ILLINOIS PRISONS OFFER BEST IN DEATH ROW DINING



PORT TOWNSEND, Wash. (Wireless Flash) – The prisons in Illinois offer last meals that are simply to die for. According to a new book, Last Suppers: Famous Final Meals From Death Row (Loompanics), Illinois prisons offer food that’s the equivalent of four-star restaurants – and talk about service: two guards even hunted and killed a rabbit for one prisoner’s last meal. The authors of the book rank Virginia as the worst state for death row dining because prison guards there simply won’t accommodate condemned gourmets – including one prisoner who simply wanted a good wine to go his last meal: an egg and cheese sandwich.
