I just read an article from CNN regarding an inmate in the Texas State prison, Medellin was 18 when he took part in the June 1993 gang rape and murder of two Harris County girls, Jennifer Ertman, 14, and Elizabeth Pena, 16. He was convicted of the crimes and sentenced to death. However it would seem that his attorneys and the president and the supreme court have alot if issues still trying to be worked out. Read the entire article.
I do think this person should remain in the United States and serve a prison term perferable life for the act in which he was found guilty for. There are alot of hands involved in this case, and Texas does not mess around when you are on death row there.
If his execution goes thru Medellin’s execution would be the first of what promises to be a busy month at the state’s death chamber in Huntsville. Five other men are scheduled to die by lethal injection in the next four weeks.
