Texas executes Mexican citizen convicted of murder, his last words, 'Lord, send me a chariot'
A Mexican citizen on death row in Texas was executed Wednesday night after appeals from the United Nations and Mexican consulate and his last words were, "Lord, send me a chariot. I'm ready."
Robert Moreno Ramos, 64, was convicted for the 1992 deaths of his wife Leticia, 42, daughter Abigail, 7, and son Jonathan, 3, at their home in Progreso, Texas, which is located along the Mexico border. Authorities said Ramos bludgeoned his family members with a sledgehammer and then buried them underneath his home's bathroom floor so he could marry the woman he was having an extramarital affair with at the time.
