Far Left CA Gov. Gavin Newsom Signs Executive Order to Halt Death Penalty – Spares Lives of Child Murderers and Serial Killers

Governor Newsom cares more about child murderers, rapists and serial killers than he does innocent unborn babies.

Newly-elected far left CA Governor Gavin Newsom signed an executive order on Wednesday that will place a moratorium on the death penalty in the state of California. 

Newsom poured out his dark liberal heart at a press conference on Wednesday, expressing that he just couldn’t sleep at night if the 737 convicted child murderers, serial killers and rapists who are currently on death row in his state face the ultimate judgment, capital punishment.

“It’s a very emotional place that I stand in,” Newsom said Wednesday, claiming that the death penalty was once “an abstract question” for him, but now he is “the backstop” for any execution that takes place in California.

“And so I am expressing this is not from a paradigm of politics. It’s not a situational conversation for me. This is about who I am as a human being. … To me this is the right thing to do.”

Newsom cited a National Academy of Sciences report that estimates 1 out of every 25 people on death row is innocent as he argued his decision.

“If that’s the case, that means if we move forward executing 737 people in California, we will have executed roughly 30 people that are innocent,” Newsom said. “I don’t know about you. I can’t sign my name to that. I can’t be party to that. I won’t be able to sleep at night.”

Where is Newsom’s emotional plea for the unborn babies who are aborted (murdered) daily??

Gavin Newsom, like every other Communist in power, abused his authority and went around the will of the people in California who in 2016 struck down a measure to repeal the death penalty.

Here are a few murderers, child killers and rapists that will benefit from Newsom’s executive order (via Fox News):

Because of Gavin Newsom’s decision to impose a moratorium on the death penalty, monster and murderer, Scott Peterson (pictured below), who was convicted of killing his beautiful pregnant wife Laci Peterson and their unborn son Conor back in 2002 will get to live a little longer without worrying about being executed.

Lawrence Bittaker (pictured below), named the “Tool Box Killer” was convicted of raping and killing five teen girls in 1979 after he tortured them with pliers and screwdrivers.

SOCCORO CARO AND SUSAN EUBANKS (pictured below) are two of the 22 women currently on death row for murdering their own children.

Caro (left) shot and killed 3 of 4 of her sons in 1999 then tried to kill herself by shooting herself in the head. Eubanks (right) shot and killed all four of her children, ages 4,6,7 and 14 before trying to kill herself.

Kevin Cooper (pictured below) was convicted in 1983 for murdering 4 people, including two children. Cooper murdered the family with many different weapons, including a knife, hatchet and ice pick.

Marcus Wesson (pictured below), the former leader of a cult, was convicted for killing nine of his children in 2004 — which he fathered with his wife, nieces and daughters. Wesson is a sick monster who sexually abused children, including his own daughters, yet Gavin Newsom just can’t sleep at night knowing this child murderer is facing execution.

“This executive order is an affront to our system of justice,” Republican State Senator Jim Nielsen said. “California voters have spoken loudly and clearly, as recently as 2016, that the death penalty serves as a legal and appropriate punishment for those who commit vicious, evil crimes.”

President Trump unleashed on Gavin Newsom for defying the voters of California with his executive order which gives reprieve to serial killers and child murderers on death row.

“Defying voters, the Governor of California will halt all death penalty executions of 737 stone cold killers. Friends and families of the always forgotten VICTIMS are not thrilled, and neither am I!” Trump said in a tweet on Wednesday.
