Profile Keith Nelson
I'm Keith Nelson, age 28, originally from Kansas, Missouri, and parts of Texas. I came to death row in March of 2002 after pleading guilty to the crime of murder. I was sentenced to death after a sentencing hearing. I cannot adequately express in words the remorse I feel for having taken a precious human life. I can never escape the past or the hate and anger expressed by those whom I have hurt. I live for now, with their screams for my death echoing in my mind. I don't blame them for seeking revenge, but I wish for them a sense of peace. I doubt they will get the emotional fix they cry out for by watching me die. Only time will tell. I spend my time these days trying to do something constructive. That doesn't set well with those who hate me. This was recently proven when a Kansas City area TV station aired a segment about me making paper roses in my cell on death row. All proceeds went to charity. I don't expect anyone to feel sorry for me as I'm a grown man. What I will continue to do is the best things possible with the talents and abilities that I possess, and to those who don't like it, I'm sorry. I like to draw, paint, and make hobby craft type items from paper. I enjoy writing and receiving letters. I like listening to music on a walkman and reading books on art and painting. Solitary confinement brings with it a routine including lots of time for reflection and meditation, but mostly time is spent waiting to die. Correspondence is welcomed.
