Officials with the Oklahoma County Detention Center on Saturday confirmed a woman inmate died the night before.

"To the younger Oklahomans here today, you may not remember that morning, but you live in a state forever shaped by it. You are the next stewards of the Oklahoma Standard," Stitt said.

"Even then, when tens of thousands of tomorrows will have passed, this commitment by the people of Oklahoma City to stand against evil must endure," Mayor David Holt said.

"It was unbelievable for those of us who were here and there to comprehend that the devil himself walks the earth and murdered 168 of our neighbors and friends," Gov. Frank Keating said.
