Texas Cuts Costs

If you're planning on committing capital murder in Texas just so you can have a big old fancy last meal before your execution, you can just forget about it. Haute cuisine is coming to an end for those on death row.

Take the case of white supremacist Lawrence Brewer who was executed on Wednesday for the 1998 murder of a black man.

For his last meal Larry, ever the gourmand, requested a triple meat bacon cheeseburger, a meat lover's pizza, a big bowl of okra with lots of ketchup, a pound of barbecue, half a loaf of bread, peanut butter fudge, a pint of ice cream and two chicken fried steaks.

Wouldn't you know, when they brought it to him he said he wasn't hungry!

So from now on you murdering sons of bitches will get standard prison fare before they lethally inject you. We're not going to have you blow the state budget with your outrageous requests.
