On the recordFebruary 3, 1998
Karla Faye Tucker, who is scheduled to be executed tonight, has asked for clemency. This is the same Karla Faye Tucker who brutally murdered two helpless victims with a pick ax, no less. At that trial, Karla Faye testified, and I quote, that she ``enjoyed every single killing stroke'' and that she knowingly did not pay any attention to the screams and pleas of her dying victims. But now, Karla Faye has found the Lord and she begs for mercy. Beam me up, Mr. Speaker. Who now speaks for the innocent victims of Karla Faye Tucker? I say good night, sweet princess. Karla Faye Tucker has deserved the death penalty. She earned it with every single enjoyable killing stroke on those helpless victims. Think about it. An America that tolerates and coddles murderers will continue to have them.
