17 Death Row Requests You Won't Believe Were Made

11. Ricky Ray Rector

Ricky Ray Rector killed a man in a nightclub, shot a police officer who was attempting to negotiate a surrender, then shot himself in the head in a suicide attempt. Rather than killing him, the shot effectively lobotomised Rector, and he was convicted of the murders. Shortly before his execution, Rector requested a steak, fried chicken, cherry Kool-Aid, and a pecan pie. He left the pecan pie, jokingly informing a guard that he was "saving it for later."
