Body Bags  with Joseph Scott Morgan: Firing Squad Execution FAIL,  From 5 Yards Away

Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan: Firing Squad Execution FAIL, From 5 Yards Away

Mikal Mahdi was just 21-years-old when he began a crime spree that spanned four states and included two murders. One of the victims was James Myers, a 56-year-old Police Captain with the Orangeburg Public Safety Department in South Carolina. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack discuss the crime spree and the murders that landed Mahdi a date with the executioners and how the firing squad, that seemed like such a good idea compared to other methods of death, didn't work out as planned. Did three shooters ALL miss the mark on Mikal Mahdi or was the "mark" misplaced?
