A Texas man convicted of killing an elderly woman decades ago was put to death Tuesday, an execution that took place hours after the US Supreme Court overturned an order that delayed the sentence.
Jedidiah Murphy, 48, was pronounced dead at 10:15 p.m., after a lethal injection at the state penitentiary in Huntsville for the October 2000 fatal shooting of 80-year-old Bertie Lee Cunningham of the Dallas suburb of Garland. She was killed during a carjacking. Hours before his execution, Murphy was given the standard meal afforded to all inmates at the correctional facility, as Texas did away with the customary last meal for death row inmates years ago.On Tuesday, the menu included baked chicken, pinto beans, cheesy rice vegetable blend, corn, peaches, sliced bread, a cheeseburger, green beans, oven-fried potatoes, pickles and mustard, a spokesperson for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice told Fox News Digital.
The execution took place hours after the US Supreme Court overturned an order that had delayed the death sentence from being carried out. The high court late Tuesday also turned down another request to stay Murphy’s execution over claims the drugs he was injected with were exposed to extreme heat and smoke during a recent fire, making them unsafe and leaving him at risk of pain and suffering.Powerball player wins lottery's $1.
