BALTIMORE (WJZ) — One of the most controversial decisions in Maryland history is being revisited, as a group of state lawmakers want to reinstate the death penalty to apply to people convicted of murdering police and first responders.
It’s a call for response to the recent killings of police officers here in Maryland and across the country.

Should be for murder of all people.
It should never have been removed in the first place, why as Maryland citizens did we not have a vote for this in the last election? Oh that's right our opinions and what we want don't matter just like they don't in Salisbury with the infant Fake Jake.
1:24 calm down, our lives are not worth as much as the folks that work for the gov't. That's why cops carry and we can't. They want to go home at the end of the day, us, meh.
Yup. That's pretty much exactly what that bill is saying.
Death penalty should be the norm nationwide. Much stiffer penalties are needed.
HBO SPECIAL.
What about equal protection under the law? I do not support any special laws that only apply when harm becomes a cop, just because they are a cop. Its that same old them against us mentality. You get murdered, oh hum. They get murdered, bring out all the resources and penalties. Even cops can murder us, and they will protect themselves from prosecution. If the death penalty is not good enough for the felons that murder citizens, then is should not be a special penalty for felons that murder cops. I'm sick and tired of cops thinking their lives are more important than the lives of those that they are paid to protect. ALL cops will tell you their FIRST priority is to go home at the end of the day (duh, don't we all?). But when you have the training, resources, and responsibility to protect other lives, your first priority should be to do whatever is necessary to protect the lives you are paid to protect, and not just your own life. Remember the coward cop in Florida who hid and listened as the high school teens were gunned down inside the school? I don't think cops like him need any special protections against being murdered. And at the end of the day, most cops are like him.
Your an absolute ignorant Moron. Please never call the police for anything....smh
It's about time! I recall thomas leggs & what he did to little Sarah... That he lives still sickens me. & we have to take care of him for the rest of his life. Bah! Humbug!
Like the bleeding heart liberals would ever carry out an execution anyhow.
Idiot what do you do for a living sleep in parents basement hitting the bong all day. You are why this country is in the shitter
