pbjbeach:

While you continue to rant on about Bush, keep in mind that had these criminals committed their crimes in the state of Texas, more than likely, they would have received the death penalty and executed long ago. Surely knowing this will help erase some of the hate you have for Bush. Just give it some thought.....

Quite frankly if they are holding them just to grandstand and know that good behavior credits are not the issue than these inmates are being unlawfully incarcarated which is likely going to end up costing the taxpayers money in possible civil suits. Honestly, the federal government needs to step in because their federal civil rights are actually being violated by the state of North Carolina. And let me say that yes I do realize these men have done terrible crimes and I am an ardent supporter of being tough on crime probably more so than most. But the law is the law and North Carolina needs to be held accountable for possible false inprisonment.

pbjbeach: As usual, your comment makes absolutely no sense. George Bush has absolutely nothing to do with this story.

It is all about spending more money, what is it going to cost us now?? They are going to get out and then turn around and sue the state for millions due to not releasing them on the dates they should have. A court will uphold their claim that the state held them under unlawful reasons. And you and I will pay even more taxes for the lawsuites they will win. Let them out, give them big money now,it will be cheaper in the long run.

If you ask me every since the bush adminstration has been in charge of this country there are no longer any constitutionaly right to be provide to an indivsual citizens as that they have allowed for the states rights to take precedence over the indivsuals rights an this is proabbly why that state employees also no longer have any work place rights within the woprkplace because everything has gone over to state rights. an state right are being abused in order to suppress an indivsuals rights in the work place or any where else

NOOOO!! No need to waste our tax $$ for this. As musch as I beleive these people need to spend their life behind bars, there is a loophole that is going to set them free. I hate it, but as they say, the law is the law, and the courts have ordered them released.

Doesn't Bev have a convicted murderer working on her staff? Maybe she could hire them all to work for her once they get out.

The legislative session would just be a waste of time because ex post facto is Constitutionally illegal in this country. As much as I am not happy about these inmates being released, the defense attorney is right and the law is on the inmates side. It would not surprise me if it took a federal judge to override the governor and order the prisoners released.

Hey GOV..Here is a great idea..You don't like the ruling..Appeal the case to the Fed's or LET THE PRISONERS GO as the NC Supreme COURT ORDERED..YOU Governor can't abuse what the courts have said..Why don't you just start disobeying the Constitution altogether..It seems that where you are headed...remindes me of a spolied child who does not like the game so you take all the marbles and go home..

I think that if the governor of this state is truely the leader of this then she if she wants these prisoners do to be realeased then she has the authority to issue an exective order to allowed them to continue to be held in prison. I fail tosee the reasoning behind the governor having to call a special sesion of the legisture back into session an to have to foot the bill for this expentiture of taxpayers funding to bring the legisture back into special sesion to handle this one issue. Let the governor rule the state by exective order just as Bush has ruled the entire country by exective order an be da-- the general public an what they say or think this is the country of the politician for the politicians an by the politicians thank you
