Stanley Williams was executed in March 5th, 2005.
 In 2001, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit heard Williams' appeal from the lower federal court, and the appellate court denied Williams' appeal in 2002, but noted that the federal courts were not his only forum for relief and that he could request clemency from the Governor of California
"Williams' body was laid out for viewing on December 19, 2005, and drew 2,000 mourners
