“It looks promising, but we will do a thorough review to determine the merits of the proposal. The governor said, 'The devil is in the details,' which he's learned especially with Scripps, so we'll do a very thorough review of it.”
“It's unfortunate that after more than two decades on Death Rows, and several years since lethal injection was instituted, that these objections would be raised at the last minute. It causes undue stress on the victims' families.”

“Scripps has lived up to every commitment they have made and it's clear that the onus is now on the county to locate and select a suitable site for their home.”
“Scripps serves as a prime example that it should not be assumed that when a biotech institute expands, they are planning on duplicating the research they are currently conducting at existing facilities.”
