Abernathy (8-1 ), fresh off a tournamcntchampionship, had a lready deposited its ninth win Tuesday, leading 45-30 midway through the third against Dim­milt .

midcourt and ca ll ed a :30 timeout at :04. 2. Abernathy got the ball in but cou ld not control it well enough for a clean shot. J ames McKinnon scrambled to grab fhe loose ball and made a desperate shot that sailed over the backboard as time expired.

Abernat hy s t a rted th e frame, leading 52-46. Dimmitt twice caught the Lopes- 55-55 and 57-57. With a 3-pointer, Dimmitt went up 60-57 and never trailed again.

THE ABERNATHY WEEKLY REVIEW. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 14.200 1 PAGE 3

Texas death row inmates still face 'the chair~ By MIKE COX Texas Press Association

LIVINGSTON - Even where death follows a mandated schedule, there is beauty.

Well-tended rose bushes line the sidewalk leading from the entrance of the Texa~ Department of Criminal Justice's Polunsky Unit to the first internal picket, as prison system employees and inmates call security control points. Two flowerbeds, one bordered by a five-point star and the other in the shape of Texas, decorate the grassy yard between the prison's two outer fences and its interior buildings.

Trusties - low-risk prisoners with good records - cu ltivate the n owers. Though still convicted, criminals. the trusties who handle the gardeni ng and other jobs are model c itizens compared to the 449 men occupying 60-square-foot single-per­son ce lls in Building 12; better known as Death Row.

Beyond the landscaping, a visitor find s uninte nded irony: "Do the Right Thing" reads a large sign at the entrance to the admi nistrative area of the prison. At the entrance to Death Row, the last' stop before lethal injec­tion for those convicted of notal ways doing the ri ght thing, is another sign full of nuance: "Think Safety."

Safety always has been a consid-,

eration at TDCJ , but· three years ago an inmate named Martin Gurule made priso.n officials even more safe­ty conscious.

On Thanksgiving night in 1998, Guru le and six other Death Row inmates made it out of their cells in an escape attempt Gurule succeeded

' in getting over two fences and off the unit, tne first condemned man 10 do that in Texas in 64 years.

While his freedom was short­lived- he drowned shortly after escaping-a, week went by before searchers found his body. The man­hunt got national media attention.

The Gurule incident was the cata­lyst for a sweeping series of securi ty changes at TDCJ only recently com­pleted. The first change was the agency 's decision to move_ Death Row from the Ellis Unit, where it had been since 1%5, to a newer facility on a 472-acre site five miles east of Livingston in Polk County.

Opened in the fall of 1993, the Polunsky Unit can accommodate 2,900 prisoners. As of la te November, it he ld 2,779 inmates, including the men on Death Row.

When the decision was made to move Death Row, an area of the unit containing s ix pods--A through F­was retrofitted to accommodate the higher level of security necessary for condemned prisoner.;. Each pod has 84 cells. Prisoners facing execution

were transferred to the new unit in are housed . June 1999. Housing death row inmates costs

This year, $ l ,380,028 has been the state $53.15 per day, per inmate, spent on Death Row security according to TDCJ spokesman Larry upgrades mnging from enclosure of Todd. visitation booths to installation of A typical day on death row starts security covers over light ftxtures. early.

Prisoners are handcuffed and their legs shackled. And everything they do, they do individually.

Other than yclltng between cells. no contact is allowed between inmates.

" Inmates with execution dates are kept under higher scnttiny." prison spokesman Larry Fitzgera ld explained. 'The corrc.:tions officers ,keep a lug nf the ir ac ti vities. Starting 96 hours out (from ·their execution) they an: checked every 15 minutes."

Currently. six inmates are in Pod A with pending execution dates. The next inmate sch!'dulcd 10 die is Vincent Cooks, 37, who wa~ convict­ed in Dallas County. His date is !Acoc. 12 , but he has had seven dates al=dy.

ill!l'd£.LIMENTING AN E MPLOYEE As we recogn ize that conflicts between citizens nnd agency employees can arise, we also

realize that there are times when employees go above and beyond the1 r call for duty. Law Enforcement employees , like everyone e lse, appreciate it when their good deeds are noticed ..

'Too often they are remembered for lhb t raffic tickets they issue or the arrests they have ~o ' ma ke and not fo r the thousands ofhelping 'hands they extend. '

If an officer of the Abernathy Pollee Department provides services that you feel t hey snould be commended fo1·, please write the Chief a letter or note to t hat effect, g ivmg your feeling on what the officer has dqne that deseJ'Ves commendation, The Chief will see that it gets to the e mployee and that a copy is placed 111 the employee's personnel fil e . This boosts their morale and encourages them to be more posipve about themselves and t he service they provide. We are proud of the good relatwnship we share with the' community.

Our m•ssion is to prov1de a safe commumty ,where' citizens can live, work and raise their families without the fear of crime. We will seek out and prosecute those who disobey the laws of our land We choose to do this with mtegrity, dignity, courage, courtesy, fairness and compassion. ·
