Title: Texas puts online last words of over 300 executed criminals
Post by: Syt on October 02, 2009, 10:04:11 AM

I like the one from Clifford Philips:
http://www.tdcj.state.tx.us/stat/phillipscliffordlast.htm
QuoteI want to express my feelings regarding the mishap of the deceased Mrs. Iris Siff. That was a very unfortunate incident and only God knows why it was an unintentional situation that took place. I want to express my remorse to the family and the discomfort and pain I caused in their lives. Only God will determine if I am truly guilty or innocent of being the type of person I have been drawn up to be by the press and media. I have given my wife the power and energy to be a disciple of Islam. I rescued her from a wretched life in Ireland. I thank Allah for sending her to me. Certainly murder cannot be an instrument of Allah. My wife is very devoted.

Starts all  :bowler: only to catch you off foot and suddenly go  :osama:

To be fair, the guy in question just raped & killed his grandmother -- since he didn't eat her I don't find Syt's German-ness germaine to the topic...

The site makes an interesting read. Some moving addresses. Many placing their fate in God's hand. Quite a few claiming their innocence or speaking out against death penalty (surprisingly), while others seek forgeiveness and admit they deserve this. Others try to handle the situation with some humour or defiance.

This guy shot and killed a police officer who was questioning him about some robberies:

QuoteI want to thank Father Walsh for his spiritual help. I want to thank Bob Ray (Sanders) and Steve Blow for their friendship. What I want people to know is that they call me a cold-blooded killer when I shot a man that shot me first. The only thing that convicted me was that I am a Mexican and that he was a police officer. People hollered for my life, and they are to have my life tonight. The people never hollered for the life of the policeman that killed a thirteen-year-old boy who was handcuffed in the back seat of a police car. The people never hollered for the life of a Houston police officer who beat up and drowned Jose Campo Torres and threw his body in the river. You call that equal justice. This is your equal justice. This is America's equal justice. A Mexican's life is worth nothing. When a policeman kills someone he gets a suspended sentence or probation. When a Mexican kills a police officer this is what you get. From there you call me a cold-blooded murderer. I didn't tie anyone to a stretcher. I didn't pump any poison into anybody's veins from behind a locked door. You call this justice. I call this and your society a bunch of cold-blooded murderers. I don't say this with any bitterness or anger. I just say this with truthfulness. I hope God forgives me for all my sins. I hope that God will be as merciful to society as he has been to me. I'm ready, Warden.

He shot me first!

If the education level listed means that he had the educational achievements expected of an 11 year old, I am not entirely surprised that his last words appear somewhat uncaring both of his crime and of his fate.

I would think that means either he was in the public school system for 11 years or made it to 11th grade. I'm not sure which.

There was a star wars comic where Solo was on trial for shooting Greedo and he showed the "real" footage of what happened, "proving" Solo acted in self defense. Despite prosecution objections that it was an outrageous forgery, the jury found Solo innocent.

They have "other", though. A Samoan who raped and killed his 9 year old girl cousin and a South Vietnamese who shot two other Vietnamese in the "Tam Game Room".
