Inmate confesses to killings before execution

A DEATH row inmate confessed to more than a dozen killings just before he was executed for killing a grocery store owner in 1993.

After he was strapped into the death chamber in Huntsville, Texas, Billy Frank Vickers, 58, admitted for the first time that he shot Phillip Kinslow during a botched robbery in 1993.

"It was nothing personal, I was just trying to make a living," Vickers said.
