Lee has been on death row for 20 years, and now an activist judge has again shielded him from justice and the sentence handed down by a jury of his peers. These endless delays make a mockery of our justice system and treat the victims of violent crime with stunning disregard." | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-06-27T23:43:09Z |
