Texas Executes Richard Lee Tabler for 2004 Quadruple Homicide

Tabler, convicted of four murders in Killeen, Texas, expressed remorse in his final statement before receiving a lethal injection.

Richard Lee Tabler, 46, was executed by lethal injection in Texas for the 2004 murders of two men and two teenage girls in Killeen.
Tabler admitted to killing Mohamed-Amine Rahmouni and Haitham Zayed in an ambush over a dispute with Rahmouni, his former strip club manager.
He later confessed to killing two teenage dancers, Tiffany Dotson and Amanda Benefield, fearing they would expose his earlier crimes.
In his final statement, Tabler apologized to the victims' families, expressed remorse, and said he had found peace through faith.
Tabler's case drew attention for his 2008 death row phone threats to a state senator, which led to a statewide prison lockdown.
