“Somebody needs to tell the governor the justice system doesn’t work,” he said. “He’s the last word and the last person to give justice where justice is needed. Too many innocent people are being killed.”

Smith suggested the governor “quit” and “get a backbone.”

He was administered a lethal injection of pentobarbital, a barbiturate, minutes later and was declared dead at 10:47 a.m.
