Christopher Coleman Executed

Texas executes a thug.

HUNTSVILLE, Texas -- A convicted hitman was executed Tuesday evening for a triple slaying in Houston nearly 14 years ago.

Christopher Coleman, 37, was condemned for his part in a scheme by a Colombian man who hoped to eliminate a drug debt by staging a robbery. Four people wound up getting shot in a car on a dead-end street. Three of them, including a 3-year-old boy, died.

"Ain't no way, fo fo," he said when asked by a warden if he had a final statement from the Texas death chamber gurney. "I love y'all."

It was unclear what "fo fo" meant, although in urban slang it can refer to a .44-caliber pistol or distinctive car rims made in 1984 and apparently popular in Houston. No relatives of the victims chose to attend the punishment and Coleman selected no personal witnesses to watch him die. SOURCE
