9. The Rule Changer (Lawrence Russell Brewer)
Brewer ruined a good thing. In Texas, a big proponent of the death penalty, there weren’t many rules related to last meal requests, and then Brewer came along. His last meal request was chicken fried steak (two with gravy and onions), a cheeseburger (actually a triple cheeseburger), an omelet made of beef and cheese (not sure what this even is), a pizza covered in meat, jalapeno peppers, barbeque meat (a pound), bread, fajitas and root beer (three to be exact). That wasn’t it, for dessert he requested ice cream with peanut butter fudge. His request was given; however, he didn’t eat any of it. From then on Texas refused to offer last meal requests.
