McFadden, who nicknamed himself “Animal,” made no final statement. He was pronounced dead at 6:16 p.m., eight minutes af ter the flow of lethal drugs began. One of the needles in McFad- den’s right arm was placed just above a large tattoo of a Satanic face. The mother of victim Suzanne Denise Harrison burst into tears as she entered the death cham ber, crying out, “He looked at me.’’ Then she turned away and said, “He took our children.’’ The victim’s brother, Craig Harrison, got as close to the win dow as he could to see McFadden gasp and sputter twice. Then he remarked, “He’s gutless,’’ and called him an obscenity. Immediately after McFadden stopped breathing, Harrison said, “It’s done. I’m ready to go home.” The discovery of the three vie-, tims from Hawkins, in Wood County about 100 miles east of Dallas, and subsequent arrest of McFadden, on parole after three rape convictions, made the for mer telephone cable installer one of the region’s most notorious criminals. The burly, long-haired, tattoo- covered McFadden enhanced the reputation when he broke out of the Upshur County Jail before his capital murder trial. He took a female jailer hostage and for three days evaded one of the most intense manhunts in Texas history. A dragnet involved some 1,200 officers before McFad- WICHITA FALLS(AP) — A man suspected in a string of child molestations in East Texas and San Antonio has been cap tured at a motel in Wichita Falls.
