Should Marco Allen Chapman's request to be executed granted? His lawyers say he is not competent.?

CHAPMAN, MARCO ALLEN, DOB 9-4-71, was convicted of murder, 2 counts; attempted murder, 2 counts; rape I; burglary I; robbery I and PFO II. He was formally sentenced on 12-14-2004 to death. In the early morning of August 23, 2002, Marco Chapman murdered a 7-year old girl and a 6-year old boy in their home in Warsaw, Kentucky (Gallatin County). Both the children's throats had been slit and they had multiple lacerations and stab wounds on their bodies. Their 10-year old sister played dead after being stabbed several times. The children's mother's hands were bound with duct tape and she was tied to a bed frame. She was raped and stabbed in the chest with a knife that broke off in her chest. She was later stabbed with a larger knife and left for dead. After stabbing the victims, Chapman burglarized the home and left the scene. He was arrested later the same day by state police in West Virginia.

    Yes, if that's what he wants then he should get his wish. I'd have no problem with them doing the execution tonight.

    Personally, that kind of person should not get any of his requests granted for the rest of their lives. He should go to one of those awful lock-down prisons where people get on the news for going insane all the time. And he should be left there to rot. I think death is the easy way out for people like that.
