A Florida man convicted of shooting two young sisters in the head after raping and shooting their mother was executed Tuesday after a two-hour delay while authorities awaited final rulings from the U.S. Supreme Court.
Richard "Ric Ric" Henyard, 34, was pronounced dead at 8:16 p.m. He had been condemned for the death of 7-year-old Jamilya Lewis and her 3-year-old sister, Jasmine.

Henyard and a younger accomplice carjacked Dorothy Lewis and her daughters outside a grocery store in the central Florida town of Eustis on the night of Jan. 30, 1993. Henyard, then 18, raped Lewis and then shot her multiple times at close range, but she survived. He then participated in the shooting deaths of her daughters after they cried out for their mother.

Lewis and her daughters had gone to a Winn-Dixie about 10 p.m. when they were carjacked by Henyard and 14-year-old Alfonza Smalls.
Smalls repeatedly demanded that Lewis "shut the girls up" because they were crying.
At one point, Lewis beseeched Jesus for help and Henyard replied, "This ain't Jesus, this is Satan."
Henyard and Smalls raped Lewis before Henyard shot her in the leg, neck, mouth and between the eyes. She was rolled off the side of the road and left for dead.
As they were driven away by Henyard and Smalls, the girls yelled: "I want my Mommy! Mommy, Mommy!"
A short time later, the girls were taken from the car and killed with gunshot wounds to the head.

Ric Ric is finally dead dead.
Libs everywhere mourn his loss.
What? No review of the delicious last meal?
“Ric Ric is finally dead dead.”
One less Obama supporter.
Off topic:
Did most of the threads just disappear?
Evil incarnate.
His death came far too late and was far too painless.
15 years for this low-life to consume oxygen on the taxpayer dime! Disgusting!
This scum got to live almost 16 years after he committed his crime. 6 years longer than the combined ages of the girls he killed.
Sad.
this son of a bitch should have been hung by the neck with a piano wire....
“Did most of the threads just disappear?”
It appears so.
One Less Zer0bama Voter. Why did he live so long?...SCUM!!!!!!
yeah, i got a “no such thread” message on all of them
Yes they did. All I see now are this one and a bailout thread. Even most of the sidebar is gone. Yikes!
Deadmaneating.com will have it soon.
Yet another sickening story. I suppose Sr. Prejean and others are weeping for this poor man.
Only the second execution under Gov Crist? Were they on hold until the Supreme Court decision? I thought FL got rid of their death row inmates more quickly. Not fast enough though.
“Article database had a major malfunction, working on restoring it. — John”
I’ve had that trouble too. I get: Error...then it says No such thread.
yep, thought it was just me.
