Dr. Joel Hochman labeled Gary Gilmore mentally ill and criticized Utah courts for yielding to his wish to die by firing squad. He argued the move sets a dangerous precedent that human life is cheap and warns against televised executions and state participation in self-harm. Hochman urged treatment over execution and condemned capital punishment as a deterrent and societal failure.
