John Fetterman bases his decision on whether a murderer deserves clemency on a Stephen King movie

As Twitchy reported earlier, reporter Dave Weigel recently interviewed Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman (over Google Meet, of course) and the subject of the black jogger he chased down with his truck and held at gunpoint came up. Fetterman, without pushback, said it was “a split-second decision in the face of gunfire” — except there was no gunfire.

Fetterman has been criticized as soft on crime and wanting to release murderers onto the streets, so Weigel asked him when someone convicted of first-degree murder deserved clemency. Fetterman then described “The Morgan Freeman Test”:

That reads:

It’s really a very simple choice. I believe the perfect metaphor is “The Shawshank Redemption.” That’s a touchstone that virtually everybody has seen, everybody understands. I’ve asked people, would you want Morgan Freeman to die in prison or not? And I’ve never met anybody that says, “Yeah, he should die in prison. I would have voted to have him die in prison.”

Well, should Jack Nicholson have died in prison for killing Scatman Crothers like that in “The Shining?”

Should the clown in “It” have been given life in prison without parole? Think about it.
