Stanley "Tookie" Williams may be buried in South Africa

Former South African first lady Winnie Madikizela-Mandela will do everything in her power to ensure that executed murderer Stanley "Tookie" Williams is buried in South Africa - if it is still his family's wish. However, Beeld quotes Madikizela-Mandela’s spokesperson, Udo Froese, as saying so far there has not been any official communication between her and the Williams family in Los Angeles. 51-year-old Williams was executed yesterday in California’s San Quention Prison, despite requests from groups opposed to the death penalty and celebrities, asking governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to grant him clemency.
