They have waited years for justice....
..and still they wait.
Ban Ki(ss) my Moon !
Assumint a permanent stay isn’t granted by the SCOTUS, my hunch is that this delay is because one or more of the liberal justices is writing a dissent from the denial of the stay. Either Breyer or Stevens would be my guess.
How many battle-ready brigades does the UN have? How about the “International Court”?
Is that before or after subtracting US forces?
Still in jail, awaiting trial.
Yeah, one of the killer beasts skipped town, and was caught later.
Just hang the him by the A$$.
I have to go get in the shower. Ping my beeber if he gets stuned tonight.
Jose, can you see,
that there big, long IV?
Going into your arm,
gonna do you some harm.
When the levers are pulled,
it’s gonna cause you to die.
(OK, the last line is a little rough . . . )

Then we all will raise glasses to wish you goodbye
Jose can you see
That you are about to pay,
for the deaths of Jennifer and Elizabeth that day.

That’s the downside to all these behind-the-scenes moves. It tears up the victim’s families.
A guy with the last name of Luna (have no idea about his legality) decided at the age of 18 he wanted to kill some people.
So the restaurant owners, who had fired him recently, were the targets as well as the 5 other people who were working there that night.
It was planned & he had an accomplice.
They all were brutally murdered..(Brown's Chicken Massacre)
This was in 1993!!!!!
It was a cold case...
..until years later, someone told police and the guy confessed...
But during the trial, ONE juror held out, and instead of the death penalty, he got life.
The accomplice is STILL waiting to go to trial----it's been 15 years!
The wheels of justice turn slowly.
Give KHOU credit, they posted photographs of his victims. He’s had about fifteen years more oxygen than any reasonable society would allow.
I have a sick feeling justice will not be served today.
Exactly. They are just waiting on the USSC to rule on Medellin’s stay request.
An ILLEGAL who was also a GANG MEMBER and murdered two UNITED STATES female teenage CITIZENS by raping, sodomizing, mutilating & strangling them to death.
Apparently this was submitted to the SCOTUS on Friday and they still haven’t returned an answer........
From the Houston Cronicle:
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5924476.html
....His lawyers asked the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday to stop the execution until legislation can be passed to formalize case reviews ordered by the International Court of Justice. Medellin’s supporters say either Congress or the Texas Legislature should be given a chance to pass a law setting up procedures for new hearings.

I believe Bush did have the DOJ try to intervene and Texas told them to shove off, they had no right to interfere.
