The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals denied one of death row inmate Robert Roberson’s final appeals on Friday, declining to halt his Oct. 17 execution and again rejecting his long-standing claim of innocence and argument that his conviction was based on a now-debunked shaken baby syndrome diagnosis.
Roberson, who was convicted of capital murder in 2003 for the death of his ailing 2-year-old daughter, Nikki Curtis, has maintained his innocence over 20 years on death row.
He has argued that his conviction was based on a flawed shaken baby syndrome diagnosis given to his daughter, which presumed abuse on his part and did not consider her severe illness before her death.
may the Judge be shaken to death as an act of justice by a supposedly God.
And the governor for good measure.
The thought that God will punish bad people so we shouldn’t punish them now is how we get where we are. Punish bad people during their life, and not to death.
