(January 17, 2007)—A self-described fascist who adopted the dark punk and Goth lifestyle was put to death just after 6 p.m. Wednesday in Huntsville.
Thirty-two-year-old Johnathan Moore was sentenced to die for shooting San Antonio police Officer Fabian Dominguez to death 12 years ago.
He was the second Texas death row inmate put to death this year and the second of five set to die this month in the nation's busiest capital punishment state.
Authorities say Moore gunned Dominguez down after the officer interrupted him and two companions during the January 1995 burglary of a house in Dominguez's neighborhood.
When he confronted the three, Moore shot the officer with a .25-caliber handgun, then grabbed the officer's service revolver and shot him three more times in the head.
Moore was arrested the next day after leading police on a chase into neighboring Bandera County and wrecking his car by hitting a couple of police cars.
