Twenty-four hours from now, I'm slated to be executed. I guess that’s the way it has to be to make them happy. I’m guilty, okay. There you have it, my big confession. I haven’t always been a good person. I’ve made mistakes, done bad things, and made wrong decisions. I wasn’t a good daughter. I was a terrible sister and the worst possible wife. I’ve betrayed all of the people who trusted me. I’ve deceived my friends, my family, and my coworkers. But what I did to get here, now that’s a different story. I broke the law and am guilty of doing a lot of dumb things, shady things even. But if you knew anything about me, you’d know that everything I did that got me here, I did for a righteous reason. I did it for her.
 
So if you've got a little time, why don’t you sit back and let me tell you a story. Let me tell you how a nice naive girl from Bakersfield, California ended up in a crazy little place like this.
