Skitzo Convict Seyz Missouri Execution Is Part Of Satan's Scheme

Forgive us for not showing much reverence for this story given that that the dude on death row was convicted of horrific atrocity that merits the strictest sanction from the state.

Here's part of the story . . .

He is scheduled to die by lethal injection on Aug. 1 at Eastern Reception, Diagnostic and Correctional Center in Bonne Terre, Missouri.

Attorneys for Johnson said in court filings that he is delusional and thinks Satan is “using the State of Missouri to execute him in order to bring about the end of the world and that the voice of Satan confirmed this plan to him.” They argued that going forward with the execution would violate the Eighth Amendment.

During a psychiatric evaluation, Johnson, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia at age 16, also said he believes he is a vampire who can reanimate his organs and can learn a code to enter an animal’s mind to live after the execution.

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey’s office has argued that Johnson’s recent records indicate he has been free of auditory hallucinations.

In an order Monday, U.S. District Judge Matthew T. Schelp wrote, “The mere fact that someone experiences delusions does not mean that the person experiences the type of delusions that prevent him from rationally understanding why the state seeks to execute him.”
