The last words of hundreds of death row inmates have been revealed for the first time.

Execution chamber

Texas has more than 300 Death Row inmates and has executed 18 people this year.

Authorities in Texas, where more people have been executed than in any other US state, have published the last statements of everyone put to death since 1982.

The most recent of the 441 final statements is that of Christopher Coleman, who was killed by lethal injection last week.

The 38-year-old, who was convicted of killing three men during a drug deal, simply said: “Yes. Ain’t no way fo’ fo’, I love all y’all.”

The one prior to that was of Stephen Moody which stated “Yes sir, to Joseph’s mom and son. I was unable to respond to you in the courtroom. I can only ask that you have the peace that I do. To my brother, you are a good brother. You’re the best. And I love you. Can’t beat ya. The beautiful lady standing next to you. Kathy you are next to my heart. Amber I love you. Warden, pull the trigger. I love you brother never forget it. Ronnie, Linda, Amber, Kathy. Chaplain Hart you’re the best. Love you Thomas.”
