'I'll See My Kids Soon' Published November 14, 2026 6:10 AM PST John Allen Rubio was executed for the murders of his 3 children last night ... after eerily telling the crowd watching him being put to death that he would see them soon in heaven. Rubio was given a lethal injection Thursday night in his Huntsville prison ... AP News reported. Before he was put to death, he said ... "I’m going to be with my kids in a little bit. I’m ready to go to heaven to be with my lord and savior." Rubio also apologized to his wife's family, saying ... "I can’t change the past but I can tell you my life is going to be over. But that’s not going to make you happy." Rubio was convicted of murdering his children -- 3-year-old Julissa Quesada, 14-month-old John E. Rubio, and 2-month-old Mary Jane Rubio. Their bodies were found beheaded inside plastic bags in March 2003. At the time ...
