A Walton County man who shot and then savagely beat a 70-year-old man to death will be executed the night of Dec. 8, state authorities said Monday.

If the execution goes off as planned, Brian Keith Terrell, 47, would become the second inmate executed in Georgia in 19 days.

The state Department of Corrections announced the date Monday, saying a Superior Court judge had signed a death warrant for Terrell not long after the execution of Marcus Ray Johnson, who was killed by lethal injection on Nov. 19. Terrell killed John Watson, a man Terrell's mother had befriended and was helping with meals, errands and trips to dialysis treatment. Terrell had stolen a number of blank checks from Watson and cashed several, and the older man gave him an out: pay me back, and that'll be the end of it. Terrell chose a different path.

Well I see a larger portion of the picture than you do.

You think that execution will solve a problem but I know that it won't because more like incidents will continue to occur. Especially now that people are less fearful of dying than they used to be. Now, all that is really accomplished out of an execution is a blood thirsty thrill of retribution, which is understandable to a certain extent, but after the thrill nothing is accomplished but life as usual and more like incidents occurring.

So from my view of the picture, a thrill of retribution is the real waste of time and money, since it's understanding and forgiving that helps to reduce crime. Whereas, you see the man doing life in jail as a physical waste of time and resources, I see a possibility of the man changing his ways if he comes around to calming himself down and can actually be a mentor on the inside to youths to keep them out of jail for good when they're released.

In retribution, you take all possibilities for reform away and fuel crime to continue.

(CNN)After a five-hour delay, Georgia death row inmate Kelly Gissendaner was executed early Wednesday morning for her role in the killing of her husband.

Gissendaner was scheduled to die at 7 p.m. Tuesday, but her lawyers filed appeals to state and federal courts in her final hours to try to spare her life.

Her children had to make a heart-wrenching choice Tuesday: go see their mother one last time, or make a final appeal in front of the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles.

"We chose to try and save her life, and they still denied us," daughter Kayla Gissendaner said outside the state's execution facility in Jackson.

Even a recent letter on behalf of the Pope wasn't enough to sway the parole board.

So Gissendaner's legal team filed three appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court -- all of which were denied.

When Gissendaner finally walked to the execution chamber after midnight, she saw the witnesses through a window and began sobbing, witness Jeff Hullinger of WXIA-TV said.

She then made a final statement "apologizing to an amazing man that lost his life because of her," Hullinger said. Gissendaner was convicted of murder for persuading her lover to kill her husband in 1997.

She became Georgia's first female prisoner to be executed in 70 years.

As Gissendaner was being executed, the Gwinnett Daily Post reported, she sang "Amazing Grace."

Pope Francis weighed in
While waiting for an answer from the board, a representative for Pope Francis sent a letter saying that the Pope wanted the board to spare Gissendaner's life.

"While not wishing to minimize the gravity of the crime for which Ms. Gissendaner has been convicted, and while sympathizing with the victims, I nonetheless implore you, in consideration of the reasons that have been presented to your Board, to commute the sentence to one that would better express both justice and mercy," the letter read.

Color this Negro, very,very ,DEAD!

JACKSON, GA. — Brian Keith Terrell was put to death at 12:52 a.m. Wednesday for the 1992 murder of 70-year-old John Watson of Covington.

Terrell accepted a final prayer and refused to record a final statement, the Georgia Department of Corrections said in a release.

The U.S. Supreme Court denied Terrell’s final appeal shortly after 11 p.m. Tuesday, clearing the way for the death to proceed. But it took an hour for the nurse assigned to the execution to get IVs inserted into both of the condemned man’s arms. She eventually had to put one into Terrell’s right hand.

Terrell winced several times, apparently in pain. After all the witnesses were seated and a prayer was offered, Terrell raised his head and mouthed, “Didn’t do it,” to Newton County Sheriff Ezell Brown, who was sitting at the center of the front row.

Terrell’s execution marks the fifth lethal injection the state has carried out this year, more than any other year since the state first used lethal injection in 2001.

The 11th U.S. Court of Appeals declined his appeal Tuesday evening; the Georgia Supreme Court turned down his appeal Tuesday afternoon; the U.S. District Court did the same Tuesday morning; and the State Board of Pardons and Paroles denied clemency Monday night.

Unlike a number of condemned men who preceded him, Terrell, 47, did eat his last meal. But he had the same dinner served other inmates at the Diagnostic and Classification Prison near Jackson: chicken and rice, beans, rutabagas, turnip greens and cornbread.

As for visitors, only his pastor from Covington showed up Tuesday. His mother, who has insisted Terrell is innocent, was absent.

In 1992, Terrell stole John Watson’s checkbook and withdrew a total of $8,700 from the victim’s bank account.

Watson, a friend of Terrell’s mother, Barbara, told her he would not press charges against her son if a substantial amount of the stolen money was returned within two days. Instead, Terrell ambushed Watson as he left his Covington house for a dialysis appointment.

Terrell’s lawyers had pleaded for clemency because of their concerns about the pharmacist who made the lethal injection drug.

According to court filings, that pharmacist has a 50 percent error rate.

The pharmacist — whose identity is secret under state law — compounded the drugs used in six previous executions, including the pentobarbital that turned cloudy in early March, forcing the state to postpone scheduled executions. The Department of Corrections said it has addressed the problem. Kelly Gissendaner, who was the lone woman on Georgia’s death row, and another man have since been put to death.

Terrell’s lawyers argued in court filings that at the very least Georgia should use another pharmacist to make the drug.
