Welcome to

Chadwick Banks is set to die for the murder of his wife as well as the rape and murder of his ten year old step daughter at six pm tonight. As Mike Vasilinda tells us, the execution is a milestone for Governor Rick Scott.

Annette Black hasn’t slept well since the September day Rick Scott signed the death warrant for her daughter and granddaughters killer.

I’ve been ill for days now.” She told us. “This is not anything anybody wants to have to go through.”

Q: “No joy today for you?”

“No joy! No joy!”

22 years ago, Cassandra Banks was sleeping in her north Florida home when her husband shot her point blank. Chadwick Banks then raped his ten year old step daughter before also shooting her in the head. Annette never thought she would see this day come.

“And you never thought you’d see this day?”

“No.No I thought I’d be dead by now. My husband is 89. We thought we’d both be dead by now.”

Jeb Bush holds the record for executions by a modern Governor with 21. This will be Rick Scott’s 20th. He has four more years.

Scott says “I take it very seriously, but what I think about as I do it is I think about the victims.”

Annette calls the execution justice…we spoke her minutes before she left for the prison to witness her daughters killer die. “Well, I’m hoping that tonight I might get a chance to Cry. Because since this has happened, I haven’t been able to cry. It’s like something has killed my emotions.Maybe I’ll get a good nights sleep. I don’t know what will happen tonight after all this is over.

And with four more years as Governor, it’s almost certain  Rick Scott will be signing more black bordered death warrants.

Banks entered a no contest plea to the murders. No testimony ever indicated why he killed. The victims Grandmother believes it was because her daughter  discovered her husband fondling the step daughter a day before the murders.
