Well isn’t this special:
WINNIE Madikizela-Mandela has offered to help fulfil the final wish of executed former Los Angeles gang leader Stanley “Tookie” Williams and hold his burial in South Africa.
A spokesman for the flamboyant former wife of Nelson Mandela told the Afrikaans daily newspaper Beeld that Madikizela-Mandela will “honour her promise to see that Williams is buried in South Africa.”
Williams, who was found guilty of four killings but became an anti-violence crusader on death row and an author of several books, was executed in California yesterday by lethal injection.
Quoting Williams’s former wife Bonny Williams-Taylor, the newspaper said it was the former gang leader’s wish to be buried in South Africa.
He met Ms Madikizela-Mandela in 1996 and was “very impressed” with her, Ms Williams-Taylor said.
“She had huge influence on his life and it was his wish to be buried there (in South Africa).”
From one murderer to another Winnie? Gotta stick together.
I guess the only good thing about this would be the fact his body will no longer be on US soil. He contaminated our soil long enough.

If his ashes are spread over South Africa, he should be sued for air polution.
