I can understand those who have a sincere, conscience-driven or religious objection to the death penalty. But they are wrong, for there is no moral justification for allowing rabid animals like this to continue breathing. Adios, dirt bag!

HUNTSVILLE -- Train-hopping serial killer Angel Maturino Resendiz, linked to at least 15 indiscriminate slayings near railroad tracks across the country, said he deserved what he was getting and asked for forgiveness before he was executed Tuesday night.

Resendiz, 46, mumbled a prayer, saying, "Lord, forgive me. Lord, forgive me" as he waited for the execution to proceed. His feet nervously moved under a white sheet partially covering him.

He acknowledged relatives watching through a nearby window and then turned and looked toward the victims' relatives in another room…

"I thank God for having patience for me. You did not deserve this. I deserve what I am getting."

He then said a prayer in Spanish. He was pronounced dead at 8:05 p.m.
