Double killer's new wife screams 'I love you!' as he is executed while professing his innocence

As a Texas execution unfolded, the new wife of a convicted double murderer cried out, “I love you,” while pressing against the glass separating her from her husband.

Tiana Krasniqi, a British law graduate, had entered into matrimony with death row inmate James Broadnax just weeks prior to his execution via lethal injection for a 2008 double murder during a robbery.

The couple’s relationship began through prison correspondence, and Krasniqi was heartbroken as Broadnax was executed, following the US Supreme Court’s refusal to halt the proceedings.

“I love you,” she shouted repeatedly, as 37-year-old Broadnax received the injection, maintaining his innocence in the killings up until his final moments.

Krasniqi, overwhelmed with grief, pressed herself against the window of the death chamber, arms outstretched, as her husband took his last breath, shaking his head one last time.

After 21 minutes, Broadnax was pronounced dead, leaving his widow so distraught that she required assistance to leave the prison premises.

“They killed my husband,” Krasniqi said in a TikTok after the execution.

“My husband suffered so bad from the lethal injection that he had a nose bleed and bruising on his neck. The families laughed as they watched. Is that justice?”

Krasniqi and Broadrax tied the knot in a Texas prison on April 14. The pair had forged a relationship writing letters back and forth over two years as Krasqui lived in London working toward a master’s degree in human rights law, the Dallas Morning News reported.

She had been holding out hope that he would not be executed.

Broadnax was condemned to death for the shooting deaths of two men in 2008 when he was 19 years old. Broadnax and his cousin, Demarius Commings, fatally shot and robbed Stephen Swan and Matthew Butler in the parking lot of Butler’s recording studio in suburban Dallas, prosecutors said.
