Amaris Encinas, you're another ignorant "journalist" who should NOT be writing for AOL news or any other place, for that matter. The problem with your writing about the Derrick Dearman murders is this: It is ignorant of you to write: ".....he dropped his appeals and ASKING to have his death sentence carried out". You easily could've changed ONE word: "asking", and, instead, wrote: "ASKED" to have his death sentence carried out". Please, go do something else besides PRETENDING to be a competent, qualified "journalist". You're simply ignorant and a stupid, pathetic excuse for a "writer". Duh!!!!
