Susanna Reid travels to Texas, home of the most active death chamber in the United States, to meet the notorious Death Row inmate Billie Wayne Coble in the countdown to his scheduled execution. In 1989, Billie pled guilty to triple murder and has been languishing on Death Row ever since. Now 70 years old, Billie is fighting for a last-minute stay of execution … if it fails, he is set to become the oldest man put to death in Texas for over 100 years. Susanna is granted Billie’s final television interview in the eight-day run up to his death date. In this intense meeting, Susanna revisits the night of the crime in an attempt to find out why Billie Wayne committed these senseless murders. Delving into his family life, Susanna builds a picture of what kind of man Billie was back in 1989, and what kind of man he is now. Death is inevitable but what is it like knowing when, where and how you are going to die?

  1. It's obvious to me, & should be to others, that this man has some psychological issues. He killed three ppl, & he has no remorse. May they R.i.pšŸ‘šŸæ

  2. I don't disagree with the punishment of life without it's a lot more humane than the death penalty. Stop Texas from killing the veterans and the senior citizens of America because this man done wrong but he seems glad to die. So I say abolish the death penalty

  3. What a screwed up country we live in. All these inmates in our nation if were made to work and grow gardens of fruits and vegetable they could feed themselves and have enough left over to probably feed the entire poor population as well.

  4. Where is the interview??? 90 percent of this video is not even the interview! I hate deceptive titles from crooks all in the attempt to get clicks. Unsubscribe to this channel if we do this to all the channels will stop with the bs titles!

  5. I feel horrible for the son he didn't deserve that and its heartbreaking to see him break down, the part where he was crying saying he would tear down the walls to help his dad got me.

  6. I don't feel sorry for any of these inmates even less for death row executions of them. The only thing I disagree with is that the system allows for appeal after appeal year after year. The victims have to wait that long for justice and some die before the inmate gets hurled into eternity.

  8. So what is the condemed doing in those 10-12 or 35-40 minutes?, I support the death penalty but I just want to know what is going on during those time periods that the drug is in their bodies.

  9. There should be no "life sentence" criminals who are incarcerated should have the opportunity to get out and change, the ones that can't or who would typically get life should get put to death. Life in prison is no life

  10. I feel so sorry for ALL the victims, including the Cobles. His son and grandkids and their whole family will, in some way have to carry the burden of his actions throughout their lives. Will the community there understand this and understand that they have that burden plus the grief of losing, if not him, their idea of him? I hope so. It's beyond sad.

  11. Capital punishment is wrong.

    In the end all of his victims are still dead. The families are all still devastated and all the damage doesn't go away in any way.

    The only difference is that the state is now victimizing the family members of the guilty party in the same way that he had victimized other family members.

    The guilty party himself is no longer suffering. He got a get out of jail free card. No more pain for him ever. No more having to deal with the consequences of his actions.

    How is any of that justice?

  12. Prabhupāda: Manu-saṁhitā, yes. Viṣṇujana: "…the lawbook for mankind,Ā it is supported that a murderer should be condemned to death so that in his next life he will not have to suffer for the great sin he has committed.
