and robbed his car….
This is coming from a 17 year old:
All of these older people saying "he was only 17, we all make mistakes at that age" and "he was 17, he didn't know what he was doing" really piss me off.
They must not remember being a 17 year old very well, if I went out and killed another human being while carjacking that said person, it doesn't matter if I'm 17, I know damn well what I'm doing and deserve to suffer the consequences.
Don't defend me by saying "he was only 17" there is a damn reason why you're considered a legal adult by the age of 18.
It's because by the time you get to be that age, you usually have a decent understanding of the world you are in.
And a 17 year old is only 12 months away from being 18, so why would 1 year make a difference?
You still, at the age of 17, understand very well what the action of killing another human being entails, you destroy that person's family, you destroy your own family because now you're a murderer, you destroy what that person might have accomplished in their life, and you took away the rest of that persons time left on Earth.
Sure, we make mistakes, but that does not mean we don't understand or think about the consequences of doing something before we do it, especially something as serious as taking another human beings life, it just means that we have a tendency to misjudge an action or make the wrong decision based on lack of experience, not that we don't damn well know that that said action is wrong.
Do not defend a 17 year old solely because they are 17 years old, you either don't remember being 17, or are dishonest with yourself and others.
Docter Yoda
You're pretty smart for a kid. And, YOU ARE still a kid at 17. You're right, tho. I did some shit, when I was young, but to shoot and kill for robbery purposes, no way. That takes some cold-bloodedness, man. Now, having said that, I'm only for the death penalty for the "worse of the worst" cases. The guys (and women), who have done inhuman things. The people we won't let our kids be kids, for. When I was a little kid in the 60's, we'd be, like, 6 years old, riding our bikes by ourselves. Then, the serial killers came out and now......
But, personally, Napoleon Beazley shoulda got life. He killed the wrong dude, well, he shouldn't have killed ANYBODY, but his victim was a judge's father. That's why he didn't get life, with no parole.
@@WeThePeeps13 I agree that I am still a kid, and I will probably continue to be one until my early to mid twenties like most people.
But still, somebody as young as 10 is absolutely capable of commiting an evil and horrendous act as is seen in the case of Jon Venables and Robert Thompson who kidnapped and tortured a two year old child to death in 1993.
And I agree with you in the fact that the death penalty should only be reserved for the worst of the worst, but I believe it should only be an option when there is undeniable evidence that they did it, so that there is no chance of a falsely convicted person being executed.
And yes, I hate that a child can't go outside their house nowadays without their parents watching them like a hawk.
Back in the early 2000's my family had a house in what was (and is) a pretty good neighborhood, but for some reason I was never allowed to go to the park down the street very often.
I later found out that the reason why was because the guy who lived on the street corner was a registered sex offender, and because of that I (understandably) wasn't able to go outside without my parents having to watch me and my siblings like a hawk.
It's people like that who ruin it for everybody else.
But yeah, people who just commit murder like Napoleon Beazley, and not anything overly cruel or heinous, like torture or serial killing, should just get life in prison.
It's just that the sole defense for what he did is that he was 17 when he did it, and that pisses me off.
Are you 18 now?
@@WeThePeeps13 What purpose does a life logn sentence serve?
I can't be bothered to read your rant justifying the murder of a juvenile by the state of Tex-ass . The youngest killed by Texas was 14 - that would have really got your juices flowing. You could use up a whole box of kleenex getting yourself off on the killing of a boy in the electric chair.
I can try and feel for these inmates. However the victims didn't deserve to be executed in the way they did.
dshibbs1027 imagine being Larry his job was to get to know people who are about to die would be rough no matter what they did
I really dislike the death penalty, not because the state kills monster but because they could very well kill an innocent man. I believe like 2% of people on death row are innocent in some estimations. Better life with out the possibility of parole IMO.
@jord heinz I'm not saying these are good people. If the justice system can prove these are the true killers 100% of the time, sure kill them all, I won't loose sleep over these monsters deaths. But the problem is they don't do that, sometimes the jury or prosecuter messes up and a innocent man is put on the chopping block and then what? Is the life of an innocent man worth the death of these monsters? I say no, life without the possibility of parole is the way to go I think, that way new evidence can later be brought forward and these innocent people can be exonerated.
And don't think these monster are living in good conditions dude. Prison in the US isn't meant to be pleasant. These people will rot in a cell for the rest of their lives.
@@jetquiroz more like 60% is innocent

