Riley Dobi Noel, Executed In Arkansas

VARNER, Ark. (AP) ~

A man who killed three children in the mistaken belief
that their sister set up his brother for a gang hit was
executed Wednesday night after courts and the
governor rejected his pleas for mercy.

Riley Dobi Noel, 31, was pronounced dead by injection
at 9:07 p.m., prison spokeswoman Dina Tyler said.

In his final statement, Noel said: "I want my family to
know I love them. I want my kids to know I love Jesus."

Noel had wanted one more round of mental examinations
to prove that he had a brain disorder that would prevent
his execution. The U.S. Supreme Court and Gov. Mike
Huckabee turned Noel down Wednesday.

Jurors sentenced Noel to die after finding that he killed
the three children execution-style on June 4, 1995,
forcing them to lie on their kitchen floor before shooting
each once in the head.

According to prosecutors, Noel and others burst into a
southwest Little Rock home looking for Yashica Young,
whom Noel believed had set up his brother, Cornelius
"Skeeter" Ganaway. When he couldn't find her, he shot
Malak Hussain, 10; Mustafa Hussain, 12; and Marcell
Young, 17.

Kyle Jones of Miami, who had been Marcell Young's
fiance, was selected to be one of the victims' family
witnesses to watch the execution on closed-circuit
television.

"He chose to make the decision to take their lives,"
Jones said after the execution. "Today the state of Arkansas
chose to take his and I'm happy with it. I can move on
knowing I won't have to live with this again."

Were the victims black?
Is this a hate crime?

The victims were human. This was a crime. That's all.

All crime is hate.

Iraq is free. The leftists were on the wrong side of history....again.

Republicans think everyday is the Fourth of July.

Traz does this race-baiting thing all the time. It gets him hot. You
eventually learn to ignore it.
