A remorseful death row inmate pleaded for forgiveness and mothed one final message before being put to death in Texas Thursday, 20 years after he killed his strip club manager and another man.
"I had no right to take your loved ones from you, and I ask and pray, hope and pray, that one day you find it in your hearts to forgive me for those actions," Tabler said strapped to the death chamber gurney, looking at relatives of his victims who watched through a window a few feet away. "No amount of my apologies will ever return them to you." Michael Dorgan is a writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business.

He told the victims’ family members that there wasn’t a day that went by in which he didn’t regret his actions and thanked prison officials for their compassion and show that he could "change and become a better man and rehabilitate."
