Huntsville Prison, Texas

Friedberg cursed and twisted and shrieked abuse at her guards, at the warden, at Juanita Seguin, and at Texas in general.

"Let me go, you f.u.c.king a.s.sholes. Let me go! Let me go! Don't you realize who I am? I'm the f.u.c.king head of the f.u.c.king FBI. You don't strap Don't you realize who I am? I'm the f.u.c.king head of the f.u.c.king FBI. You don't strap me me onto a gurney. I put you on one." onto a gurney. I put you on one."

Ignoring her protests, her guards hauled her to the gurney and strapped her down roughly. The entire time, Friedberg hurled abuse at them, abuse they ignored.

She began to scream and twist, upsetting the technician's aim and causing him to have to make multiple strikes with the needle. At each failed penetration Friedberg screamed anew. Finally, weakened, she began to sob and to beg. The needles went in.

Juanita took the place of the warden for the next phase, something of an unusual deviation. "Louise Freidberg, you have been found guilty by a jury of your peers of the murders of Josefina Sanchez, Maria Ramirez, Pablo Trujillo...Father Jorge Montoya," she concluded.

At the conclusion of Juanita's list of nearly one hundred murders, the warden took over again.

Friedberg screamed until the sodium pentathol reached her brain.
