This is an outrage! How dare the State of Tennessee do this?! How dare they permit this evil murderer to live so long? This man should have been executed immediately after proven guilty. Period. The State of Tennessee, especially the judges and officials who created this travesty are accomplices in the murder of Tracy Crozier. And they will face the wrath of G-d for what they have done. You see, murder is like a coin; it has two sides: Side 1 - the victim is dead, Side 2 the murderer is not, and lives on to gloat about it. This is an obscene injustice and that is why the Torah commands that a proven murderer must be put to death! May Tracy’s family know that they are in our prayers. We bless them and honor her memory.

1991 this happened? and he’s just being executed NOW??? 28 years is too long

There are men on Death Row here in California that were sentenced in 1982 and they're no closer to an execution date today then when they arrived. It's beyond a travesty.

I wonder what his lack of eyesight has to do with it. He is a murderer.

Seems obvious he could see what he was doing to throw gasoline into her car and strike a match.

Lee Hall became #1511 to be executed in the USA since 1976.

And they did it on a Thursday?
Could’a waited one more day to do it on a “FRY” day.

[Dr. Sivana]

A witness to the execution said that Hall's final words were that "people need to learn forgiveness and love and make the world a better place..."

No way to know about the forgiveness and love part, but the use of the electric chair made the world a better place.

The crime happened 28 years ago (2019-1991). This guy has been in prison for all that time, getting 3 hots and a cot every day of those 28 years.

It would be interesting if someone could calculate the approximate cost to taxpayers for that care. Bet it’s in the hundreds of thousands, prolly more.

RIP Lee.

Don’t forget his medical care, dental care!!!

[ar10]

He wouldn’t have gone blind if they had executed him sooner.

[Rockingham]

Ah, a clip from the end of The Thing.” In real life, Florida had to adopt lethal injection when a minor change in material resulted in a botched execution that was less than instantaneous, with flames and smoke shooting from under the metal cap that served as an electrode on the head of the prisoner.

Pretty lady. RIP.

Good the perp is gone and can’t hurt anybody else.

Dude was being marched out of his cell to make his appointment with ‘Old Sparky’ and his fellow death row inmates were bidding him farewell....

The usual, bye, take care etc were offset by one con who yelled out...

More power to Ya Dude!!!

Was he blinded by the flash fire that killed her?

[Joe Bfstplk]

A excellent lawyer...his client still got
the chair but he got the voltage reduced.

[o-n-money]

He got to kill a watt or 2.

[BradyLS]

He had some guts in choosing electrocution. But his victim suffered far more.
