guarantee i'd do it again and sooner or later i would kill another child i've done it before and at the time i liked it in 1989 wesley allen dodd pleaded guilty to his crimes of taking the lives of three boys dodd killed brothers william near 10 and cole near 11 in a vancouver park before strangling four-year-old lee iselli a month later in 1990 dodd was sentenced to death he was given the option of lethal injection or death by hanging he chose to be hanged for his crimes and dropped all appeals believing he had to die he stated numerous times i will kill and whip again and enjoy every minute of it god was hanged on the 5th of january 1993 his final words were i was once asked by somebody i don't remember who if there was any way sex offenders could be stopped i said no i was wrong

face of evil don't they they do but sitting down here now and let me make clear i'm not sitting here trying to influence you and i'm not putting on a game face i'm not conning anybody i'm just being me in 1995 timothy mcveigh took on the nickname oklahoma city bomber after setting off a bomb he created that killed 149 adults and 19 children at an oklahoma city federal building he was sentenced to death and when his time came in 2001 he chose to remain silent the entire time the lethal injection took place he did however leave a note behind in place of his valid final words quoting the last few lines of the poem invictus by sir william ernest henley timothy mcveigh was executed by lethal injection on the 11th of june 2001. his final words were written i am the master of my fate i am the captain of my soul if you ask any of the families of the oklahoma city bomber's victims they'd say he got off easy and considering some of the other people on this list he pretty much did for those people who have been given the death penalty who have been convicted have taken another's life what should society do okay well one of the main arguments of the death penalty is that it will potentially deter other people from committing crimes i think you will definitely not the case of robert sullivan is an interesting one convicted of murdering donald schmidt an employee in the howard johnson restaurant where sullivan used to work schmidt was shot in the head twice with the use of a shotgun in 1972. sullivan was on death row for over 10 years and he fought the death penalty with support from the likes of pope john paul ii unfortunately for sullivan he was unsuccessful in convincing the supreme court that the death penalty was an ineffective cruel punishment sullivan was executed via electric chair on the 1st of december 1983. sullivan delivered his final words after fighting the very cause of his death in spite of what is about to happen to me do not quit i hold no malice to none may god bless us all sullivan spent so much of his sentence never fighting the charges against him but instead fighting the punishment his final words while accepting are doused in defeat that he wasn't able to change his fate are you frightened about next week well death is death a person said one time he said that's a horrible way of dying i said what is a good way could you tell me what a good way is to die billy wayne koble was arrested for the murder of robert and zelda vicha his estranged wife's parents and her brother bobby vicha in 1989. before he murdered kane vicha's family he went to her home and tied her and her daughters up kobel remains the oldest man to be executed in texas in more than a hundred years the death penalty was reinstated in texas in 1982 a little under a decade before the crimes billy wayne coble committed landed him in prison and on death row billy wayne coble was executed via lethal injection on the 28th of february 2019. his rapid fire final words were yes sir that'll be five dollars i love you i love you and i love you mike i love you where's nelly at i love you that will be five dollars take care i don't really know what five dollars means but when he said this it was all directed at his family made up of five people all in attendance coincidence from texas to florida and from a lesser-known killer to one of the most well-known killers let's move on to my experience with let's say pornography generally but with pornography that deals on a violent level with sexuality is that once you become addicted to it and i look at this as a kind of addiction like other kinds of addiction of addiction you keep i would keep looking for more potent more explicit more graphical signs of material like an addiction you keep craving something which is harder harder something which which gives you a greater sense of excitement ted bundy is one of the most notorious serial killers known to the world he's been the subject of countless films and documentaries for his various acts of abuse and violence perpetrated throughout the 70s bundy in his time murdered more than 30 women many claim that bundy's final words are nothing more than the means of a sociopath to elicit sympathy from the ones he heard most it doesn't necessarily mean they actually mean what they're saying in the case of bundy nobody will ever really know his final words for many were creepy considering the heinous nature of ted's crimes ted bundy was thrown in the electric chair on the 24th of january 1989 bundy's final words were i'd like you to give my love to my family and my friends oh ted you you creep creep seems fair the thing about psychos is you never really know what the hell is going on in their head and in the case of ted bundy i'm not sure the truth will ever really be known or understood speaking of never understanding a psycho how have you