HOUSTON – A Texas death row inmate with a history of mental problems pulled out his only good eye and told authorities he ate it.
Andre Thomas, 25, was arrested for the fatal stabbings of his estranged wife, their young son and her 13-month-old daughter in March 2004. Their hearts also had been ripped out. He was convicted and condemned for the infant's death.
While in the Grayson County Jail in Sherman, Thomas plucked out his right eye before his trial later in 2004. A judge subsequently ruled he was competent to stand trial.

The problem is Precedence here.
If anyone who commits evil murders like this was able to just pluck an eye out and avoid the death penalty in replacement for a insane home the system would be flawed.
This is an evil sole, that imo, needs to be purged.

Keep in mind he did it twice. To BOTH eyes. Plus he cut his victims hearts out and carried them around in his pocket for a while. Then he turned himself in at the local police station.
If that does not prove insanity, well I can't imagine what would.
