Delma Banks Jr. had eaten his last meal and, in a controlled panic, was starting to count off the final 10 minutes of his life when word came last March 12 that his execution was being postponed because the Supreme Court might want to review his case....
Lying witnesses. Lousy lawyers. Corrupt prosecutors. Racism.
None of these issues mattered to the state of Texas, which was ready and oh-so-willing to kill this man at 6 p.m. on March 12, and is still ready and willing to do so.
When state officials have no qualms about executing people even though there are clear doubts about their guilt and about whether they have been treated fairly by the justice system, it's time to bring the curtain down on their ability to execute anyone. article
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
