Der Fall
Terry Darnell Edwards
Kampf, bis zur letzten Sekunde
um Gerechtigkeit, Wahrheit und Leben
Emotionale und seelische Folter
für alle Beteiligten
Obwohl die Dallas News Zeitung mitteilte, dass Texas die Ausführung von Terry D. Edwards sich nicht leisten kann, da es zu viele offene Fragen zu seiner Schuld und seinen Rechten gibt, wurde die Execution mit 4 stündiger Verspätung durchgeführt.
Terry`s last Statement:
Yes, I made peace with God. I hope y'all make peace with this.

The execution, set to begin after 6 p.m., was delayed while the Texas Department of Criminal Justice awaited final rulings from the high court on last-minute pleadings for a stay. When the final denial came at around 9:45 p.m., witnesses walked from the cold, pitch-black night into the death chamber. A bald, goateed Edwards was strapped to a gurney, staring straight at the ceiling, looking determined and resolved.
