Twelve hours from now,
convicted killer Frank Beechum...

:31:31
... will be executed
by lethal injection.

:31:34
He was convicted six years ago...
:31:36
... of the brutal slaying of 20-year-old
Amy Wilson and her unborn child...

:31:40
... at Pocum's Grocery in the
Richmond section of the county.

:31:44
Wilson, who was six months pregnant...
:31:46
... was working
when Beechum shot her...

:31:49
... during an argument over $96
she owed him and was unable to pay.

:31:55
Now the weather:
:31:57
Morning low clouds
with some afternoon clearing.

:32:33
Help you?
:32:35
Yeah, I'm a reporter
from the Oakland Tribune.

:32:37
Isn't this where
Amy Wilson was killed?

:32:40
It sure is.
:32:42
She was right behind
this same counter.

:32:45
Almost six years ago exactly.
:32:48
Mr. Pocum says...
:32:49
...the needle's too good for him.
:32:51
For Beechum.
:32:53
They ought to bring back the chair.
That's what I say.

:32:55
Really let him have
a jolt of something.

:32:58
What's back there?
