Death row inmate requests fried chicken for last meal | News

CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story erroneously referred to convicted murderer Daniel Greene as a former University of Georgia football player. Greene played high school football in Taylor Co., Georgia, but did not play for the University of Georgia. 11Alive News regrets the error.

FORSYTH, Ga. -- Death row inmate Daniel Greene has requested fried chicken, french fries, a strawberry sundae and soda for his last meal.

The death row inmate faces execution Thursday for a 1991 crime spree that left a 19 year old dead and three others hurt. Greene killed the teen when he came to the aid of a store clerk Greene had stabbed and robbed.

Greene is scheduled to receive a lethal injection at 7 p.m. at the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Prison in Jackson.

He had been a high school football star in Taylor County. He had to be tried in Clayton County in 1992 because of pretrial publicity.
