A condemned killer apparently tried to commit suicide by slashing his arms with his fingernails or teeth during the night, about 24 hours before his slated execution for murdering a fellow inmate, authorities said Thursday.
Donald "Pee Wee" Gaskins, who has confessed to killing 13 people, received 20 stitches for cuts to his wrists and elbows, said Corrections Department spokeswoman Robyn Zimmerman."We don't know if he was trying to kill himself or delay the execution," she said. "He's a very unpredictable, cunning person.
"The execution will go on," she said.