@@ferce889 frankly, it is very disrespectful and inconsiderate that you would equate the death penalty to a grudge. Can't you use the same logic for the entire justice system? Is giving a bank robber prison time holding a grudge? Is taking the driver's license from a DUI holding a grudge?
NO! People make choices and they suffer the consequences.
Live and let live,kill and get killed ....I say it's only fair.
@@YHWHsam The cause and effect philosophy that is so common to the death penalty fails to recognize that people are not robots, which is obvious from this video. You bear responsibility for your choices but these choices are make based on the sum of life up to then. That sum starts in childhood, which is when you develop most of what makes you "you" but have little say in where, with who, or how it is done. The death penalty is sanctioned revenge killing. If it is so necessary then it should be preformed eye to eye between the convicted and whoever is asking for it, not sitting in a chair behind glass while the government flips a switch.
“cant blame my mum for me being here on death row” and the fact the guy was so truthful in the way he admits u grow relationships with the prisoners
I don't have a strong stance for or against the penalty. I just don't understand how someone who rapes, tortures and kills children should get the same punishment as someone who kills in the heat of passion, for example. Some crimes are so heinous, death is the only fitting punishment IN MY OPINION.
The problem is that it does not seem to do anything, I mean it does not deter crime, cost twice as much as life's imprisonment, so what's the positive? some kind of revenge? what does that get you in the long term?

Well done for stating the obvious. You and Texas are a special kind of cruel if you think killing children is morally justified. The youngest murdered by the state was 14 and later found to be innocent - you never mention those children in your warped rants.
Nothing about the poor innocent man that was murdered. What about his family? Him or his family won't get a second chance. Do this type of crime, you have to be prepared to pay for it. May God have mercy on both their souls.

@@adithyabhat4770 I'm not here to say whether it's right or wrong that he got the death penalty, nor make comparisons to cherry picked court cases and make this about skin color. I'm just saying that you can't play something as serious as that off as being a 'mistake'. Forgetting to put the milk back in the fridge is a mistake. Breaking into someones house, shooting them in the head and stealing their car is being a murderous criminal.
But it's not something that merits the death penalty, is his point. If the victim was shot twice in the head, then death was at least swift and there should have been minimal suffering compared to other ways to die. And if the motivation for the crime was theft and not the glee of inflicting violence purely for the sake of violence, then it's not even on the same level of viciousness as, say, a serial killer who makes specific advance plans to extinguish life for pleasure. It was a horrible crime and it was a wrong decision that deserved punishment, but many people have been murdered in thefts gone sideways-- We don't put them to death, and the idea of condemning a minor to death is outrageous. One of the points of prison besides punishment is supposed to be remediation, and if a minor who doesn't even have a brain that's fully developed physically, intellectually, and emotionally, isn't the best candidate for reconditioning into a correctly functioning member of society, then I don't know who is. This was a terrible thing all around.
@@adithyabhat4770I'm glad to see you noticed that correlation also. Race relations in the US are still in the toilet in many places, despite this being the "post" age. I witness it with alarming regularity. And based on race relations at the time this event took place, the assumed wealth of the victim (as he lived in a house and owned a luxury vehicle), and Beazley's race, there is no doubt that discrimination had a role in the decision to execute, particularly when taking into account the disposition of other cases at this time.
Why are you guys excusing murder because he was a teenager? I’m a teenager too but it’s COMMON SENSE not to go up to someone and shoot and kill them. Like? Why excuse that behavior?
Do I think he deserved death? Probably not, maybe 20-30 years. But not death. Don’t be stupid and excuse murder though, it’s never ok. Every human knows murder is wrong.
Natalie Salinas ...so a good down home assassination with two shots to the head = just 20 years. Then you are a free man having fully paid society back? Get real. He got what he deserved. He made a choice and paid the price. Now let’s go interview the family of the victims and see how feel. And let’s hear about the victims he shot and what their hopes and dreams were.
Killing someone for something they did as a minor is evil. Their brain is not even capable of making the best decisions.
Even an extremely intelligent, responsible, and well meaning teenager will make poor decisions.
hannah Gibbs even teenagers know killing someone is wrong, there's no excuse, I knew by age 5 hurting and taking someone's life was wrong, being a teenager shouldn't excuse that behaviour
, because they should know by the time they are a teenager that if you break the law or murder someone then that's wrong and you have to serve time for what you've done
Jennie Wright they deserve a second chance, when you were at the teenager age, everythings seems like not that big of a deal, it might have been an adrenaline rush, it might have been an uncontrollable anger, you do stuff without thinking of the consequences sometimes even if you know it's wrong, a decision that you make in your teenage age should not determine how your life will go, youre simply not mature enough to realize what's the limit and what's the consequences. Prisoners who commited a crime when they were minor should never be given a death penalty, they deserve redemption, 20 years is enought for them to realize that what they did was wrong, and should be allowed to teach others in society especially other teenagers that what they did was wrong and they regret it.
livingking now you're talking about personal revenge, still in most place murder would only fetch you at most 20+ years of jail time, and trust me, im sure ill be satisfied with that, you dont fight fire with fire, im not trying to be all goody preaching peace and love, no, im simply disgusted about how a mistake cannot be made right. Every minor deserves a second chance.
Hannah G he was 17 a year off from being a adult .He wasn’t a child.At 17 I knew what decisions I was making .its got nothing to do with his brain
Danii M that's actually not true. Your brain isn't done fully deveolping until your 25. And especially for guys, the prefrontal cortex and amygdala (they control emotion, and decision making) can take longer to develop fully

