‘I feel my whole body burning,’ says Oklahoma death row inmate during execution Published January 10, 2014 Associated Press

A man has been executed by lethal injection at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary almost 20 years after orchestrating the brutal assault and robbery of his co-worker at a Tulsa convenience store.

Michael Lee Wilson, 38, was convicted in the killing of Richard Yost, 30, who aspired to one day manage the Quiktrip store. Wilson, who was convicted of first-degree murder, was the third person executed for the February 25, 1995, crime; the fourth defendant is serving a life term.

The burn you feel now is nothing compared to what you’re going to feel when you enter the gates of Hell.

The victim warned the police, the whole thing was caught on video with sound, the perps had the money in their pockets and they were convicted that same year.

Yet the first execution still took 14 years and the last almost 19. Our system is so screwed up.

'The repeated sounds of the baseball bat striking Mr Yost and Mr Yost's screams will never leave my mind,' Tulsa Assistant District Attorney James D. Dunn wrote to the parole board.

All the more reason I'm pleased to hear that murdering POS felt like he was burning. Burn... in ... HELL!

Everytime an anesthesiologist has put me under, the last thing I recall him/her saying was “You’ll feel a little burning”.

It really gets to me how few people understand that, unlike animals, the human soul is immortal. We are given once to die in the flesh and then eternal life. The “burning” question is...where?

Obama: “If you want your body to be burning for all eternity, you can KEEP your body burning for all eternity. Nobody’s gonna take that from you. Period.”

It really gets me how many on here believe there is actually an eternal burning in physical hell fire.

Very strange words coming from someone with your screen name.

“Remorseless POS.
So happy he could already feel his body burning.”

His POS body should have been burning for the 20 extra years of life he has enjoyed. Twenty undeserved years of life. Totally ridiculous. I want to say so much more.

Burning? Most evil people see demons dancing around their beds waiting to
take their souls to hell. Doctors and Nurses call it night fright and refuse
to say what really is happening.

Wilson was not describing his execution. He was describing the start of his descent into Hell.

Amen.

Given infinite options, any 'Creator' who'd implement such a scheme is unworthy of veneration.
