Kimberly McCarthy mugshot

To all the race hustlers out there: We’re not putting Kimberly McCarthy to death because she’s black; we’re putting her to death because she’s guilty.

Thug: Kimberly Lagayle McCarthy (36 at time of offense)
Date of Execution: January 29, 2013, sometime shortly after 6:00 pm HTT
Date of Crime: July 21, 1997
Victim(s): Dorothy Booth, 71
Last Meal: Same **** salad being fed to every other thug on the row that day
Final Words: TBD

It’s been 15 years since Kimberly McCarthy brutally murdered her 71-year old neighbor. Tomorrow evening she will finally pay for that crime with her life.

The 2013 Execution season in Texas is off to a slow start, but ti does finally get started tomorrow evening with the rare execution of a female killer. It’s not that female killers are rare, it’s just rare when they are executed. Of the 290 inmates currently sitting on Death Row in Texas, only 10 of ‘em are women.

Of those 10 women, Erica Yvonne Sheppard has been on the row the longest (April 1995), while Kimberly Cargill, who was received in June 2012, is the newest addition.

McCarthy will be only the 4th woman executed by the state of Texas since the Supreme Court lifted the ban on capital punishment in 1976, to include Karla Faye Tucker (1998), Betty Lou Beets (2000), and Frances Newton (2005).
Facts of the Crime

In 1997, McCarthy entered the home of Booth stating she wanted to borrow some sugar, and then stabbed the victim five times. At some point during the assault, she hit Booth in the face with a candelabrum, and then cut off Booth’s left finger to take her diamond wedding ring.

Later, McCarthy left with Booth’s purse and Mercedes-Benz and drove to a crack house where she attempted to buy crack cocaine. It was also revealed that McCarthy “pawned Booth’s wedding ring for $200, and used the victim’s credit card at least four times on the day after the murder, ”according to a fifth circuit court document (Section No. 11-70019).
Prior Criminal History

(Via the office of the Attorney General of Texas) In addition to Booth’s murder, McCarthy had also murdered two other elderly women. The first, Maggie Harding, was an 82-year-old longtime friend of McCarthy’s family, who had helped organize McCarthy’s wedding and had let McCarthy store excess furniture at her house. Harding was stabbed several times in the face, chest and abdomen, including one wound piercing her heart. She also suffered “dramatic” injuries to her face, including a broken jaw, crushed cheek bone, and bleeding on the brain. These wounds were consistent with being caused by a meat tenderizer found in the kitchen sink. Harding’s purse was missing from her home.

The second of McCarthy’s elderly victims was 85-year-old, physically disabled Jettie Lucas, a “distant cousin” of McCarthy’s mother. Lucas was stabbed in the face, including wounds piercing her eyes. She also suffered blunt force trauma to her head and neck, including strikes which tore one of her ears, fractured her skull, and caused bleeding on the brain. These injuries were consistent with a claw hammer found near Lucas’s body. The contents of Lucas’s purse and wallet were missing.

Think about the type of evil that must live in s person, which would enable them to attack and brutally murder the weakest among us.

Kimberly McCarthy is a dangerous, rabid animal. And, like any other dangerous rabid animal, needs to be put down. For her own sake as well as the sake of all others.

Before and above all I don't condone what's happened or approve it. I'm just wondering.


Was she ever mentaly checked? Was she stable? What were the motives, crack cocaine?

Did they arrest the people she bought the drugs from?

To stop the weed from growing we must first take out the roots.

If more people took charge of their kids and worked hard instead of only caring for themselves this would be less of an issue.

Take a stand and do your part. You see something wrong in your household fix it. Stop blaming others.


Stuff like this irks me.

does all that really matter? she killed 3 senior citizens in cold blood, for money...

I think her mental stability matters. What if she was a less than average person. Think about it. Yes she killed for money but was she a drug addict for reasons other than want? Some addicts choose to be others are driven to it. Yes some do have a gun pointed at their head. So yes it does matter. We kill from our fear Of what we can't understand. Fear is what does it. That's why I asked about her mental health. If she was sane I would have gave her life. Death is to easy too nice.

sorry, thats to liberal of a view for me... whether she's retarded or not, she knew killing people was wrong, and not only that, she targeted the weak for her killing spree. good riddance to her and all the ilk like her...

So am I right in assuming that killing is the way to go? Murder is murder no matter who does it. Let it be this lady or the justice system. I don't know about you but I don't approve murder in any fashion.

maybe you can pay for her to sit out the rest of her miserable life in prison... it's not cheap, ya know... and tell that to the families of her victims, kids and grandkids that are now without their family member, because of a twisted person that only cares about herself... are drugs are more important than a life? shes getting whats coming to her...

No sustaining a prisioner in prison aint cheap but neither is my tax money that goes to a cop "patrolling" while texting. I'm sad for the family but honestly it just shows how we as a society are preffering to throw things under the rug.

i don't really think the families of the victims are thinking is was "thrown under the rug"

You know what I like talking to you. You make good valid points. So I bow. Family first. Can never beat family.

have a beer on me

:cheers:

you should be happy, they didn't do it... she got an 11th hour reprieve...

How did THAT come to be? And you already know me from our little debate.

Undeserved. She's already had a retrial.

I don't think "Mental Illness" is an EXCUSE to let cold blooded KILLERS off !
KILL and be killed !
{Depending on circumstances of course}
Our country is WAY to relaxed on hardened CRIMINALS !
And negligent in mental health as well !
I think we NEED to make real examples of moms who kill their kids and those who kill the weak or old...
"MENTAL" is just a cop out in most cases in my humble opinion...
But then again a system that does not instill real JUSTICE for victims is as well
Further more i think "MENTAL" folks should not be allowed to mingle and live among the normal public in society either...
