If a dog can be put to sleep for attacking children, then so should all paedophiles! |
On this date, June 8, 2022, Frank Atwood was executed by lethal injection in the state of Arizona for the murder of 8-year-old Vicki Lynne Hoskinson in 1984. He does not deserve to live and I wished he should be hanged together with the Pakistani Paedophile, Sohail Ayaz.

Vicki Lynne Hoskinson (February 2, 1976 – September 1984) was an 8-year-old American murder victim who disappeared while riding her bicycle to mail a birthday card to her aunt in Tucson, Arizona. Her abductor, Frank Jarvis Atwood (January 29, 1956 – June 8, 2022), was traced through witness testimony and physical evidence (which the abductor alleged in a later appeal was planted on his car). Seven months later, Vicki's remains were found in a desert area 20 miles (32 km) away and Atwood was found guilty of first degree murder. He was sentenced to death and was executed by lethal injection on June 8, 2022.

FLORENCE, Ariz. — Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich announced the execution of Frank Atwood Wednesday morning. The execution reportedly took place at 10:16 a.m. at the Arizona State Prison Complex in Florence.
Despite multiple hearings and appeals, Frank Atwood went on as planned June 8.
Atwood, 65, declined to choose an execution method, instead defaulting to lethal injection.
Brnovich, a vocal proponent of capital punishment in the state, announced in January he would be fast-tracking the execution of Atwood and the May execution of Clarence Dixon, the state's first execution in eight years.
“To an innocent child whose life was brutally taken and a family that has had to endure decades of suffering, Arizonans will never forget,” Brnovich said in a press release. “Today, we remember Vicki Lynne and stand together with her loved ones and the Tucson community as their unwavering quest for justice is finally realized.”
WATCH: Officials speak after Atwood execution
What was Atwood convicted of?
Atwood was handed a death sentence for the kidnapping and killing of an 8-year-old Pima County girl in 1984. He had been in prison since his first-degree murder conviction in 1987.
Investigators said Atwood, a native of Los Angeles, committed child sex crimes in California before violating his parole and moving to Arizona.
Atwood kidnapped Vicki Hoskinson while she rode her bike around her neighborhood, according to police. Atwood then fled to Texas until he was arrested and brought back to Arizona in connection to her disappearance.
Vicki’s skeletal remains were discovered in the desert near Tucson months later.
What does this mean?
Atwood is the second death row inmate set to be executed in Arizona in less than a month. Clarence Dixon was executed at the same facility on May 11. He was convicted for the murder of a 21-year-old ASU student.
The scheduled executions of both inmates come after an 8-year hiatus on executions in the state.
Before May, the last time an execution was carried out in Arizona was in 2014. Joseph Wood was sentenced to die for killing his girlfriend and her father, but his execution was described as “botched” by his lawyers.
The purported 10-minute execution process lasted nearly two hours, and witnesses say Woods gasped for air before dying.
Wood’s death spurred a review of the state’s execution procedure and rallied opponents of capitol punishment.

Frank Atwood execution updates: AG Mark Brnovich releases statement on execution

Arizona's second execution so far this year took place on Wednesday morning.
Frank Jarvis Atwood, 66, was put to death for the 1984 kidnapping and murder of 8-year-old Vicki Lynne Hoskinson. His lethal injection comes less than a month after the May execution of Clarence Dixon — the state's first since 2014.
Atwood was the 39th person executed in Arizona since 1992.
Debbie Carlson, Vicki's mother, at Atwood's clemency hearing in May said his execution would bring final justice for her daughter and mark a new beginning for her family.
"We chose the death penalty because we never wanted another child to have to be faced by this monster," she said. "We wanted to make sure another family was spared and not have to live what we have lived for the last 37 1/2 years."
Follow coverage from Republic reporters of the execution here.
2:03 p.m.: AG Mark Brnovich releases statement on execution
Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich released a statement on the execution of Frank Atwood, saying Atwood was "sentenced to death nearly 35 years ago and exhausted all appellate remedies after lengthy and numerous post-conviction proceedings."
“To an innocent child whose life was brutally taken and a family that has had to endure decades of suffering, Arizonans will never forget,” Brnovich said. “Today, we remember Vicki Lynne and stand together with her loved ones and the Tucson community as their unwavering quest for justice is finally realized.”
According to Brnovich's statement, there are 111 inmates on Arizona's death row, and 22 have exhausted all appeals.

