On Monday, the Supreme Court refused to block the upcoming execution of convicted sniper John Allen Muhammad, 48. The Court did not issue a statement on why it refused to consider his appeal.
Muhammad was declared dead at 9:11pm EST on Tuesday for his role as mastermind of a three-week spree of killings in October 2002 in Maryland, Virginia and Washington.
“There were no complications; Mr. Mohammad was asked if he wished to make a last statement,” Traylor told reporters outside the the Greenville Correctional Center. “He did not acknowledge this or make a last statement whatsoever.” [ read more ]
His teenage accomplice, Lee Boyd Malvo (who is now 24) is currently serving life in prison.
WOW….
wow……….justice has been served
Oh yeah first…this is so crazy. After all this time. I honestly don’t know what to say. I just remember when all of this was going down…then the last thing on our minds was that the dude was black. SMH. Such a shame that he took those lives…
7 years!!
so on 10/11 at 9:11 pm he was executed.1 month after 9/11 and 9 plus 1 is 10. Which brings us back to his execution date. is this a coincedence? He was a terrorist afterall.
GOOD, I Remember this, it was scary, people were getting shot and killed while filling up gas
he got what he deserved!!!!!!
now malvo needs to be next……(dont know how the hell he got a life sentence and not death)
So sad for his kids and the family that got killed.
SMH
Number 7. Maybe it was the fact that he was a brainwashed teenager at the time of the murders.
@ Lisa
He was under 18, so he got a life sentence since you can’t execute those who are not adults.
Oh well.
JUSTICE SERVE. THANK YOU.
I was in highschool in MD at the time the spree was going on. I remember everytime I’d see a white truck/van at a gas station I’d be terried. We all started looking at each other suspiciously.
correction *terrified not terried
THIS IS JUST SAD…….SAD FOR EVERY ONE THAT WAS A VICTIM AND SAD FOR THIS MAN WHO DID THIS TO THOSE PEOPLE AND ALSO SAD FOR THE YOUNG MAN THAT COMMITED THOSE CRIMES ALONG WITH HIM…..SO MANY LIVES WERE TAKING…….I GUESS THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN U DONT KNOW GOD! N I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT THE VICTIMS I AM TALKING ABOUT THE MURDERERS….WOW! EVERY NIGHT I PRAY FOR EVERY ONE ON THIS EARTH…..THIS IS SOOOO SAD
I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE IT HAS BEEN 7 YEARS ALREADY!
OH WELL…AN EYE FOR AN EYE RIGHT?
I was wondering if CL would post about this. At least no one has to worry about him ever again. When they shot that little kid that’s when I was shocked the most.
I can already see more movies being made about him in the future. Btw, why is Charles Manson still alive and hasn’t been executed yet?
@19 because California changed their laws from death penalty to life sentences. What I want to know is why did he get executed so fast? When you have people like John Wayne Gacy in jail for 14 years before he was executed and Aileen Wuornos in jail for 12 years before she was executed, dude is dead in a few years after being sentences with appeals still pending. By no means am I condoning anything his sick self did but I just found that interesting.
DAMN!! I REMEMBER BEIN IN HIGHSCHOOL IN MD WHEN ALLLL THIS WAS GOIN DOWN, EVERYONE WAS SOO SCARED TO LEAVE THEIR HOUSES, OR WHENEVER WE SAW A WHITE TRUCK WE WOULD GET SCARED…DMH. GLAD JUSTICE WAS SERVED. DAMN MALVO…YOU COULDA BEEN DOIN SOMETHIN WITH UR LIFE! SMH! THAT WAS HIS FAMILY MEMBER RIGHT?? OR NO?
@ Krist
Ohhh I see. Thanks.
Sorry… can’t bring myself to agree with the death penalty.
He felt he was innocent, he never learned his lesson.
i dont agree with the death penalty but i also remember being scared shitless when he shot someone at the gas station down the street from my high school…they couldnt wait to kill his ass…jus like others have said what about the other people still waiting who did shit in the 90′s!…oh the great american government…not
He got off easy. He deserved to be sniped by a firing squad and die the way his victims did. That was such an evil act. What is our world coming too?! I feel like I need to walk around with a gun on my waist 24/7!
