'Tourniquet killer' put to death in first US execution of 2018A confessed murderer in Texas, dubbed the “tourniquet killer” for the way he strangled his victims, on Thursday became the first inmate executed in the United States in 2018. Anthony Shore was put to death for raping, torturing and murdering three girls and a young woman in Houston in the 1980s and 1990s. To the family of my victims, I wish I could undo that past.
