Really: http://www.cnn.com/2005/LAW/10/25/williams.execution.ap/index.html
Firstly, I'm not in favor of the death penalty anyway, I think rotting in prison is a far worse punishment. Regardless, I really feel bad about this case (surprisingly so, as I am generally fairly free of pity for a murderer four times over). He's been in jail a long time, and I think he should stay there for what he's done, but at the same time he really seems to have tried to make amends...not that you ever really can.
I don't want him set free necessarily, but I just feel bad that it has to be this way. No, I don't really have a point here, except to say I hope that this serves as some sort of an example to kids thinking of joining gangs. I'm sure Williams wishes his life could have gone in a different direction. Such a waste.
