Rome - A plan to broadcast the execution of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh to relatives of those who died in the blast is "disgusting" and will not necessarily help the healing process, Catholic representatives have said.
McVeigh is due to be killed by lethal injection on May 16th and his death will be watched on closed-circuit television by some 300 people, including relatives of the 168 killed when he bombed a federal building in 1995. "This is just making a spectacle of capital punishment," moral theologian Father Gino Concetti said. "It is a disgusting form of publicity."
