I have to add that I'm not sure which Monday the video was filmed. It may have been last year or it may be current.

Only took the jury 30 minutes.

Jamie's last words were "I'm sorry!" :-(

Thanks for the update. How sad is that about her last words. :( :(

Death Penalty phase starts Monday. I hope it takes them even less than 30 minutes to decide that! 🤬🤬🤬.

I wrote about this case a lot when I was writing for The Crime Library. It got to me, I'm afraid. Really unsettling. Here are the articles I wrote in April, 2006:
Lately, I've begun to reconsider my feelings about the death penalty. Then Underwood comes up, and I feel a bit more sure again. Some evil just needs to be eradicated.

NORMAN, Okla. — A jury recommended the death penalty Friday for a man convicted of luring a 10-year-old girl into his apartment, killing her and mutilating her body.

Jurors deliberated for nearly 8 1/2 hours before recommending that Kevin Underwood, 28, be put to death for killing Jamie Rose Bolin. He was convicted last week of first-degree murder.

From Chico's link:

His mother, Connie Underwood, sobbed quietly after the verdict was announced.

The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals on Friday upheld the conviction and death sentence of Kevin Ray Underwood, who was found guilty of the gruesome April 2006 murder of 10-year-old Jamie Bolin, of Purcell.
. . . “The evidence of appellant's guilt was overwhelming and essentially uncontested,” the Court of Criminal Appeals said in its 72-page opinion.

'An Oklahoma death row inmate who was described as a "deeply evil monster" was denied clemency Friday.

Kevin Ray Underwood, 44, is set to be executed Thursday − on his birthday − at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester.

The Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board voted 3-0 against clemency after hearing chilling excerpts of his confession to murdering his 10-year-old neighbor, Jamie Rose Bolin, at his Purcell apartment in 2006.'

The girl's father, Curtis Bolin, was scheduled to testify to the board but became choked up as he held his head in his hand.

"I'm sorry, I can't," he said.

Prosecutors wrote in opposing Underwood's clemency request that, "Whatever deviance of the mind led Underwood to abduct, beat, suffocate, sexually abuse and nearly decapitate Jamie cannot be laid at the feet of depression, anxiety or (autism).

"I remember watching the officers from a window in Jamie's apartment escort you to your apartment without handcuffs and back out in handcuffs. I remember the sinking feeling that my sister was gone," Lori Pate said during the clemency hearing. "How dare you, Kevin Underwood, ask for clemency. How dare you look at the courts, look at Jamie's family, then ask that of us."

Underwood's execution is scheduled for 10 a.m. Thursday at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester.
