Milton Wuzael Mathis

Executed June 21, 2011 06:53 p.m. CDT by Lethal Injection in Texas



Crime:

Six people were in a well known drug house in Fort Bend County. At 8:30 a.m. Mathis pulled a handgun and shot Travis Brown in the head. After herding the others in the same room he then calmly shot 15 year old Melanie Almaguer in the head, then shot Daniel Hibbard. Next, he pointed the gun at Melanie's mother and pulled the trigger, but the gun was out of bullets. Mathis then rummaged through the house, set fire to Brown's room, threatened the others and left in Brown's car. Almaguer survived the shooting, but was permanently paralyzed from the neck down. Brown and Hibbard died. Testimony from the others in the home identified Mathis as the shooter. Mathis persuaded his girlfriend to give him an alibi, which she maintained until confronted by police. A fellow inmate testified that Mathis showed no remorse for the shootings and stated that he wished he had killed all of them. At trial, Mathis took the stand and at first denied being at the house. After defense counsel requested a recess, Mathis took the stand and stated that he had lied and admitted that he had shot all three people and taken Brown’s car. Mathis claimed he shot Brown in self-defense after Brown had threatened to shoot him. He claimed that he shot the others because he panicked.

Final/Special Meal:

Five Texas burgers all the way with bacon, five fried pork chops, five pieces of fried chicken, five pieces of fried fish, an order of chili cheese fries with a whole jalapeno, an order of regular fries and an extra large gallon of fruit punch.


Last Words:

"I never meant to hurt you," Mathis said to his surviving paralyzed victim, Melanie Almaguerer. "You were just at the wrong place at the wrong time. I am not asking for your forgiveness. All I have to worry about is God forgiving me. I hope you get better. To the doctors, make sure you take care of her." He also thanked his friends and relatives, and asked for mercy for himself and "these people carrying out this mass slaughter. The system has failed me. This is what you call a miscarriage of justice. Life is not supposed to end this way ... I just ask the Lord, when I knock at the gates, you just let me in."

What a weird head... i though was an alien

Jeffrey David Matthews

Executed January 11, 2011 06:09 p.m. CDT by Lethal Injection in Oklahoma



Crime:

Matthews was convicted and sentenced to death for the January 1994 murder of 77-year-old Otis Earl Short during a robbery of Short’s home in Rosedale. Prosecutors said Matthews was one of two men who stormed into Short’s home east of Rosedale. Testimony indicated that Matthews shot Short once in the head at close range with a .45-caliber pistol and that a second man, Tracy Dyer, cut the throat of Short’s wife, Minnie Short. The men fled in Otis Short’s truck with $500 in cash and a .32-caliber pistol. Minnie Short survived and died later of natural causes. Dyer, 36, was convicted of first-degree murder and other charges and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Final/Special Meal:

A deep dish meat lover's pizza, deep fried jumbo shrimp and two hush puppies with vinegar sauce.

Final Words:

“Let my mother know I love her. I just want to thank everyone for their support. I also want to thank all my buddies on death row. I hear you banging.” Shortly before the lethal drugs began flowing, Matthews looked at his relatives and said with a smile: “I think that governor’s phone is broke. He hadn’t called yet.”

Why do we even give these SOB's the benefit of such a hearty last meal. This bastard killed senior citizens. My grandma's not even in her late 70s yet so it hits home to read this.

Martin Link Final Words:

"The state says killing is wrong, so why do they do it? For revenge. Where is the closure? There is none. The death penalty is an act of revenge. Many men sit on death row, some innocent, some not. So what happens when a man is executed and it's later learned he was, in fact, innocent? He can't be brought back."

FUCK YOU YOU PIECE OF SHIT!
