Unit 1012 will
remember Lillian Montgomery who was murdered by James Hubbard on January 10,
1977. Hubbard was executed in Alabama on August 5, 2004. James Hubbard had
earlier served a prison sentence for murder before he was paroled to kill
Lillian. Let us hear from Lillian’s son, Jimmy Montgomery:
"I tell you what, I would have liked to have seen the electric chair in use today, or maybe even a firing squad," said Jimmy Montgomery, the 66-year-old son of Lillian Montgomery. "He looked like he died too peacefully to me. I would have liked to have seen him suffer a little more, the way mama did. That would have given me a bit more satisfaction. But I am glad to see this part of our life end.”"It took a while for this to happen -- 26 years, but I never did give up," Jimmy Montgomery said. "I'm glad the state came through for our family. There's no way I wanted to walk the streets of Tuscaloosa and see him walk by me. He can't hurt anyone else now.”
