After moving to Washington DC seventeen days after September 11th, 2001, I figured I had witnessed a city which had faced the pinnacle of fear and uncertainty. Not quite. I sat by and watched two more unnerving events unfold, the anthrax letter scares and the DC sniper.
A little over a year after 9-11 John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo held a city hostage for almost three weeks brutally murdering ten people and injuring four more. Local law enforcement seemed helpless and citizens were constantly looking over their shoulders, wondering if they were the next target.
Eventually both men were caught, tried, and convicted with Lee Boyd Malvo serving a life sentence with no possibility of parole and Muhammad facing execution.
Well part of that story has finally come to an end. Last night, John Allen Muhammed was executed by lethal injection for his crimes.
ABC News-Just after 9 p.m. this evening — seven years and 12 days after he was captured and later charged with orchestrating a cold-blooded shooting spree, that killed 10 people in 2002 and terrorized the Washington, D.C., area for weeks, John Allen Muhammad, the convicted so-called D.C. sniper, was put to death by the state of Virginia.
He was killed by lethal injection, at Greensville Correctional Center, about an hour south of Richmond after Virginia Governor Tim Kaine, as expected, declined to grant a request to commute the sentence to life in prison.
He was pronounced dead at 9:11 p.m., prison spokesman Larry Traylor told reporters. He said he didn’t hear Muhammad utter a word the entire time. When asked if he had any last words, Traylor said Muhammad, “did not even look at us or acknowledge us.”

The sick bastard should have had honey poured into his asshole and then made to sit on a red ant hill. That would have taught the black fucker a thing or two. The black dog had an easy death. He should have had his testicles dipped in hot oil and made to masturbate non stop for 24 hours. Each time he stopped, his dick should have been rubbed with chillie powder. That would be the best lesson for him.

George- with what you have suggested, John Allen must be happy he got the lethal injection.
I agree – he got it too easy. he needed to suffer like the rest. i could not agree more. I am glad the put the fucker where he belonged.

John Allen deserved to be tortured for years. The authorities should have played a waiting game with him- take him to the death chamber and then say-oh its actually tomorrow that you are going to die. Do this for a year until he is emotionally and mentally shattered.
Another way is to shove a hot iron ron up his anus and get him anally raped by a pig. That would be fun. But that bastard is dead. Now he can rot in hell.
