On Wednesday, 15th December 1999, twenty-five years ago today, Sammy Felder, Jr, whom Ali thought of as a brother, was executed by the state of Texas. Ali and I had been able to spend four hours with him on each of the three days from Monday 13th December, and were present when he was declared dead by lethal injection at 6.15pm.
