Crime & Punishment

[seeker_two]

Last meal requests in Texas went away after some guy requested a ridiculous quantity of expensive stuff. Then he didn't touch it. That's the basics I remember.

Let me do some research and I'll post again.

ETA: From Wikipedia -

Stupid overreaction on TDCJ's part. Base the last meal request on how much they have in their commissary account.

Other states just put a dollar limit on the meal and/or specify that the food must be locally sourced.

Four horses and four pieces of rope.

Alternately, "Tall tree; short rope".
