00:00Today, by the order of the Supreme Court, the Tennessee Department of Correction carried out the death sentence of Anthony
00:05Hines by means of lethal injection at the Riverbend Maximum Security Institution.
00:10Inmate Hines was pronounced dead at 10.43 a.m. and his last words were, tell my son hello.
00:17This concludes my statement.
00:19I've got a few words to say. For those of you that may be concerned as to whether or not
00:27this animal suffered, let me tell you what he did to my mother 41 years ago.
00:36He attacked her. The only means of defense she had was a plastic spray bottle.
00:43He superficially cut her, tortured her.
00:47He stabbed her 13 times, one of which went all the way through and came out her back.
00:53My family would like to thank the investigators, prosecutors, the district attorney's office, and everyone who worked tirelessly to bring
01:02accountability for the murder of my mother, Catherine.
01:07Jean Jenkins.
01:09For four decades, our family has endured the unimaginable pain and grief of her death.
01:15There is a deep void that will never be filled, a lifetime of memories.
01:20We were denied because she was taken from us.