1 p.m.: Anti-death penalty advocates on potential upcoming executions
Deacon Bill Drobick, who stood with protesters all morning, said he heard from another protester that the execution had gone through.
“It kind of happened as expected,” he said. “What was different was the family members here on the other corner trying to bring public awareness to the victim.”
“The burning question is will this be the end or will it continue,” he said. “Last time, Atwood was mentioned in the same breath as Clarence Dixon, so we knew that was coming, that there would be one more and that it was a matter of time.”
He points out that no other names have been mentioned or execution warrants issued other than the media reporting that 20 people on death row have exhausted their appeals.
Rod McLeod, secretary of Death Penalty Alternatives for Arizona, noted that Deacon Drobick didn’t speak to the crowd like he did when Clarence Dixon was executed.
“They are not all the same to me and when it’s the terrible crime of a child killing — it seemed like there was more hostile remarks from people going by,” he said. “But it’s not going to go by without notice, it’s not routine, it’s not normal, that’s why we are out there.”
He’s not surprised, but he is disappointed.
“In the end, this only adds more pain and hurts more people,” he added.

11:05 a.m.: Vicki Lynne Hoskinson's family responds
Following the execution, Debbie Carlson, Vicki Lynne's mother, was among the witnesses who spoke during the media briefing.
“Today marks final justice for our daughter Vicki Lynne. Our family has waited 37 years, eight months and 22 days for this day to come,” Carlson said while choking back tears during the media briefing following the execution. “Vicki was a vibrant little girl with an infectious laugh and a smile that would melt your heart."
She expressed wishes for her daughter to rest easy. “Vicki, I want you to be free, little one. Rest easy, our precious little girl. May your spirit soar as it continues to live with us, in us and through us forever," she said.

10:55 a.m.: Atwood's priest in execution room, a first for the state
Approximately 40 people were present during Atwood’s execution — among them, Debbie Carlson, Vicki Lynne’s mother, and Rachel Atwood, Frank Atwood’s wife.
According to media witnesses, Atwood was brought into the execution room and they watched as he was strapped in. He remained calm throughout the process and witnesses said he smiled at his wife several times.
At no point did he acknowledge Vicki Lynne's family or apologize for the crimes he was sentenced to death for, witnesses said.
He was sedated at 10:10 a.m. and was pronounced dead at 10:16 a.m.
According to media witness Bud Foster, Atwood's priest was in the execution room with him — a first for the state. He added that this execution was "probably the most peaceful" he has witnessed.

Frank Atwood chose to make a final statement. According to Frank Strada, Arizona Department of Corrections director, this was his final statement:
"Thank you, precious father, for coming today and shepherding me into faith. I want to thank my beautiful wife who has loved me with everything she has. I want to thank my friends and legal team, and most of all, Jesus Christ through this unfair judicial process that led to my salvation. I pray the Lord will have mercy on all of us and that the Lord will have mercy on me.”

Friends and neighbors of Vicki Lynne have gathered outside the prison to talk and reminisce about the old neighborhood in Flowing Wells in an area of northern Tucson, and of course, to remember Vicki Lynne.
“I feel like it will be a part of a closure for my childhood,” said Stacy Davis, a childhood friend of Vicki Lynne.

10 a.m.: Protesters, counterprotesters line up outside of Florence prison
Shortly after 9:30 a.m., a few dozen protesters and counterprotesters lined the barricade set up by police along the intersection of Butte and Pinal Parkway avenues, just outside of the Arizona State Prison where Atwood is scheduled to be executed at 10 a.m.
Both parties stood at opposite sides of the barricade and were not engaging with one another. Protesters carried signs calling for an end to executions, while countering signs read "Justice for Vicki Lynne."

