Askari Abdullah Muhammad, 62, who was known as Thomas Knight when he killed his former employer and his wife in 1974, was pronounced dead at 6:45 p.m. EDT (2345 GMT) from a lethal injection, said Misty Cash, a spokeswoman for the Florida Department of Corrections.

Muhammad was sentenced to death for the 1974 murders of Sydney and Lillian Gans in Miami. Muhammad had previously worked for Gans at a paper bag company, and abducted him from a parking lot with a rifle, forcing Gans to drive home and get his wife before making them withdraw $50,000 from a bank. He shot the couple in the back of their heads and fled but was captured a short time later.

The Criminal Rights NutJobs are the ones who keep these capital felons on Death Row for years because of the endless appeals and protests

The victims families must have endured living hell waiting for so long to see justice

Nothing is more vile than Criminal Rights NutJobs who want to end capital punishment, and stall every execution

Hey, at least they did not name him Kamau, or Rhashan, or something really weird.

Thing is, that for some reason we have wimps when it comes to governors who shrink from doing the ‘dirty work’ that has to be done, the work that they are paid to do.

The wait to see 72 Helen Thomases for Mohammad was 39 years 11 months and 15 days to long.

McVeigh did not fight his execution to any credible degree. He welcomed it as a soldier. A deranged, baby killing soldier, but a soldier nevertheless.

YUP! It is called the “Lawyer Scam!”

[Seeing More Clearly Now]

This 1974 hate crime of a Miami couple took place just about the time that the Islamic propagandists started a campaign of infiltrating U.S. prisons and convincing the stupidest set of African Americans to become Muslim wannabees! This got the Islamic radical foot in the door of America’s cities. No one told these Black Christians about the fact that Muslims were and remain the buyers and sellers and traders of Black Africans! They blindly threw away Christianity to join the hate-mongering, violence-promoting religion of those who enslaved them and continue to buy and sell slaves in Africa. One can only shake one’s head in amazement at the blindness of the Blacks one sees dressed up in face coverings, head coverings, Muslim hats and robes, just like Muslim slave traders and giving their kids Muslim names. With every day they glorify those who made them slaves. Blacks who understood something about the world kept their distance from these hate-mongering charlatans who tried to convert them to the Nation of Islam. Does his chosen first name, “Askari” mean “I is scary”?

I see the name is said to mean “fighter.” The “religion of peace” at it again:

40 years? Sure takes Florida a long time to throw out the trash.