@ 20. I think it may have to do with appeals. If they continue to appeal the cases then the longer it can take. Maybe they didn’t appeal the last ruling for the DC sniper and the other people still are.
@23..I’m kind of in the middle with the death penalty…
On one end I feel like taking another life is not going to bring back the lives of others, and I don’t feel that God would give someone the POWER to take another human’s life like that….and he forgave him, why can’t we on earth? I just feel like life punishment would be more sufficient than death…
And now he belongs to eternity….in hell….what a shame..there’s no turing back now…it’s done and over with for this crazy sucka
i don’t condone what he did at all, he deserved to die eventually, but i agree with some of the others. they sure did kill this BLACK man with the quickness, while sickos like charles manson are still alive, and they give all these damn white people years and years before they put their asses to death. But still justice was served
Damn ! they killed this nigga quick . He definitely deserved it and I have no sympathy for him. But they need to go and kill all those white child molesters and white serial killers and mass murderers that are sitting in jail just as quick as they killed Muhammad.
MIKKI you were NOT first because you never made a comment, you just said”first”. So better luck next time. Congrats Kelada.
I was saddened. It should have been a life sentence. They had no right to kill him. Eye for an eye is old testament and was thrown out in the new testament.
Killing him wont bring the people back. This was cruel punishment. And whoever administered the injections is a murderer i dont know how they sleep at night.
@23 Erm-I feel you. The death penalty seems like an easy out. He essentially got to leave this Earth in his sleep. That’s how most of us wish we could go. The people he gunned down had to suffer an excrutiatingly painful, and violent death. This type of punishment will never make sense to me. It’s like the saying says, “If we all took an eye for an eye, we’d all end up blind.”
@ #5 it’s November 11th…not October 11th. Not trying to be rude, but idk if you made a mistake when you posted your comment.
@ #5…MY BAD, I re read it, you switched it around…SORRY I get it now
@18 we dont have to worry about him but we have to worry about the other crazy’s in the world
@20 i said the same thing he was killed fast!!! U have murders on death row for 30 yrs and they still waiting. I think the death penalty is a easy getaway. They need to live everyday in jail remembering y they r there n the first place. Let them no that they will die there!!!! The death penalty lets them die easy without the thoughts… This is a sad lose lose situation for everyone.
Wow…….
—–One can almost predict coming onto a post like this and seeing comment after
—–comment of black women claiming that justice has been served, lol. The same
—–ones that will make every excuse in the world for white people. Very revealing.
—–This is why the stigma around black women persists, but anyway, the reason
—–why he was “executed” (sacrificed) at “9:11″ is because he was an MK-ULTRA
—–agent. He may have sniped some of the victims, but certainly not all. Whatever he
—–did do, he certainly was under programming. This is why they rushed to sacrifice
—–him on 11/10/09 at 9:11pm. The people who dispatched him on that “mission”
—–back in 2002 already knew that they were going to use him as the scapegoat for
—–all the killings and sacrifice him on this day. The elite and the upper echelons of
—–this society deal with numerology because they believe that certain events; when
—–orchestrated on certain dates, days, and times, or in conjunction with star or
—–planetary alignments will bring good fortune. There are eyewitnesses who stated
—–seeing men in fatigues doing the shootings in many of the killings attributed to
—–Muhammad. The point of the spree was to use it to cast aspersions on Islam and
—–to initialize propaganda against blacks in America that follow Islam.
That was fast. I just saw something on the news a couple days ago about his lawyers trying to appeal and before you know it he`s dead ! When it comes to blacks , the justice system is fast ! In the meantime it`s families out there who have been waiting for decades to see the white mass murderer who killed their loved one get executed !
Dang Judah…. You had something to get off your chest huh?
Anyway…i didn’t know anyone personally, but my heart was broken for those victims. And he killed a child! I don’t feel sorry for him for one second…
This was very quick! and actually kinda of early! dont they usually execute ppl around the midnight dot…also what was the rush! this man was sentenced 2 death(correct me if im wrong) less than a yr ago and he’s dead!!! wow, says a lot! but then they DOUCHE-BAGS like Scott Peterson who will remain in jail 4 the next 2 decades b4 he is executed, im not sure how I feel about this!
