A jury in Oklahoma decided Thursday to give the death penalty to a man who was convicted for the beheading of a co-worker in the nightmare 2014 incident.
Alton Nolen, 33, was convicted in late September for murdering Colleen Hufford, 54, and also attempting to slaughter another co-worker during a heated dispute that took place inside the Moore food processing plant, Vaughan Foods.
Jurors agreed on Oct. 2 that Nolen should serve three life sentences plus 130 years in prison on assault and battery charges stemming from his attack on the co-worker who survived.
Jurors took less than three hours Thursday to recommend the death penalty on the first-degree murder charge.

Let the families chop his head off.
Some may consider the death penalty excessive but I disagree. An example needs to be set. 100% guilty for specific crimes should bring the death penalty. To many politicians stand by criminals in our society. It seems every day we see another example of the laws protecting the criminals. Hopefully this nonsense comes to an end under the new administration.
This should be done in the public!