8:45 a.m.: Execution follows 35 years of conviction, sentence challenges
Carlson, Vicki's mom, referred to Atwood's death sentence in 1987 as "the right decision," The Arizona Republic reported at the time.
"It's wonderful to have this feeling of peace inside," she said.
During the next 35 years, Atwood challenged his convictions and sentence, exhausting all of his appeals by 2018, Carlson wrote in an op-ed the following year published in The Arizona Republic.
However by then, Arizona paused executions following the state's botched execution of Joseph Wood in 2014. Witnesses to the execution said they saw Wood gasp for air for two hours, leading to lawsuits from Wood's lawyers.
The state then suspended all executions while it looked to adopt a new lethal injection cocktail and revise execution protocols in compliance with court orders.
In March 2021, state officials said they would resume executions. More than a year later, an execution warrant for Clarence Dixon was issued.
Because Atwood was convicted before 1992, he was given the option to choose between death by gas chamber or lethal injection. His attorney, Joseph Perkovich, claimed the state had not provided enough information to say whether the new lethal injection was safe and effective.
Last month, the Arizona Board of Executive Clemency denied Atwood's request for commutation of sentence, reprieve or pardon. The day before the scheduled execution, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals also rejected Atwood’s appeal of a district court ruling denying his request for an injunction to halt his pending execution.
At that May clemency hearing, Carlson said his execution would not bring her closure, but it would at least mark the end of a long and painful legal process, which she believed would bring her and her family some relief.
"It will end this inmate from harassing our family, filing frivolous appeals, and end him making a mockery of our criminal justice system," she said. "It will end that black cloud that hangs over our heads."
Carlson was not immediately available to speak with The Arizona Republic, but she told KOLD News 13 last month that her family planned to attend Atwood’s execution.

8 a.m.: Atwood was 28 when the crime occurred in 1984
Atwood was arrested on Sept. 20, 1984, in Kerrville, Texas, for kidnapping Vicki Lynne Hoskinson three days earlier. He was 28 years old at the time.
He was identified as the driver of a dark-colored Datsun bearing a license plate reported by a physical education teacher at Vicki's elementary school.
Several people told authorities they also saw the car in the area on the day Vicki disappeared but the teacher, Sam Hall, was the only person to take note of its license plate.
"When I saw the guy, I could feel the hair stand up on the back of my neck. I could feel my skin get goosebumps," Hall told the Tucson Citizen a few years later. "It was a lifetime standing there."
Atwood was brought back to Tucson, where residents learned he was previously convicted in California for sexually assaulting a 7-year-old boy and paroled after serving three of his five-year prison sentence.
It sparked a protest outside the Tucson mall with about 2,500 people demanding change to state laws allowing convicted child molesters on parole. Less than a year later, the "dangerous crimes against children" statute was signed into law by then-Arizona Gov. Bruce Babbitt, creating tougher penalties for people who commit sex offenses against children.
About a month after Vicki's remains were found, Atwood was indicted on a first-degree murder charge.
Atwood's 1987 trial had to be moved to Phoenix to maintain an impartial jury and lasted about 10 weeks. He claimed he was innocent, stating Vicki's murder was "probably the worst thing a person could do in this world."
"I'm not going to admit anything I didn't do," he said. "I had no involvement in it whatsoever."
Atwood was ultimately convicted of kidnapping and murdering Vicki, and sentenced to death. He was 31 years old at the time.

7 a.m.: Who was Vicki Lynne Hoskinson, victim of Atwood?
In 1984, Vicki Lynne Hoskinson stood about 4 feet tall, had short auburn hair and deep blue eyes. She lived in the Flowing Wells area of northern Tucson and had just begun third grade at Homer Davis Elementary School, about a mile from her home on Hadley Street.
Like many other 8-year-old girls at the time, Vicki liked playing with Barbies and her favorite foods were Spaghetti O's and french fries, her mom, Debbie Carlson, said at Atwood's clemency hearing last month.
But on the afternoon of Sept. 17, 1984, Vicki disappeared. She had been riding her pink bike home after mailing a birthday card to her aunt at a nearby corner mailbox.
About 30 minutes after Vicki left, her family found her bike lying in the middle of Pocito Place, less than a mile from their home.
Several witnesses told authorities they saw a man in a dark-colored Datsun driving slowly alongside Vicki before she disappeared.
Despite massive search efforts, Vicki's skeletal remains weren't found until April 12, 1985, when a man walking in desert land near Ina and Artesiano roads saw a small human skull.
She was buried the following month at Evergreen Mortuary and Cemetery in Tucson. About 500 people attended her funeral services.
"She's here, she's everywhere. ... She'll always be a part of us," Carlson said at the clemency hearing. "The inmate worked very, very hard to try to destroy our family, but I would like to say that he didn't win."
