Last Words of Death Row Inmates

Found an interesting article which shared the last words of death row inmates.  I went through each statement … searching … wishing …hoping.  In the end, I was disappointed because not one person said: “I’m sorry.”  That sent me searching for other “last words” of those sentenced to death.  The findings of others were not much better.  Most of the inmates were male.  Some females were included. Some were quotes from people I did not immediately think of regarding death row inmates like Saddam Hussein and Benito Mussolini.  I did find one person, John Lamb.  He said:  “I’m sorry, I wish I could bring them back. I’m done, let’s do it.”
