Serial Killer Tommy Lynn Sells Executed With New Drug Supply
Took long enough! Texas usually kills first and asks questions later. MICHAEL GRACZYK HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) — A serial killer has been put to death in Texas after the U.S. Supreme Court rejected his lawyers' demand that the state release information about where it gets its lethal injection drug. Tommy Lynn Sells was executed Thursday evening. He became the first inmate injected with a dose of newly replenished pentobarbital that Texas prison officials obtained to replace an expired supply of the sedative. His attorneys had hoped the courts would force prison officials to reveal more information about the pharmacy that supplied the drug. They argued the new pentobarbital could lead to unconstitutional pain. The state prison agency wants the information kept secret to protect the pharmacy from threats of violence. Sells was sentenced to death for fatally stabbing a 13 year old South Texas girl in 1999. Photos The gurney in the death chamber is shown in this May 27, 2008 file photo from Huntsville, Texas.

I wouldn't like to live in some countries, but, I do love the, "eye for an eye," punishment in some! Let the families have at the perps! If nothing else, he should have had his hands and penis chopped off and left to survive in jail! |
