	"description": "Remember the victim (Lori Ann Smith), but NOT with more killing. None of who Virgil Presnell is excuses his crime. HOWEVER, because of this background and because government should not be trusted with the power to kill, Virgil Presnell&#x27;s crime does not excuse our killing him now, some 45 years later. Presnell&#x27;s mother drank large amounts of alcohol while she was pregnant with him, and a history of serious developmental disabilities is well-documented in his school records, [the Clemency petition argues], adding that he grew up in an “abusive and unstable environment,” and sexual abuse was “endemic” in his family. Even when he was arrested, his significant cognitive limitations were on display. Under questioning by police, he confessed to every open crime against children in the county. Georgia has not executed in several years, but plans to do so between May 17th and May 24th. A stay is I effect as of May 17th Sign the petition to a halt to the execution of Virgil Presnell!",
