Stanley “Tookie” Williams

The plea for clemency has been denied by California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Stanley “Tookie” Williams is scheduled to be given a lethal injection shortly after midnight local time at San Quentin State Prison in California.

Stanley was a co-founder of the deadly street gang call Crips and was convicted of murdering four people in two 1979 holdups.

Hopefully there will be no riots in California.
