Michael Eugene Sharp #740; November 19, 1997


Yes, I do. I would like to tell the surviving victims here, society, my family and friends, that I ask that they forgive me for anything I have done. I beg for your forgiveness. I would like to ask the Lord Jesus Christ for forgiveness and say that in spite of my circumstances, I have been blessed by Him. My first thought is that Jesus Christ came down and separated the humans from God. I would like to see that wall that separates these groups here tonight brought down and that we would all have love and compassion for one another and that you all build a future for all of us. There are a lot of men on the Row who need to be remembered. I love all…

Tell my son I love him very much. God bless everybody. Continue to walk with God. Go Cowboys! Love ya'll man. Don't forget the T-ball. Ms. Mary, thank you for everything that you've done. You too, Brad, thank you. I can feel it, taste it, not bad.

Aaron Lee Fuller #964; November 6, 1997

I have no bitterness toward the system. I want the victim's family to know I'm guilty of what I have been convicted. I pray they will forgive me, not for my sake but for the sake of the spirits.

I have such a peace. Praise God, I'm going home

Jesus, the Lord, is everything to me. I am nothing without him. Praise Jesus. Praise God

Thank you for saving me.

That is about all I have to say.

Kenneth Ransom #772; October 28, 1997


First and foremost I would like to tell the victims’ families that I am sorry. I'm not sorry because I feel like I am guilty. I am sorry for the pain all of them have gone through during holidays and birthdays. They are without their loved ones.

I have said from the beginning and I will say it again that I am innocent. I did not kill no one. I feel like this is the Lord’s will that will be done. I feel like I'm the instrument in hopefully abolishing the death penalty forever

I love you all. You know it. Don’t cry.

Tell my brothers I love them. You all be strong.

Keith Thurmond #999435; March 7, 2012


All I want to say is I'm innocent, I didn't kill my wife. Jack Leary shot my wife then her dope dealer Guy Fernandez. Don't hold it against me, Bill. I swear to God I didn't kill her. Go ahead and finish it off. You can taste it.

Ricky Lee Green #984; October 8, 1997


I want to thank the Lord for giving me this opportunity to get to know Him. He has shown me a lot and He has changed me in the past two months.

I have been in prison 8½ years and on Death Row for 7, and I have not gotten into any trouble. I feel like I am not a threat to society anymore. I feel like my punishment is over, but my friends are now being punished.

I thank the Lord for all He has done for me. I do want to tell the family that I am sorry but killing me is not going to solve nothing.

I really do not believe that if Jesus were here tonight that he would execute me. Jesus is all about love.

I want to thank all of my friends for supporting me and for being here for me. Thank all of my friends on the row. Thank you Lord. I am finished.
