Kevin Ray Underwood, 45, was executed by lethal injection in Oklahoma on Thursday for the 2006 murder of 10-year-old Jamie Rose Bolin. Underwood admitted to luring Bolin into his apartment, assaulting her, and killing her. He had previously expressed a cannibalistic fantasy.
Oklahoma man Kevin Ray Underwood was put to death by lethal injection on Thursday in the nation’s 25th and final execution of the year. Underwood was pronounced dead at 10:14 a.m. at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester, information provided by the Oklahoma Department of Corrections to Fox News Digital states. He killed a 10-year-old girl back in 2006 as part of a cannibalistic fantasy.
Underwood elected not to have a chaplain present in the execution room, according to the ODOC. He did opt for sedatives during the three-chemical protocol lethal injection that took place on his 45th birthday. Local TV station KOCO states witnesses said Underwood apologized for what he did and to the Bolin family. He also reportedly said it was 'needlessly cruel to my family' to execute him on his birthday and six days before Christmas.
