Lord saying, “Whom shall I
send? And who will go for us?”
And I said, “Here I am. Send
me!” (Isa. 6:8)

Death Row Facts
Death Row was located in the East Building of the Huntsville Unit
from 1928 to 1952. From 1952 until 1965, the electric chair was located
in a building by the East Wall of the Huntsville Unit.
The men on Death Row were moved from the Huntsville Unit to the
Ellis Unit in 1965. Death Row remained at the Ellis Unit until 1999. In
1999, the TDCJ moved Death Row to the Polunsky Unit. The Polunsky
Unit houses Death Row offenders separately in single-person cells
measuring 60 square feet, with each cell having a window. Death Row
offenders are also recreated individually.
Offenders on Death Row receive a regular diet; have access to
reading, writing, and legal materials. Depending upon their custody ,
some Death Row offenders are allowed to have a radio. The women on
Death Row are housed at the Mountain View Unit. Offenders on Death
Row do not have regular TDCJ-ID numbers, but have special Death

Last Statement:
First of all I would like to give my sincere apology to Amy's family.
We caused a lot of heartache, grief, pain and suffering, and I am
sorry. I know it won't bring her back. I would like to sing, I would like
to sing for that person's dead. The old is gone. I am not the same
person that I used to be, that person is dead. It's up to you if you
would find it in your heart to forgive.
As for my family, I am sorry I let you down. I caused a lot of
heartache, and I ask for your forgiveness. I am not crying for myself,
I am crying for the lost and those that are dying for their sins, those
that are committing suicide, those that don't know God and have
never been set free. I've been locked up 13 years. I am not locked
up inside, all of these years I have been free. Christ has changed
me. Even though I have to die for my mistake, he paid for mine by
wages could never pay. Here I am a big strong youngster, crying like
a baby. I am man enough to show my emotions and I am sorry. I am
sorry for everything. I wish I could take it back, but I can't.

Last Statement:
Yes, sir. I just want to say to all my supporters, family and friends; I
love y'all and appreciate y'all. To the ones representing me today,
thank you for everything. The system has failed me. This is a
miscarriage of justice. There are people on death row that need help.
I love my family. I love you too, Mom. I am alright. I asked the Lord to
have mercy on me and I hope He has mercy on these people
carrying out this mass slaughter. They have no respect for humanity.
To Melanie, I never meant to hurt you. You were just in 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 and for
the doctors to continue to take care of you. Take care of my mother
for me. To everybody, know that I love you and I am OK. Lord, have
mercy on my soul. Lord, have mercy on my soul. Lord, have mercy
on these peoples' soul. Life is not supposed to end this way. No more
pain and frustration. When I knock at the gates, they will open up and
let me in. To my mom and everybody, I love you. I can feel it right
now. My life, my life.
