I wasn't sure where to put this question, I hope here is ok. Could someone tell me who served the longest time on death row before they met thier punishment and who is longest serving now? Purely curious reasons. I have read a lot of death row sites but none seem to carry that info. Thanks in advance

Thanks in advance Excell White Collin 511 8,854 days (24 years) 3/30/99 This is what I could find in Texas, don't know if there is anyone else. FYI he is just one year shy of serving a life sentence in Canada

Thanks Andie. Life is meant to be 25 years here but it never is. Part of the abolishment of the death penalty was that life would mean life. That's what the politicians told my Dads generation. Life now means 15 years. LWOP here usually means hospital care not a prison. I cannot tell you how much our judicial system frustrates me

There is this one guy who killed his wife, son and daughter in my area and served 25 years and is out. He was recently seen at an xmas party by a family friend. It angers me that he is allowed to walk the streets.

FYI he is just one year shy of serving a life sentence in Canada I wish that was the longest. Jack Alderman was sentenced to death in 1975 and executed in 2008. However, he had to be retried and resentenced in 1984 so depending on how you look at it he either spent 33 or 24 years on death row. The longest on death row not is Gary Alvord. He is still under the same death sentence handed down in 1974 for three rapes murders in Florida in 1973.

I prefer Leroy Nash, not the longest on Death Row but he is now in his nineties, and been on the row for 27 years. He is at least the oldest.
Must have some good lawyers. No way he will be executed. Food can't be too bad in Arizona if he has lived that long.

Bell, hello . I agree with you on the state of our sentencing in Blighty. Did you hear last week about that bastard who killed his 3 month old kid in Doncaster, he was giving life and the judge said that he can not be ellegible for parole until 11 years. i nearly screamed at the TV. Life should mean life and i would gladly pay more in taxes for it to mean just that but if you want this to happen then vote for the UK Independence Party next month in the European elections and the General elections in 2 years. they have openly said that they will bin the Human right act handed to us by europe and signed by the Labour scummers and then life will mean life. Premeditated murder, All Peadophiles, killing of police, Soldiers and Emergency Services staff, children and pensioners, rape murder etc should mean LWOP. Im a true blue tory but im considering voting UKIP because im pissed off with mandy pandy liberals too.

Could we hook an extension cord to his wheel chair,plug it in, and watch his teeth fly across the room?
Does Alzheimer's count as mentally retarded?

Thomas Creech has been on death row for 28 years, since 1981 in Idaho with no end in sight.

there are quite a few in California from 1979 and one is gone over the edge so doubt could execute a man who doesn't even know reality anymorel.

I just read that there are 10 inmates on Florida's death row that were sentenced to death more than 30 years ago. (This list says 11 but one has been executed since the article was written.) www.fadp.org/news/dec7-5.html

There is a serious problem to allow anyone a stay of 20+ years on death row. The fact that we can put together a list is quite distrubing.
