BirthFactDeath (-) Tuesday 24th of April 2007 17 years ago There Weren't Any Toothpicks
Murderer James J. Filiaggi is executed by lethal injection at the age of 42 in Ohio State Penitentiary, Columbus, Ohio, United States. Filiaggi's last meal request was for steak, potato and cheese pirogies, a baked potato, dinner rolls, fresh vegetables, strawberry cheesecake and milk. After the meal was delivered Filiaggi asked for extra sour cream. That request also was granted. He also asked for a toothpick but was told there weren't any. Later he asked for a soda, changed his mind and asked for a cup of iced water. Later he asked for a cup of coffee.
