Tracy Beatty’s Final Words Before Execution
The state executed Tracy Beatty Wednesday night for the 2003 murder of her mother in east Texas.
Beatty, 61, has been found guilty of fatally strangling Carolyn Click at the end of a violent and tumultuous relationship. Although his lawyers admit Beatty killed his mother, they argued that the crime did not carry the death penalty.
Beatty was injected with lethal drugs at 6:22 p.m. Wednesday on Huntsville State Drive and was pronounced dead 17 minutes later, according to the Texas Department of Justice.
To be sentenced to death in Texas, a person must be convicted not only of murder but also of capital murder. This specific legal subset includes killing a police officer or a small child, killing multiple people, or killing another person in the commission of another crime, such as robbery or rape.
“Yeah, I just want to say thank you… I don’t want to leave you, baby, I’ll see you when you get there.” I love you. Thanks to all my brothers in the unit for all the encouragement you gave me. They gave me. He helped me make a living Sunny Blue love you brothers see you on the other side.” Beatty said in his closing statement.
Although Beatty gave multiple versions of what happened when his 62-year-old mother died, according to court records, he eventually told police he came home drunk, the couple said they started arguing and he choked her. He said he didn’t realize Click was dead until the next day.
But Beatty was found guilty of capital murder because prosecutors argued he killed his mother during a robbery and burgled without her consent, even though he was living with Click at the time.
A neighbor testified that on the day he last saw her, Click told her he had told his son that day to move out after an argument.
