A directory of last words by death row inmates

That's hard core, and it seems that Texas is the only one which publishes them - the AP had to FOIA to get ones from Georgia https://interactives.ap.org/last-words/ (although I originally thought it was dead because the WABE link didn't have the trailing slash and since it's a GODDAMN SPA the Wayback didn't archive the one magic URL required to make it work https://interactives.ap.org/last-words/data/victims.js )

Also, the previous submission from 2023 has a healthy bit of commentary: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34315969 (Jan 9, 2023; 271 comments)

I read the first six or seven. I found them pretty powerful, even the admitted guilty ones. I'll read more. Thank you for posting.

BTW, great book: "The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row" Mr. Hinton was released after 28 yrs.

Strange how so many of them are listed as "Labourers" even the women
