HUNTSVILLE, Texas - A paroled burglar who claimed he wanted to be a serial killer of minorities was executed Wednesday night for the torture-slaying eight years ago of a 19-year-old mentally impaired woman who once worked with him.

Robert Neville Jr., apologizing profusely, addressed his victim's mother by name as she and her two daughters stood close to the glass with their arms around each other. He expressed love to them.

"I hope you can find it in yourselves to forgive me and I hope all this here will kind of settle your pain. And I hope the Lord will give you comfort and peace. I just want you to know I am very sorry for what I have done," he said.

Referring to his victim, Amy Robinson, 19, Neville, said, "If I see Amy on the other side, I will tell her how much you love and miss her. And we will have a lot to talk about."

That girl was kidnapped only a few miles from where I live...I followed that story from the first minutes she was discovered missing...

I was ecstatic when I found out this scum was being executed today!

Yay, but it would be better to have him worked to death on a hot Texas chain gang.

Hopefully, where that scumbag is going, he won't see her.

If he sees Amy on the other side, he gets to be her slave. That's how it works.

Good riddance!

See, California, THAT's how you empty out your death row!

Neville, 31, was the third prisoner executed this year and the first of three over the next 15 days in the nation's most active capital punishment state.

WHAT? Bush isn't governor any more and they are STILL executing people once very 2 weeks?

If he really repented, then God will have mercy on him.

However, he had to pay his debt in this life. What happens in the great beyond is not up to us.

"I just want you to know I am very sorry for what I have done,""

Why can't these subhumans figure this out before they prey.

Job's half done. His running mate, Michael Wayne Hall, is also on death row for the crime. Another one with the middle name of Wayne...hmmm...

An execution was carried out fairly against a culpable defendant and justice is done. The execution should be publicized not to gloat, but send a message about the sanctity of innocent life & a warning to others who are thinking of committing murder.

I'm glad that the guilty party apologized for his crimes. As for whether he's in a better place, it's our obligation to hope so, but in the hands of a higher power.

He should be grateful for those 8 years. We've had prisoners spend less than a year on The Row before execution.

He will be sodomized by the Fallen and have his bowels shredded by a demonic ejaculate of burning sand.
