Execution Watch: 5/2/2012

The state that carries out more executions than any other state is ready to kill again...

ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT, TEXAS PLANS TO EXECUTE:

ANTHONY BARTEE, 55, convicted in the August 1996 robbery murder of a friend,. He was given a stay before his scheduled execution in February so additional DNA testing could be done. When an execution date of May 2 was announced, Bartee's attorney David Dow sent the court a letter saying the new date should not have been set because DNA testing hadn’t been done. Dow protested that no notice of a hearing for a new execution date was sent to him or Bartee.
