Do you got anything to say for yourself before the sentence of the court is executed? Shad Wilkins: I told you they shot at me first. I didn`t mean to kill that steer on purpose. I was aiming at the man. Judge Roy W. Bean: It`s your bad luck you missed him. That`s the trouble with you sodbusters...you can`t shoot straight. Shad, may the Lord have mercy on your soul.
