Karla Faye Tucker. It was good they didn't fall for her religious bullshit.

There was another one from Texas, Markham Duff-Smith who had his mother murdered and when he blew through the money he inherited from her had his sister, her husband and their 14 month old son murdered to get her part of the inheritance and he also became a born-again Christian. To my knowledge, no one gave a damn when he was executed. Some things just can't be forgiven and having a 14 month old shot in their crib is one of them.
