Your words could be his last ones
From Times Wire Reports
Death row inmate Patrick Knight is collecting jokes and says he will pick the funniest one for his last statement before his execution, set to be June 26, for fatally shooting his neighbors 16 years ago outside Amarillo.
“I’m not asking for money.... All I’m asking for is jokes,” said Knight, 39. He said he has had about 250 wisecracks mailed to him in prison or e-mailed to a friend who has a website for him.
“Lawyer jokes are real popular,” he said.
