JARRATT, Va. (AP) — A 49-year-old convicted of murdering three people in Virginia and California nearly three decades ago was executed on Thursday after a series of last-minute appeals failed.
Alfredo Prieto was pronounced dead at 9:17 p.m. at the Greensville Correctional Center in Jarratt. Prieto was injected with a lethal three-drug combination, including the sedative pentobarbital, which Virginia received from the Texas prison system.
Prieto, wearing glasses, jeans and a light blue shirt, did not resist and showed no emotion as he was strapped to the gurney.
“I would like to say thanks to all my lawyers, all my supporters and all my family members,” he said, before mumbling, “Get this over with.”

He needed killin'
Witnesses said he wet himself as the life left his body, it was a fitting end for this POS.
With a taxpayer paid translator?
Good riddance. Cremate him and flush him down the toilet.
Feed him to the Buzzards
Thank God!!
Buh Bye!!
We all lose control of our bladders when we die, doofus.
Oh Texas knows how to get it done...they installed an express lane to the execution chamber!!! More states need to follow this example, get them off the tax payers bill!
Not exactly true 5:42. Urine is present in the bladder post death approx 1/3 of the time.
Don't even waste the money to burn him....just dumpster him and let nature have him....useless pos......
I feel sorrow only for the victims.
The system is wrong meaning we had to provide for him 30 years after conviction. How much did that cost us taxpayers?
We need to adopt the system like after Sodom Husein death sentence, one appeal, then you die!
Cool!!
An ounce of lead is cheaper. Only 1 appeal is necessary and make it quick.
