Execution Watch: 9/20/11

Texas plans to put to death Cleve "Sarge" Foster Tuesday for his participation in a crime in which another man admitted to killing someone. Execution Watch will be there.


TEXAS PLANS TO EXECUTE:


CLEVE "SARGE" FOSTER. This is the third execution date set for Foster, who was convicted of participating in a 2002 crime in Tarrant County in which another man has admitted committing a murder. The US Supreme Court granted Foster a last-minute stay of execution in January, later rejecting his appeal. Foster was then set to be executed in April when the Supreme Court issued a second stay to consider his request for a rehearing. In May the high court decided not to take up that motion.
