No, we're not talking about you Alito. We're looking at North Carolina inmate Kenneth Lee Boyd. Soon after Virigina Governor Mark Warner spared the life of Robin Lovitt, all eyes are slated at the next in line, who murdered his estranged wife and her father. So now that all the world is focused on the next Mr. 1000, what do you have to say to all the children in the world?
"I'd hate to be remembered as that," says the 57-year-old Boyd, "I don't like the idea of being picked as a number."
Who are you kidding? You're name will go down in Trivia Pursuit as the 1000th person executed. You're name will live on in quiz bowls, random factoids, Wikipedia, and other nonsense language. Boyd's attorney said he hoped the attention of the 1,000th execution would lead Easley to grant clemency. Sorry ... that luck out with Lovitt.
The public demands the next person in line.
