The state requires that the execution be witnessed. The state witnesses are on one side of the chamber, William's witnesses are on the other.

According to reports some in William's contingent shouted, "The state of California has just executed an innocent man" as they were leaving the witness area.

According to reports, Mrs. Owens (victim Albert Owens’ mother) broke down in tears after the incident. Mrs. Owens has publicly stated that she has respect for the position of the anti-death penalty advocates.

I've been very impressed with this woman, who to this day will not allow her state of residence to be public knowledge for fear of retaliation. (Threats have been made.)

Neither Owen's daughter nor any member of the Yang family will make any public statements for the same reason.
