Execution Watch: 4/9/2013

Posted on 5:00 AM by Unknown
And the killing machine just keeps running...

ON TUESDAY NIGHT, TEXAS PLANS TO EXECUTE:

RICKEY LYNN LEWIS. Convicted of sexually assaulting a Tyler woman and killing her fiance during a home burglary in 1990. A previous execution date was stayed because of claims that Mr. Lewis had extremely poor intellectual functioning, but a court ruled in 2005 that his intellectual abilities were not an issue.

For more information on Mr. Lewis, click here.
