When they executed Karla Faye Tucker you should have seen the coverage in the UK. Sky News were treating it like Texas was having a live lynching. It almost turned me Anti for a second. Boy they did a good job on making Karla out to be an innocent sweetie and the rest of the US a big bad ogre. I actually recorded it but its on VHS. If I can transfer it onto another video, i'll post it on youtube someday. Tell me if she gets the attention Karla Faye Tucker gets. Personally I don't think she will but you'll have to if she does.

Remember also Karla was supposed to have been a "born again" Christian, and regretted what she had done.

Texas Women’s Death Row Inmate Almost Out Of Time, Options Kimberly McCarthy (Texas prison photo) GATESVILLE (January 25, 2013)--The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles unanimously refused a clemency request Friday from women’s death row inmate Kimberly McCarthy, who’s scheduled to die next Tuesday for the July 1997 murder of a retired college professor during a robbery. Her attorneys were seeking a 120-day reprieve and commutation of her sentence to life in prison, but the seven-member board turned her down. McCarthy was convicted and sentenced to death in November 1998 for the July 21, 1997 murder of her neighbor, Dorothy Booth, 71, at Booth’s home in Lancaster. Evidence showed McCarthy went to Booth’s home on the pretense of borrowing sugar and then stabbed the retired professor five times and hit her in the face with a candelabrum. She cut off Booth’s left ring finger to take a diamond ring and nearly severed Booth’s left little finger as well, evidence showed. She fled with Booth’s purse and wedding ring and later bought drugs with the stolen money, used the stolen credit cards and pawned the stolen ring, evidence showed. On Jan. 7, the U.S. Supreme Court without comment, refused to review McCarthy’s case. McCarthy is one of 10 women on women's death row at the Mountainview Unit in Gatesville, but the only one with an execution date. She would be the fourth Texas woman put to death since the state resumed carrying out capital punishment in 1982.

kimberly Mccarthys victim.. She cut Retired collage professors miss dorothy booths finger off just to get her ring & killed her. RIP Dorothy Booth. Thanks a lot that you did honour the victim as well - most of the time the poor victims got forgotten - Bringing the attention up to the poor innocent victims will also make understandable - that some people support the death penalty

4 women (if McCarthys goes ahead) in 31 years. Might as well give them LWOP, seems most serve that anyway. Think about it from the victims family side of the fence. I doubt I could suffer waiting over three decades for justice, and it being all dredged up and made 'bold' again in headline news 30 years later. Think id sooner opt for the 'lock 'em up and throw the key away' option.
For sure I would want a loved ones killer to swing but doubt id have the strength to wait 30 years.

Such a shame that people forget about the faces of the victims, personally a photo of them should be hovered over them when the juice goes in, after all the last thing that poor lady saw was her killers face!

Like what Gerard Butlers character did to the scumbag killer in Law Abiding Citizen? Definately!

Oh yes I really enjoyed that film. In my opinion the crime scene pictures such be scarred into their minds, eyes and souls, when you listen to the tales from death row they all seem to put their crimes to the back of their minds as they are different people and it was a silly mistake, tell that to the families who still suffer because of scum in death row. Their crime should be shoved in their athletic faces daily, there should be no forgetting, no television, no games, no cats, no exercise NOTHING sit there and think about all you have done. Needless to say. Would never be a prime candidate for a warden!

Personally I haven't even heard her mentioned in the news. Not sure if she has a big following. Has Felix sent her a dozen roses yet?

So what are the odds on this being carried out? This board has a pretty good track record for these things.

Check this out from the nutso site: In exchange for the release of Kimberly McCarthy, I offer....myself. If the State Of Texas requires a body, they may have mine. I will take full responsibility for transport to Dallas-Ft. Worth, where I will surrender myself to authorities for execution as soon as Ms. McCarthy is released. I will make not attempt to prolong or save my life. January 29th will serve nicely and I will be sure to be present on or before that date. I will happily sign a contract or other agreement with the State Of Texas, so that I will have been granted "due process". What do you say, Governor Ryan? The world will be no better off for Kimberly McCarthy's death. If you wish to persist in this farce, you may as well use me as needle fodder.
