No more Okra!!!  lol.

HOUSTON -- Texas prison officials say they're stopping the practice of special last meals for inmates facing execution, after a state senator complained about an extensive request from a man involved in a notorious dragging death.

Sen. John Whitmire said Thursday he wanted the "ridiculous" and "inappropriate" practice ended or he'd seek a state statute banning it. Prisons director Brad Livingston agreed and said the practice was ending immediately. He said condemned inmates will get the same meal as other offenders.

did the murderer give his victim a last meal?  or did he just engage in rape, torture and murder without offering said victim the sandwich stulf of his/her choice?
