Following his execution, the couple’s son blasted the state and said that 20 years was “too long for justice to be served.”
A man who murdered an elderly couple after breaking into their home was executed by the state of Oklahoma on Thursday. Scott Eizember, 62, was stalking a woman across the street from the residence at the time of the killings, prosecutors said. He was ultimately pronounced dead at 10:15 a.m. after giving a final statement, which included the assertions, “I’m at peace. My conscience is clear, completely.” Prosecutors said that after Patsy and A.J. Cantrell came home unexpectedly on Oct.
He then crossed the street and shot the woman’s teenage son and attacked her mother. Both survived. Eizember then took off in a stolen vehicle, igniting one of the largest manhunts in Oklahoma’s history. Eizember was finally caught after 37 days on the run. He filed an eleventh-hour lawsuit earlier this week seeking to have his spiritual adviser, the Rev. Jeffrey Hood, in the execution chamber with him as he received the lethal injection.

Ukraine has requested that the U.S. provide the Patriot surface-to-air guided missile defense system for months because it can target aircraft, cruise missiles and shorter-range ballistic missiles. During his late December visit to the U.S., Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the battery would make a significant difference in bolstering Kyiv's defenses against Russia's invasion.
