A Missouri inmate who's been in prison for more than two decades for killing two jailers was given his final meal Tuesday before he was executed.
He was convicted of the June 22, 2000, killings of Leon Egley and Jason Acton at the small Randolph County Jail. Bradford Betz is a Fox News Digital breaking reporter covering crime, political issues, and much more.
In his final statement, Tisius wrote that he was "holding tightly" to his faith, and lamented that he couldn’t have "made things right" while still alive.
"I really did try to become a better man. I really tried hard to give as much as I could to as many as I could," Tisius said. "I tried to forgive others as I wish to be forgiven. And I pray that God will forgive those who condemn me. Just as He forgave those who condemned Him. I am sorry. And not because I am at the end. But because I truly am sorry."
