04 June 2009 :

Terry Lee Hankins was executed for the slayings of his 2 stepchildren.
The lethal injection was the 200th during the tenure of Gov. Rick Perry, a milestone denounced by capital punishment opponents.
Death penalty opponents planned protests to mark the 200th execution during Perry's administration. About 3 dozen people gathered near the prison, about double the usual number. Hankins, 34, white, surrendered on Aug. 26, 2001 after a 5-hour standoff with police who wanted him for gunning down his estranged wife, Tammy, 34, and her children, Devin Galley, 12, and Ashley Mason, 11. Hankins then told officers he'd also killed his father, Earnie Lee Hankins, 55, and half-sister Pearl "Sissy" Stevenstar, 20.
Hankins was the 16th condemned prisoner executed this year in Texas. Hankins' execution was 439th since Texas resumed carrying out capital punishment in 1982.
Hankins becomes the 30th condemned individual to be put to death this year in the USA and the 1166th overall since the nation resumed executions on January 17, 1977.
