A Florida death row inmate used his last words to bash Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL).
Donald Dillbeck, 59, was executed via lethal injection on Thursday night. He had shot a deputy to death when he was just 15, for which he received a life sentence, then stabbed a woman to death after escaping. Dillbeck admitted wrongdoing in his last words but said DeSantis was worse than him.
In 1979, Dillbeck, while on the run for a carjacking offense, shot and killed Lee County Deputy Dwight Lynn Hall, 31, after a scuffle, for which he was arrested and sentenced to life in prison. In 1990, he escaped and fled to Tallahassee, where he stabbed Faye Lamb Vann to death during a carjacking.
