Texas executes Mexican-born killer
HUNTSVILLE, Texas -- A Mexican-born condemned prisoner was executed tonight for the rape and murder of two teenage girls 15 years ago after a divided U.S. Supreme Court rejected his request for a reprieve.
Jose Medellin's case attracted international attention after he raised claims he wasn't allowed to consult the Mexican consulate for legal help following his arrest. State officials say he didn't ask to do so until well after he was convicted of capital murder. Medellin, 33, faced lethal injection for participating in the 1993 gang rape, beating and strangling of Elizabeth Pena, 16, and Jennifer Ertman, 14. |
