Convicted double-killer Terry Edwards was executed by the state of
Texas tonight for his part in the slaying of two employees at a Subway sandwich
shop in 2002. Edwards had formerly worked at the Dallas restaurant, but was
fired for stealing money from the cash register. A few weeks later, the
disgruntled Edwards returned to the Subway with his cousin to rob the place.
During the course of that robbery, the two employees on duty were both shot in
the head and killed.
After he was arrested, Edwards first tried to blame the murders on a
mysterious man named “T-bone.” But audio recordings from the time of the arrest
tell a different story, as Edwards is heard remarking, “Man, I done fucked up
this time. Man, I fucked up big time. Got two mother fucking murders.”
Because Texas no longer offers special last meals, Edwards ate the same
food as others in his unit today. For his last meal, Edwards had Salisbury
steak, macaroni and cheese, mixed vegetables, mixed greens, pinto beans, corn
bread, and sliced bread, with a choice of water, tea, or punch to drink.
