Texas execution of Jeff Wood; for a murder he did not witness!!

Image...
Jeff Wood will be executed at 6pm today in Texas. Jeff sat in a truck while the driver and the Assistant manager of a convenience store were faking a robbery. When Reneau , the driver , shot store clerk and friend Kriss Keeran.

I usually support the Death Penalty however if this is what happens as a byproduct I have to change my position. If someone will not stand up against this travesty of justice , then it needs to be done away with altogether.

    This is a sad day for justice. This is totally murder by the state of Texas. How can justice be so blind.

    After reading the entire article, I was curious to learn more about James Grigson, aka, "Dr. Death", who testified against this man and many, many others in similar court situations. He passed away a few years ago. Check this out. From 2000.

    I do not believe in the death penalty.

    I do believe the man is guilty if he was participating in the burglary/robbery or whatever. The law states that if you are participating and someone dies you are a part of that.

    Too many mistakes are made with the death penalty and certainly is not free of racial bias.

    Everyone is diminished by the death penalty. Isn't this the same state that put a man to death whose IQ was in the 50's?

    I Just called , "Texas supreme court issues stay of execution pending review." See. When more people know, justice CAN be served! I will be interested to see how it all turns out.

    I am sad for the families of all these folks. I really should not have said the man was guilty. I am not an attorney.

    Justice is, too often, very unjust...sounds like he had a poor excuse for an attorney...
