Second Texas Execution

| 0 Comments

The Supreme Court denied a stay to Roy Lee Pippin in this trio of orders. No dissents are noted. Pippin was executed a little after 6:30, Texas time, reports Michael Graczyk of AP. Pippin admitted being part of the drug smuggling operation that killed Elmer and Fabio Buitrago almost 13 years ago, but he claims he wasn't the triggerman. The Buitragos were killed because drug money was missing.
