Execution Watch 11/8/2017

RUBEN CARDENAS, a Mexican national, was convicted of murdering his cousin, a teenage girl from the border town of McAllen. Cardenas' conviction must be tossed, say Mexican authorities and his attorneys, because police violated Article 36(1)(b) of the Vienna Convention on Consular Rights when they failed to notify him of his right to contact the Mexican embassy after his arrest.