The problem with giving these people a “second chance” is that they’ve already taken away someone’s only chance.
Yes sir. That's a plain fact & it's hard to get around it.
Although I personally am against the death penalty, I wonder if life without parole might be the more cruel sentence.
How any man could witness so much death, destruction, the effects upon the families etc etc, he must suffer horrendous nightmares and visions.
He seems like a good man.
I hope God walks with him.
All you have to do is look into his eyes. In the military, it’s known as the thousand yard stare. He does seem like a really good person but has seen things that the vast majority of people would never want to see under any circumstances. I hope he’s at peace now.
I feel the kid deserved a second chance. He seemed genuinely remorseful. There is no way I could have done this guy's job. 219 executions. That's mind blowing.
No one thinks about the other side of the people they killed and those people I'm sure didn't want to die that way and the families that are still upset . If my kid got killed by a jerk like this I would of injected him and pushed the buttons of death 💀 .

How was napoleon executed but there is mass murders serving only life sentences in prison.
The justice system is confusing.
I think they can get deals, like they say where they buried the bodies and get life instead.
plea deals...
I remember following napoleon's case from start to finish. I couldn't understand why he would commit such a brutal act. The kid had everything going for him. But what I admired about him was he owned up to it. He just wanted to live out his life. But in the end he paid the ultimate price for his actions.
He shouldn’t have killed for the crime he committed
i wonder if he had any frontal lobe brain injury..
Anyone stopped to think how many more people he [ Napolean] might have killed if he had not been caught and convicted ? 97 % of violent crime is committed by someone who has previously committed a violent crime. It is rarely a one time thing. How would you feel about his execution if he had murdered someone in your family ? The victim got no second chance .
Nobody is arguing that Napoleon shouldn't have been persecuted. They are arguing that he shouldn't have been sentenced to death. And I don't care what the family wants... There is a reason why police officers and judges can't work on cases which affect them personally. If somebody of my family is murdered I hope nobody asks me what I want. I would want him dead as well but that's not how the justice system should work. Objective People should make objective judgements, not the families who would make emotional judgements.

That's what separates us from murders, even when we know the guy is a killer, we still have the humanity to form a bond with them.
With everything we now know about human brain development it is unsettling to say the least, that this 17 year old was executed. A man's prefrontal cortex which is responsible for rational decision making based on long-term consequences isn't fully developed until age 25. Teenage boys use their amygdala more, which is the emotional center of the brain. Yes he should have been incarcerated for what he did. To execute him and deny him an opportunity to psychologically develop and be evaluated as the years went on is irrational and misinformed.
That's the land of the free for ya. " America "
he was acting in typical thug manner. He paid the price.
What we know now is a lot more than we used to about brain. Regardless, he took a life on purpose and regretted it because he was caught.
Young and Dumb isn't an excuse.
Amazing how liberals use that as an excuse for a murderer, but yet liberals see nothing wrong with letting a child become "transgender" as if the child knows exactly what he/she is doing and the child is championed for it. LMAO the hypocrisy is astounding.

This documentary exposes the truth about the horrific impact of capital-murder, period, from the original incident to the death-chamber. The rarely seen/shown side of it are the "in-betweens" that enter the grieving-process long before the death of the condemned. No one would ever imagine that such a tragedy would include such kind and tenderhearted people as Napoleon's mother and father. Sure seem like noble people to me and. I wish them peace as I do each person impacted by the story. Two family-circles so unbelievably burdened forever.

