I remember a few years ago that the State of Texas executed a man that they knew was innocent, but since he had been convicted and sentenced they executed him anyway.

Name him.

This article is one of the most blatantly one-sided, misleading articles I have ever seen. I read the opinions of the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals and the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. In addition to the testimony of the arson investigator, the State presented evidence that this man was more interested in saving his car than his infant daughters, tried to get the investigators to help him find his precious dart board, and was at the scene with his wife laughing and listening to music the day after the fire. Furthermore, an inmate testified that he confessed to having set the fire to cover up evidence of child abuse. All of this may be already posted in the thread, but I haven't had time to wade through all of the posts. My point is that the article doesn't even make a pretense of being objective and fair.

I don't remember his name. I saw them interview him on TV a few days before they executed him. Texas officials admitted he was innocent before they killed him.

And they killed him anyway.
