Execution Watch: 5/15/2013

The death machine just keeps grinding away...

ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT, TEXAS PLANS TO EXECUTE:

JEFFERY D. WILLIAMS.  Condemned in the 1999 shooting death of a Houston Police officer who was trying to arrest him for driving a stolen Lexus. The officer was alive when backup arrived but died later of his wounds. A delay in the arrival of an ambulance sparked a probe of the Houston Fire Department's dispatching procedures. The contention was that the officer might have survived had he received treatment sooner. Investigators found that the dispatcher initially misdirected the ambulance to a location miles away.
