A vicious killer is dead
In Texas, justice:
In a case that has drawn international attention, Texas executed José E. Medellín on Tuesday night in defiance of an international court ruling and despite pleas from the Bush administration for a new hearing.
Medellín was one of five bastards who, in 1993, raped, tortured and murdered two teenage girls from Houston. He was the second of the five to be executed. Texas put down Derrick O’Brien in 2006. Gang leader Peter Cantu is next.
The people of Texas can’t bring back Elizabeth Peña and Jennifer Ertman. But we can avenge them.
