Looks to me like they might be killing an innocent man. Often they go on with this sort of thing because they have him in custody and he is black and the family needs "closure." Once he is dead more families will need "closure."

I think it boils down to the old adage in America of "Hey he's black so he has to be guilty."

I want to cry. Actually I did cry.

Happens in Texas all the time. They executed a man they new was innocent because he had exhausted his allotted appeals.

The image is just a long, very, very narrow strip that looks like an extremely stretched bar code. I am unable to view it.

The case appears to be a classic example of the institutional racism found in much of the American legal system.
