Texas executed a man by lethal injection on Wednesday who was convicted of stabbing his girlfriend, her child and her mother to death after a cocaine binge in 2001.The USSC refused 5-4 a late appeal, apparently based on alleged mental impairment. He was 39, young for a condemned man. Ironically, he was said to have planned to kill himself with drugs before being caught. Horrible crime, but unlikely deterrent here. Retribution.
Various thoughts on current events with an emphasis on politics, legal issues, books, movies and whatever is on my mind. Emails can be sent to almostsanejoe@aol.com; please put "blog comments" in the subject line.
