A Virginia grandmother has been put to death for plotting the murders of her husband and stepson - the first woman to be executed in the US for five years.

im pro death penalty myself yet the two killers who did the murdering will not be executed.
they recieved life imprisonment yet teresa lewis paid the ultimate price for her greed.
me thinks this is justice the wrong way round shouldnt the killers have got the needle and teresa lewis 10 to 15 years for plotting it ?
the american justices got this very wrong

'Very wrong' is a bit dramatic.
She needed putting down. The fact that the other two did not get put down does not negate the fact that she needed putting down.
american justice was at worst - incomplete.
Oh ...and welcome back!

I agree, the two killers should have had lethal injections.
The grandmother plotted the scheme...she should have had life imprisonment.
it just makes sense.

Question, would the killers have killed if the woman had not instigated it?
If not then why should she get a lesser penalty?

My thoughts exactly Bryn she was to much of a coward to pull the trigger herself doesn't make her any less guilty. I think they all should have been put down.

very good point BM & alloha possibly not but thats something we will never find out .
personal greed was the motivation for this crime but was the justice excessive as she didnt actually do the deed? but there again she is as guilty as the killers for instigating the crime.
so it cuts both ways although the actual killers got the lesser sentence in the end i suppose they should have done all three equally and executed them all then thats 3 lives for two its a many sided no win debate.
p.s its good to be back but i must behave myself :sneaky:

Without a link grumps, it could be assumed that she was abused and wanted them dead.
In actual fact she recruited the 2 killers and bought them each a gun to kill her husband and stepson so she could inherit the insurance money. She may have sung hymns in church but she was also a sex addict, recruiting the killers (one of whom has already died in prison) with sex and promises of a payout from the insurance money. She plotted and planned the murders. She is a cold-hearted killer, irregardless of whether she pulled the trigger.

I can't help but wonder how a woman with an IQ of around 72 managed to do all this.
Mastermind a plot to buy insurance and then hire two unsuspecting dupes to off her loving husband, and adorable step-son.
I'm not saying she was innocent, but somethings a bit funny, here.
Not that it matters, now, though I hesitate in the rush to judgment.
