Grant was given a lethal injection after requesting a very large meal.

On the menu were: sesame chicken, six egg rolls, shrimp fried rice and a large apple fritter.

However, if the dessert was not available, Grant asked for three pints of strawberry ice cream.

On July 18, 2001, Donald Grant was accused of robbing a La Quinta Inn in Del City, Oklahoma.

Two women were murdered at the time of the robbery: Brenda McElyea, 29, and Felicia Suzette Smith, 43.

Donald Grant was 25 years old at the time of the robbery, according to the NY Post.

The women reportedly suffered both gunshot and stab wounds.

Grant was arrested after being found in New York by members of a US Marshals’ task force.

“So I’m sitting in the house cleaning my gun with kill on my mind for whoever’s a** is there,” he wrote in a confession letter at the time, according to The Oklahoman.

Following the execution, Attorney General of Oklahoma, John O’Connor said: “The State’s execution of Donald Grant was carried out with zero complications at 10:16 this morning.

“Justice is now served for Brenda McElyea, Felecia Suzette Smith, and the people of Oklahoma.”
