South Carolina death row inmate dies by state’s first lethal injection in 13 years

South Carolina death row inmate dies by state’s first lethal injection in 13 years



This man only brutally murdered two people 
1. The mother of three he shot in the face so he could steal $40 
2. And the guy he beat to death his first night in jail in front of 10 other people


Owens, 46, was sentenced to death in 1999 for killing a convenience store clerk Irene Graves during a robbery in Greenville, South Carolina, when he was 19 years old.

Owens was pronounced dead at 6:55 p.m. ET, state officials said at a news conference Friday evening. He made no final statement.

South Carolina’s Supreme Court declined on Thursday to halt his execution and Gov. Henry McMaster chose not to grant Owens the requested clemency.


Fair enough. Does he deserve to be killed? A pre-fetus may present a situation in which that mass of cells may develop into an individual that is nothing but a strain on society. At what point do you question where your hard earned taxes play a part in the society we've been handed? As much as I disagree with the actions this man has taken in the past, I'm not firmiliar with what his mindset was at that time, how he was perceiving reality when he took part in those actions and what led up to that situation. Drugs are a he'll of a drug and people can change, especially when they are considerably forced to refrain from any mind altering substances they might obtain from the free streets of which the rest of us of may be familiar. Death is rarely the answer for a modern civilized society


The guys been a waste of resources since 2011. When they sentenced him to death. It’s been long enough of tax payer funded incarceration.
