Following were the final moments of Martin Grossman, as reported to me by Gretl Plessinger, Communications Director atthe Flarida State Prison, located Raiford, FL.

Feb 16, 2010 EST:

6.00 PM: Curtain Opened.

6.02 PM: Grossman said as follows: “I would like to extend my heartfelt remorse to the victim’s family. I fully regret everything that occurred that night, and for everything that was done, weather I remember everything or not. I accept responsibility. I would like to say a prayer Shma Israel…” (He said the full passage)

6.07: Grossman was rendered unconscious from first type drug..

6.08: Warden gave signal to administer a drug that paralyzes the body.

6.??: a drug that stops the heart was injected.

6.16: A physician went into the room to check Grossman.

6.17: Grossman pronounced dead.

I would like to point-out that the automated reply e-mail that FL Gov. Crist sent Feb 16, writing the gruesome details of how Ms. Parks died and what was done to ditch evidence, is misleading at best, and pure defamation and flat-out lies at worst.

The Governor omits ANY mention of the words Thayne Taylor the person with whom Grossman spent that evening in the woods. Taylor by the least helped Grossman commit the acts that Crist writes about, or perhaps more accurately: Taylor led in action, and Grossman followed.

It sure was an easy move for prosecutors to recommend a low prison term for Taylor in exchange for incriminating Grossman on all acts, regardless what really took place between Taylor, Grossman and Parks. It is however an unheard and precedent less CHUTZPA for Crist to produce the smear he did, knowing/thinking that Grossman does not have much of a family that will stand-up to defend his name.

I am NOT defending the acts of Grossman. However, his misdeeds do NOT give a free pass for Crist to write what he wants about this case.
