January 7th - 3 Executions in the US
I do not know the Bordelon fella but the whole family in the USA came from two brothers. I will have to pray extra hard for him because I am related to him somehow, there is no doubt about that. I will also ask my dad to pray for him while I am praying for my dad.

It seems a little cynical but it seems a spate of executions were scheduled immediately after the Christmas season and Epiphany... i'm not sure if out of respect for the Holy Days or to preclude a political reaction to the death penalty in the peace of period.
