QUESTION OF THE DAY: Should Missouri continue using the death penalty?
Christopher Collings became the fourth person this year to die by lethal injection in Missouri on Tuesday.
Missouri is among 27 states to have the death penalty on the books and one of the most prolific in using it -- only Alabama and Texas have used it more in 2024, according to the Death Penalty Information Center.
Many would argue Collings' case is a good one for capital punishment. He was convicted of raping and killing a fourth-grade girl after briefly living with her family in southwest Missouri.
Others, however, say capital punishment should rarely, if ever, be used.