prepared yourself for tomorrow morning i'm all right with it yeah i'm ready to go hey i was tortured at bci eileen wuernos was a prolific criminal between 1989 and 1990. over seven bodies of middle-aged white men were all discovered throughout central florida they'd been robbed and shot before eileen stole their cars eileen never showed remorse for her actions she dropped all attempts at getting off death row when she claimed that she'd do it again if released and even stated i have hate crawling through my system during her time in prison she accused everyone from guards to prisoners of tainting her food and torturing her eileen wuernos was executed via lethal injection on the 9th of october 2002. her final words were weird to say the least i think weird might be an understatement before execution eileen wunos looked at the executioner and everyone else to deliver this haunting set of final words i'd just like to say i'm sailing with the rock and i'll be back like independence day with jesus june 6th like the movie big mothership and all i'll be back well that was a whole bunch of wtf don't worry we're not done with crazy just yet our next death row serial killer was a religious man too bad that religion was praising satan a serial killer comes about by circumstances and like a recipe poverty drugs child abuse these things you know contribute to a person to a person's frustration and anger and at some point in life he explodes between 1984 and 1985 richard ramirez terrorized california and was nicknamed the night stalker across la county he'd break into homes and use various weapons like guns knives and even hammers to butcher his victims ramirez didn't discriminate in who he attacked his youngest victim was six and his oldest was 83 before killing his victims finally in 1989 the serial killer and devout satan worshipper was brought to justice he was sentenced to death for 13 murders 5 attempted murders 11 sexual assaults and 13 burglaries richard ramirez while sentenced to death died just before his execution in 2013. his final reported words were hail satan it's funny because when it comes to the next death row murderer we have someone who might as well be the devil that one mother that gets on television all the time who thinks i should be given 33 injections i think she ought to take 33 valiants and go lay down also known as the killer clown john wayne gacy was responsible for the murders of over 33 young men and boys gacy would lure his victims in with the promise of a job drugs alcohol or money for sex otherwise he'd simply grab them off the street or con them using a sheriff's badge before murdering and burying the bodies gacy would and torture his victims repeatedly in gacy's private life he was a member of the jolly joker clown club which is one of the reasons for his nickname the clown the other reason he'd always tell his victims as he killed them this is the final trick after repeatedly playing tricks on them as a means of torture john wayne gacy was executed via lethal injection on the 10th of may 1994. his final words emblematic of his lacking empathy or ownership of his crimes were kiss my ass at the end of the day the not so charming john wayne gacy was nothing more than a clown let's imagine his character's name was bozo well bozo's act was cut short and thank god for that but our next death row inmate was a fighter who fought against the very same capital punishment that took the lives of many on this list he wasn't successful but he tried it caught me off guard i didn't expect it uh i didn't think mine would be the first one signed after it was signed no uh well it was just something he had to accept john spankling was a drifter who was charged and convicted of murdering a travelling companion spankling never wavered in his convictions that what he did was done out of self-defense spankling was the first man to be placed on death row in florida after the u.s supreme court reinstated capital punishment in 1976. spanglink was executed via electric chair on the 25th of may 1979. his final words a comment on the system of capital punishment as a whole were capital punishment then without the capital get the punishment for everyone on this list john spankling fought against the reinstatement of the death penalty in the us while he wasn't successful and ended up being the first in florida to get the death penalty our final death row inmate is thankfully not another person from florida which judging by this list puts the capital in capital punishment honestly after the amount of death row inmates that have died in florida i wonder if florida needs to be arrested and tried as a serial killer when you're a board that dispenses privilege and i've always thought the privileges were sought desired earned and deserved and i seek nothing from you i don't desire anything from you i haven't earned anything i won't deserve anything either gary gilmore was the first man to be executed following the supreme court decision allowing capital punishment to resume in the united states in 1976. gilmore was convicted of murdering a motel manager in utah which resulted in his death sentence interesting fact but nike advertising executive dan whedon actually credited gary gilmore's final words as the inspiration behind the shoe brand's tagline gary gilmore was executed via firing squad on the 17th of january 1977. his final words were let's do it what is really interesting about all of these serial killers is how the punishment can vary so drastically between circumstances the punishment doesn't always fit the crime but nobody will ever agree on what punishment actually does
