Leal Garcia, who had lived in the United States since he was an infant, was convicted of raping a 16-year-old girl and bludgeoning her to death with a piece of asphalt in 1994.
In a last statement provided by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Leal Garcia apologised to the victim's family and asked for their forgiveness.
"I truly am sorry. That is all. Let's get this show on the road," Leal Garcia said, according to the transcript. "One more thing, Viva Mexico Viva Mexico."
