https://www.rte.ie/news/world/2022/0426/1294325-lucio-court/ I've been reading about this one. She's just been granted a stay of execution - but it seems a very clearcut case of a coerced confession where there is significant doubt as to the facts of the case. What the fuck is wrong with Texas? Defenders of this kind of ignominy - identify yourselves so that we may hurl abuse.
Frankly, I'm surprised the stay was granted. Texas Republicans seem unable to get it up unless the state is murdering someone on their behalf.
If there's anything Texans hate more than Mexicans, it's women. A Mexican woman doesn't stand a chance.
Haha motherfuckers. He's scheduled to be executed today though, despite prosecutors and the DA saying he's innocent.
It's in Texas, where Abbot is governor. Yeah, he's fucked. In most of the states in the Union he'd get a pardon. Not Texas.
Missouri to execute Marcellus Williams despite prosecutors’ objections and innocence claims If this goes ahead, the Governor and the Attorney General should be prosecuted for murder themselves.
The US Supreme Court distinguished themselves yet again, I see. I wonder if this would have happened had he been white.
Racism could certainly be a factor (duh) but in the justice system, I would argue that it's just as much a matter of class as race. I mean when was the last time we executed a millionaire?
