Texas death row inmate tears out own eye, eats it

DALLAS (Reuters) - A death row inmate in Texas tore out his eyeball with his fingers and ate it, leaving him blind after he gouged out his other eye several years ago, the state's department of criminal justice said on Friday.

"We don't know how it happened," said Jason Clark, a spokesman for the department. "There are no indications that he used anything other than his hands."

Andre Thomas, 25, was now in a secure psychiatric facility after he pulled out his left eye last month at the death row unit in Livingston in eastern Texas, Clark said.

Thomas was condemned for killing his wife, son and infant stepdaughter in 2004, according to the department's brief account of the case. Local media reports said he had ripped out the hearts of his victims.

Thomas was on death row since March 2005 but did not have an execution date. There are 373 inmates on death row in Texas, the Washington-based Death Penalty Information Center says.

A hell-raising clique of cheerleaders for years wreaked havoc on a small Texas town during a troubling era of "Mean Girls"-style mischief protected by the high school principal - the mother of one of the fearsome five.
"They skipped school, broke dress code, cheated on tests, and told teachers off," Michaela Ward, a former cheerleading coach at McKinney North HS, told The Post.
The so-called "Fab Five" partied with impunity through a succession of five cheerleading coaches and forced teachers and students to put up with their above-the-law antics.
