Mexican executed after appeal denied in Texas

Mexican national Jose Ernesto Medellin has been executed by lethal injection, according to Texas prison officials.

Corrections spokeswoman Michelle Lyons said Medellin died at 9:57 CT.

The U.S. Supreme Court denied the last-ditch appeal of a Mexican national on Texas' death row late Tuesday, paving the way for him to be executed for a pair of brutal slayings, state corrections officials said.

However, it would have been preferable to have destroyed this savage much earlier. The money saved could have been contributed to the victims families.

Roscoe Slade Lexington, KY	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #7 Tuesday Aug 5 Judged: 16 8 2 To those who wonder why killers get 15-20 years of appeals before justice is rendered: judges and lawyers DON'T WANT IT. Trials, mis-trials, re-trials, endless appeals are their meal tickets. They have a lifetime of guaranteed income processing these worthless pieces of crap that should be executed within six months. Oba Carr murdered a mother and two daughters in Florida 20 years ago and that son of buzzard puke is still enjoying TV and whatever else in the prison system.

I'm not saying I agree or disagree with the practice of capital punishment, but as "God's Warrior", shouldn't you be concerned about preserving life no matter how guilty since theoretically by accepting Jesus into their heart they can be forgiven? An eye for an eye sort of went out with the old testament.

Too bad for his sake Pelosi was busy "saving the planet". She might have saved his butt since she loves killers/terrorists and thinks they should have the rights of Americans.

This is also a message to all foreign nationals with bad intentions: do not come to our country and rape and murder our citizens, because we don't care where you're from, you will be punished to the full extent of the law just like any American citizen would be for the same crime. Foreigners should not not get special privileges if they commit crimes in America.

He!l with this crap of keeping them alive and living better than many of our less fortunate US citizens that have not broken any laws - especially if the f'ck ups murder or are a part of any of the many other serious crimes these scumballs commit with regularity. Just my opinion. ... kh
