Executed killer Ramirez told warden 'I'm ready to go' after saying sorry to family

A killer told the family of a man he stabbed to death that he hopes his execution gives them “comfort” before telling the warden “I am ready to go” in his last words.

John Henry Ramirez was given a lethal injection at the Texas state's death chamber in Huntsville, after being sentenced to death for the fatal stabbing of Pablo Castro in Corpus Christi, in 2004.

Four of the victim’s children were listed as present at the execution as well as Ramirez’s wife Amanda.
