“I have asked Jesus Christ to forgive me these cowardly
acts that I did back then and to give me a clean slate, and he
has.”
In 2004, Richard Tabler murdered his boss and an
associate in an execution-style shooting. While in prison, he
read the Bible daily, quoted from scripture, and wrote a regular
Christian brochure. Is finding religion a sign of rehabilitation,
or is it simply the final throw of the dice for people found
guilty of the most heinous crimes? In the final episode of this
series, documentary makers Ned Parker and Zoe Hines discuss

borrow his truck (and him) for a bit of a ride. I guess he
thought I was playing. He soon changed his tune when I pulled out
the revolver.”

with the owner still inside. He picked up his friends, and then

clearing and executing him. He claims that the situation just

truly believe that Death Row saved my life, as crazy as that
sounds.”
In 2004, Christopher Young stole a car at
gunpoint, before driving to a convenience store and murdering the
owner. While on death row, he reached out to youngsters, wrote
books, and tried to turn his life around. Should these factors be

die or are some people beyond rehabilitation? Documentary makers

put my hands on the wall and count each hit. If I missed a count,

“After 18 years of solitary confinement with death breathing down
my neck, some things don’t matter as much as they used to. I’ll
still be strapped to that gurney and have my body pumped full of
poison.”

locked in a cupboard, and drowned. Her body was found stuffed in
a barrel in a ditch four months later. Troy Clark was sent to
death row for the murder, but has always denied it. Is there any
