From the link I had posted above.. Appears they are awaiting an answer from the SCOTUS for either a stay or a rejection of the appeal. All they have to do is hold out until midnight Texas time and they in effect have granted additional time as the execution date process has to begin all over.

-——Prison officials moved Jose Ernesto Medellin from his death row cell to another just steps from Texas’ death chamber Monday.

But prison officials were still waiting for the final go-ahead from the U.S. Supreme Court as the scheduled 6 p.m. execution time passed.———— end snip

But if they don't provide either a stay or a rejection, I don't see why they would not carry out the execution prior to midnight.

I know this has been pointed out, but if a stay has not been granted, then why wait for a rejection?

So if they run out the clock tonight...

..the families of these two little girls go home knowing someone, somewhere care more for illegals rights than the rights of their daughters....who were American citizens.

Good mercy, if we haven't awaken to the plight of our country, this should surely do it!
