Death Penalty Work-Around
Federal prosecutors may pursue the death penalty for a man accused of killing an Uber driver during a weeks-long violent crime spree that also included an armed carjacking outside the Willis Tower.
Edmond Harris, 22, has been in federal custody for four years since being charged with the March 23, 2021, murder of Javier Ramos during a carjacking in Lawndale.
Last week, U.S. District Judge Mary Rowland extended deadlines in the case after learning that the Department of Justice is reconsidering its previous decision not to seek the death penalty for Harris, according to court records.
If Porkulous and state dems won't reinstate the Death Penalty at the state level, we fully support Federal executions of murderers.

I’d be happy if people were just held in custody and forced to do their time. This state is a criminal’s wet dream.
Death is appropriate!
4 years in jail waiting for trial... so much for a speedy trial and the presumption of innocence.
Taxes, Climate and Crime is what are forcing people to leave Illinois. Yes Death Penalty should be brought back
Fry 'em up.
Most of these reported crimes would not have happened if that had been the case
Earning time served with ankle bracelets another pass from the demorats and their ilk
This scum should be "Made Good" on the street!
Start charging these idiots with treason and have pay per view executions every Saturday night
Yeah do dumb shit and you can hang out and talk about how guvmint slo af dumbitch
We can thank Ryan for Illinois not having the death penalty
Amend the law - repeal ankle bracelets and switch to shock collars.
I agree. BTW, I think the article meant Sears Tower. Even decades later, and after Sears is no more. Though "the former Sears Tower" will do.
The majority of continuances in court rooms is from the defense attorneys. Waiting out victims, witnesses and police/Detectives to stop coming to court because they hate being inconvenienced time and time again. Or they haven’t been paid yet.
