Racist serial killer Joseph Paul Franklin was executed early this morning after a murderous cross-country spree from 1977 to 1980, the USA Today reports.
The 63-year-old, who targeted black and Jewish people, was executed in Missouri.
Franklin claimed responsibility for 20 murders but was convicted of seven.
He also has admitted he shot Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt, who was paralyzed in the 1978 attack.
