“Executions contribute to a culture of death and draw us further away from a culture of reconciliation that Jesus calls us to build upon.” “Tonight’s execution of #MatthewReeves represents a legal system that allows violence to serve as a cheap replacement for true justice,” the Catholic Mobilizing Network posted on social media on Thursday. The Catholic Mobilizing Network, an organization that advocates against the death penalty, called the execution the latest example of the culture of death that exists in modern society. The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) defines intellectual disability by significant defects in functional and adaptive skills and an IQ score below 70. Both the prosecution and the defense in the case tested Reeves for intellectual disability and found that his IQ was in the high 60s, or low 70s.
