Personal opinion = white people and black people will never get along as a whole. This is just another case of racism obviously because it was a police officers gun, bullets and holster that were used in this crime...come tf on u know that a black person in this era could never get his hands on a police officers gun without it being reported immediately....i just do not and will not ever understand why white people thought it was ok to kill another human being because of the color of the persons skin that they could not choose....inbred and in charge...what could go wrong!?! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:987:301:C550:5CD8:24E8:D091:3DB0 (talk) 11:39, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

POV edit

Come on! "Leather Death Mask"? That is totally in violation of NPOV rules! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ryan1159 (talkcontribs) 00:18, 12 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

While not really POV, it's not entirely correct as the leather hood is not a death mask. I will have to check the page for accuracy anyway as the account is not cited at all. 128.61.20.72 (talk) 16:05, 10 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Age at time of the crime? edit

Anybody know how old this kid was when the crime was committed? It would appear by counting the months that he was either 15 or 16. Either way the kid was 18 when the US government killed him. Is this right? Do they still kill kids and those who committed crimes when they were a kid in the USA?--85.94.113.121 (talk) 20:02, 28 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Discrepance edit

On the electric chair page it says he was the first botched execution in the United States but this page says it is the last. (first-last may be inverted in this sentence). Can someone take a look into this? - An anonymous reader. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.1.61.8 (talk) 18:32, 4 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

The Boy who Collected Crimes edit

Are we sure The Residents referred to Willie Francis in a song? I'm having a bit of trouble locating the song plus i think its Kid not Boy 71.167.61.141 (talk) 11:00, 5 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