Personally I’m not 4 the death penalty I rather a mo%^kerF&^%er rot in jail and think about there crimes day after day while never seeing outside again…b4 getting the easier way out by being executed, but that just me!
Also…I disagree with it having anything to do with him being black. Timothy McVeigh (might be spelled wrong)…but the guy from the Oaklahoma City bombings was put to death I think even sooner than this and he was white…
According to reports he died peacefully and with no remorse for his actions. Is this punishment?
I totally agree that he deserved to pay for what he did; however, how is it he was excecuted so soon when we have others in the U.S. who have been sitting on death row for over 20 years. I do not understand how the system works.
@45 thats my point! I’m sitting here confused wondering Y and how???
@44 and thats the EXACT reason I’m not 4 the death penalty…LET THEM ROT!!!!
It should’ve went down a long time ago.
It’s funny that “Tyra is a Liar” would use the saying “an eye for an eye” to justify this, maybe you should know the whole quote.
“An eye for an eye would leave the whole world blind.” – Ghandi
How truly barbaric that the death penalty exists in a first world nation, I’m glad that most modern societies had the intelligence to eradicate it.
@48 if this was Facebook i would click the “Like” button 4 ur statement
I am not in favor of the death penalty but this man had no value of life. He killed 10 innocent people. How does you heart harden like that. I pray daily that God protects me and my family in our comings and goings. I remember after all this went down, they found a list of all the schools that were targets and my son’s school at the time was on that list and I lived in Baltimore County. You talk about getting on my knees thanking God.
Debating the morality of the death penalty can go on forever. All I know is that if he spent life in prison it would be more of a luxury than a punishment.
I don’t know what quick is, I mean this has been in litigation for 7 years now, that’s a minute. Also, you have to realize that he was being tried and executed in a state that would offer him the harshest punishment (VA), and that execution is for the murder of only one man killed, not all that died during his killing spree.
i’m against the death penalty
SMH…
—–An eye for an eye would leave the whole world blind.” – Ghandi
——I like that statement. Thanks @ 48
——@ Judah
——Please, let’s not make this a race issue.
@43
no honey even that bastard that wrecked havoc and destroyed live in my city back in 1995 got more time to rot this muhammed
lives*
@ 54… you’re asking the wrong one. When it comes to his comments its going to be a race, sex, creed, religion, color, national origin, & sexual orientation issue. Definitely not a Equal Opportunity commentor.
——@KAY
——His death had nothing to do with his being black. He was a sacrifice, as was Tim
——McVeigh. McVeigh was also MK-ULTRA, as was proven in the book “Codex
——Magica”. The real issue is that most people don’t grasp how this society is run.
——McVeigh, and these “white militia groups” are CIA sponsored, as was this man,
——Muhammad.
——@JAYE101
——How can you tell someone the “whole quote”, when you don’t know the “whole
——quote”. Gandhi certainly did not come up with that statement, or any other worth
——remembering. He worked for the British version of the CIA known as MI5, and he
——was a Theosophist, meaning a believer in the hermetic principles and an
——adherent to the teachings of Madame Blavatsky and Aleister Crowley. You can
——look that up. This is why the Hindu nationalists got smart and assassinated the
——man. He was a British asset, the same way MLK was an asset to the white man
——to teach hermetic principles to our people. Anyway, “eye for an eye” comes from
——the scriptures (Exodus 21:23,24). The reason why you do not have the “death
——penalty” in most “First World” countries is because the prison population is to
——be used as slave labor. Simple as that. It is what is known as the prison
——industrial complex. The hardcore laws against people who have been
——incarcerated, particularly for felonies, proves that the last thing the prison system
——is for is rehabilitation. It is based on the treatises of Adam Weishaupt.

—-I’ll make whatever issue I want out of what I please lol. Stay in your place. I’m not
—-one of these slave-minded n*ggers. I don’t know what race you are, nor do I care

—-dictate the parameters of the conversation. Nowhere did I attribute race to the
—-sacrifice of Muhammad, but if I did, it would be my prerogative.

—-Sis, did I hire you as my agent and I forgot lol? Please don’t speak for me.
I dont have to speak for you Judah… you do enough of that yourself.