What about asking the victims families and not the relatives of the murderer.
You're as deep as a dried-up puddle and half as clever.
@CODE92818 I believe Larry went to Napoleon's family because he was more familiar with the inmates and family instead of the victim's family. If you infact have any bond or emotional connection with anyone and you knew that they were so messed up in the moment that they sealed the fate of an innocent person's life, I think that you would be more in pieces then if it was someone you loved and you knew was innocent to that point. Larry was there for the forever grieving parents of their lost son, it would make sense that the victim's family would get more support considering the victim did nothing wrong.
You're child could be a horrible, disgusting, and evil person. But if they ever die and you are a loving, caring parent you will be in pieces just like Napoleon's.
Omg shut up
If I killed someone in cold blood, I'd feel so guilty I couldn't live with myself.
A lot of people commenting from the perspective of dreamers, and absent of rationale. A life or several are taken by these people. Not in self defense, this is murder, killing for baseless causality. They do not deserve a fate based on delusions of grandeur they deserve to have their life extinguished. An absence of life. Of goals, wants, needs fulfillment. They lose that privilege when they commit the crime and are deemed so. Because the person or persons they murdered are no longer going to have those options either, along with the families who suffer. And because of that murderer they make their family suffer in the same light. This is justice and revenge. And both are better than letting someone who killed your loved one walk away with a life to lead of their own.
like his father said, his age should've been a factor
heartbroken for both napoleon's family and the victim's family
justice belongs to God
Does NOT matter how innocent they seem... they have all taken the lives of someone who was loved.
So just imprison them and stop them from doing it again. With capital punishment you're basically eliminating the chance of Innocents who have been wrongfully convicted to return to normal life because they have already served their unjust sentence.
You're basically murdering Innocents who have been wrongfully convicted and denying any chance at exoneration simply to punish those who are doing evil, i.e. murder.
Shut up I hate when y’all do this

The government should never be given the power of life and death. It will be you next.

