Fort Worth Martinez Man Gets The Lethal Texas Needle

I mentioned yesterday that Tarrant County, that being where Fort Worth is, was scheduled to have its 4th Convicted Killer of the year killed last night.

Well, the execution happened on schedule.

The Dallas Morning News reported the latest Texas Execution on page 6 of the A section, as you can see in the picture, in a little blurb at the lower left, next to a big Macy's ad.

Before he was killed, James Edward Martinez told his mom and sister, who were there to watch him get killed, that he loved them.

Martinez then told the assembled execution watchers the "I hope y'all can move on after this."

Doers of evil deeds are always wanting their victims to move on. Or so I've noticed.
