And THIS is why things would be so much better if I were in charge... THREE TIMES this piece of trash has committed a capital crime (the first time, his victim was lucky enough to survive, so it was only 'attempted' murder).
Can we just throw away the key now? I think he's proved he cannot/will not be rehabilitated, and that he's a danger to society.

SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) - Police have charged a convicted murderer who was released from prison last year with the slaying of a South Florida woman whose body was found in a canal after being missing for three weeks.
Eric Pierson, 54, was charged Saturday with first-degree murder for the slaying of Erika Verdecia, 33, hours after her body was found Saturday near Fort Lauderdale. Sunrise police say Pierson confessed to stabbing the single mother four times with a screwdriver on Sept. 25.
Pierson had been released from prison in September 2020 after serving 27 years of a 40-year sentence for the 1993 beating and strangulation murder of 17-year-old Kristina Whitaker, whose death helped galvanize a push for longer prison sentences. He had pleaded guilty to second-degree murder.
