I dissented in Ex parte Oswalt, 686 So.2d 368 (Ala. 1996); I dissented in Ex parte Turner 792 So.2d 1141 (Ala. 2000). I am inclined to dissent again, because I think Oswalt and Turner
were wrongly decided. However, the majority of the Court now sitting has not concluded that Oswalt and Turner were wrongly decided, so at this point I feel compelled to follow Oswalt and Turner. I concur in the result, but not in the opinion — to show that I did not go gently into the dark night.