No one knows, because no one mentioned it. They only mention Napoleon and talk about what a nice young man he was.
Napoleon got what was coming to him.
The State of Texas got their justice.
The family of the murder victim got their justice.
The police officers investigating that gruesome and heinous murder got their justice.
The murder victim got his justice.
And you know what? Napoleon also got his justice.
I pray for Napoleon’s soul and pray God forgives him. I truly do.
But Napoleon got his justice, and his justice was being executed.
@tntkop You display the typical hypocrisy of your kind.
You’re a Christian yes? In your own opinion a decent god fearing person who can probably quote bible verses, but yet you are pro murder, it just depends on who’s doing it. You are a fraud.
@@36minutesago7 I'm not religious, but I do agree with the OP. If you take someones life, yours should be taken.
@John Henderson Good for you. Personally I’d feel very uncomfortable living under a system that can legally put me to death but each to their own, I guess some people just like to be dominated.
@@36minutesago7 I never said the government should do it. Lmao get your head out of your ass.
So far, still for it. Going to watch part 3 now.
This should teach you to NOT commit crimes in the state of Texas
Don’t see how this man sleeps seeing so many people die. Brave man.
they give voice to the families of killers, but not the victim families
Liberal narrative
Because this is about executions - why do so many dumb and morally corrupt people - such as yourself - clutter up the comments board. Also, when are you and America going to join the civilized world? Texas, much to your disappointment has been stopped from murdering children in 2002. The youngest killed in the chair was 14 and black. That would have really turned you on.
Tough, tough, tough. My heart goes out to all who have lost loved ones guilty or not. Victim or predator. How do you know if a person has reformed or not. The fact is that when you commit a crime of this magnitude, it's too late.
how come no one is mentioning the man that was shot twice in the head, or the ordeal his parents, his siblings, his wife, his children, his friends must endure for the rest of their living life?????..... you go visit the killers parents? really? wtf is that?
you can see how much Napoleon has aged from the stress of living in death row .it has taken a toll on him .I do feel mercy should be given for people like Napoleon who are truly repentant ,and also very young as well ...No one should be executed at only 24 .
The mother says that the state decided napoleon's fate napoleon decided his own fate
No, Texas murdered a child for killing someone while they were a child. Although wrong killing children is wrong too. Texas is a special kind of evil.
@@davidc3839 lol people know that killing someone is fundamentally wrong;
Its prewritten into our DNA in our consciousness;
Everyone is aware that the death penalty is the punishment for taking another's life;
America is a nation of laws;
If justice isn't served what kind of nation would this be,
It would be lawlessness also he wasn't a kid when he was executed he was 25;
Although I do believe that being in prison for life with no possibility of parole is far worse of a punishment napoleon was nearly 18 when he committed the murder; he also attempted to murder the mans wife also
Ryan A if he was white you wouldn’t say that
@@xavierrainey8747 lol I don't play the race card I'm not mentally weak like the rest of these people or you skin pigmentation means nothing to me,
GOD says that we are all one blood find someone else to falsely accuse
Acts 17:26(KJV)
26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
The guy who started World War I, which in turn lead to World War 2, was 19 when he murdered that Duke and his wife, leaving their children orphans. Due to his age, they decided not to execute him. The irony is stuning. Hundreds of thousands of young men his age and under died because of what he did.
One, insignificant low level 19 year old boy can’t start an entire World war. The death of two people can’t start an entire war. There were other things going on, other political issues were happening, other high level powerful men squabbling that led to these wars. Anyone believing that one kid and one assassination could start WWI IS DUMB ASF. That doesn’t even make since. He was clearly sent to murder those people by powerful people and it was planned by powerful people. They put it in the history books as “this one man”, started the war in order to cover up the atrocities and other bad decisions that white world leaders were making at the time that led to millions of innocent soldiers dying….And mostly poor men who were drafted as soldiers were dying. World leaders and rich affluent families were not sending their boys and men to war. They were sending the poor kids. Simple as that. We were fighting a white rich man’s war and nothing more….bc they were squabbling over land, money, resources, and Power. One boy didn’t start that. World leaders started that and it was years in the making. Don’t put that off on that kid, WWI is not his cross to carry. The blame belongs to many people!
Napeloan was rehabilitatable. But did he *deserve* to be rehabilitated after shooting a guy twice in the head on his own property? No. Capital punishment is not a deterrent, and prison is not a deterrent; people kill and rape regardless of the punishment. Capital punishment is the most extreme force of punishment, whether a murder requires the death penalty to consider the criminal adequately punished is subjective. I personally believe it is in some cases but shouldnt be used without the conviction in doing so.
The problem with capital punishment is the risk of executing someone falsely convicted, which does happen, perhaps more often than we even know.
Nice and unbiased in both editing and questions :D:D
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Jason Voorheese how is he disgusting? That saying sums up perfectly some situations in this video
Jason Voorheese why is he disgusting? no really, think about it. maybe its you that cannot handle anyone who doesn't view the world exactly as you do. take a good look at yourself in the mirror today.
i disagree that this saying perfectly sums up this video lol. Considering this video is mostly about the people who should have probably gotten a second chance, its pretty UNempathetic to say what John said, Maybe everyone else trying to shit on Jason should 'take a good look at themselves' because being unempathetic is a pretty disgusting trait to display for all to see. But i have my own opinions so deal with them, as stated on this thread
Unless you're a person high in power. Which allows you to torture, rape, murder as many people as you like. People in government have committed worse crimes than these people and they continue to live highly privileged lifestyles.
If you killed or gravely hurt someone, I don't want to pay for you to live your life eating and breathing in prison, while your victims suffer or rot. I wish my country had this.
People release their bowels when they die.
Bob I hate it when there is no tp.
Not in an execution. They have pessaries inserted
Don't they put diapers on em at least with old sparky they do
@Bob NO SHIT SHERLOCK
@@jeanrozek5680 OH YOU KNOW About ole sparky
Stopped watching at Napoleon family visit. This wasn’t theft or traffic violation. He shot a person in the head to steal a car. He got EXACTLY what he deserved.
Reality Champion no shut up what do you know
Nijy Islam a) learn English b) he’s dead 💀
No man has the right to take another mans life unless of course they try to kill u or a loved one.But this ain’t right in the lords eyes
And the bible says a eye for a eye
I was expecting for this man to give us a little SMILE
Napoleon Beazley seemed to have regretted his action deeply. I wish he had gotten a second chance.
He shot a man in the head twice to steal his car. Good riddance. I'll bet he's not a repeat offender.
Executing a killer doesn't bring the victims back, all it does is create ANOTHER corpse.
Well, if ur actions suggests you feel someone else is not entitled to their lives, then you are not entitled to yours!
World is overpopulated. Better to just get rid of the ones who deserve to be gotten rid of.
You never see a person that took his own life saying years later that he/she regrets taking his own life. That's how I see these death row inmates. They took their own lives, yet have the luxury of regreting it.
Rehabilitatable? Once you've proven that you can do the ultimate bad, you can always do it again no matter what.
Somehow, I miss John Luttig a lot more that Beazly. I'd love to have heard from their family and their pain and suffering.
we are all on death row … the only regret is not reaching our full potential while we live …
And he look 219 years old, I can tell his position took a toll on him.
Sorry but I can't feel sorry for someone who took someone's life.
That's because you lack morals and an imagination.
Can’t believe this documentary it’s free is so interesting to me I appreciate it 👏
The 17 yr old should not get the death penalty. We all make wrong decision. God makes the judgement
yea but we all dont take the life of another man to steal his car. eff off he died and deserved every single bit of it
despite the things they do to get the death penalty i always feel sad because no one deserves to be killed at the end of the day . that man looked like he didn't wanna leave
