"All the people who are hating me
right now and are here waiting to see me die, when you wake up in the morning
you aren't going to feel any different. You are going to hate
me as much tomorrow as you do tonight. When you wake up and nothing
has changed inside, reach out to God...He will heal you. Let Him touch
your hearts. Don't hate all your lives." - Sean's last words

Scotty Moore - Executed in Oklahoma
- June 3, 1999
Executed by Oklahoma June
3rd - Scotty Moore was a friend to all prisoners and an activist while on
death row in Oklahoma. Many people loved and miss Scotty.In his words,
" I am a person, not a cause, and my family and friends are real." Despite
a plea from the Pope, Killer Keating executed him anyway.
Oklahoma State Law prevented Catholics from
having
Last Rites administered before execution !
(This explains
Keating's refusal to hear the Pope's pleas for clemency in the case of
Scotty Moore)
There are just too
many victims of the killing Governor to list here !
