Bill Lee: “I appreciate this opportunity to be with you today.”

There are a lot of questions.

I hope that Tennessee governor Bill Lee’s decision to postpone the last execution scheduled for this year will give lawmakers time to consider the subject seriously.

It’s exactly why we will have a thorough, comprehensive review of what happened, so that we can know the answers that so many people want.

It’s a tragedy, and it’s deeply disturbing that that has happened in this state. The people deserve better than that.
