Death row inmate pushed the limit with last meal before he died by lethal injection

A death row inmate's final meal has been revealed as he became the first person in South Carolina to be executed in over a decade.

On Friday (September 20), Khalil Divine Black Sun Allah died by lethal injection at the Broad River Correctional Institution in Columbia.

He's the first person to have been executed in South Carolina in 13 years and was sentenced to death in 1999 for armed robbery and the killing of gas station clerk Irene Graves two years prior.

Allah - who was previously known as Freddie Owens before he changed his name in 2015 - always maintained his innocence and said he didn't kill Graves.

With this in mind, his attorneys tried to stop his execution. In the days leading up to his death, Steven Golden - who served almost 30 years in prison for his role in murder - signed a declaration stating that he had lied during the 1999 trial when he said Allah had pulled the trigger on the gun that killed Graves.

Despite this, prosecutors presented 'considerable other evidence' in Allah's first trial that tied him to the crime, South Carolina Daily Gazette reports.

Like all death row inmates, Allah was given a final meal of his choosing.

According to WYFF, the 46-year-old opted for an array of foods including two cheeseburgers, fries, a well-done ribeye steak, six chicken wings, two strawberry sodas and a slice of apple pie.

No family members of his were at this death, but Graves' son and son-in-law were both present.

Reportedly Allah's final words were simply him saying goodbye to his lawyer.

Media witness Jeffery Collins was also present at the execution.

"No sign of any discomfort," he wrote. "Freddie Owens the whole way through, had maybe, like a small smile or certainly not a grimace or anything like that during the time that he appeared to still have consciousness when this was going on."

While Allah ordered quite a feast ahead of his execution, former inmate Victor Harry Feguer asked for a single olive before his death in 1963.

Apparently Fegeur ordered the olive with the intention of it creating life once he'd died.

He's believed to have told guards that he wanted the olive pit to be buried with him in the hopes that an olive tree would grow.

It's said the pit was found in Fegeur's pocket after his execution. It isn't thought that his wish of it growing into a tree ever came true, however.
