Garcia White Case
Texas’s top criminal court has halted Wednesday’s execution of a prisoner linked to five killings in Houston.
The Texas court of criminal appeals issued a reprieve on Tuesday to death row inmate Garcia White. Prosecutors and defence attorneys say the court did not immediately explain its decision.
Garcia White was sentenced to death after being convicted of fatally stabbing twin 16-year-old girls at a Houston apartment where their mother was also killed. White was also tied to the deaths of a grocery store owner and a prostitute.
In their appeal, White’s attorneys argued that he may have been mentally impaired because of longtime cocaine use when he waived his right to an attorney during interrogations.
They also say DNA evidence suggests a second person may have been involved in the triple slaying.
