It’s bad enough when ‘experts’ chime in on an arson case with blah-blah antiquated opinions. But then to have the prosecutor promise (and deliver) a lighter sentence to a jail house informant–and through another man keep paying the false informer? fantastic? The stuff of movies? Unfortunately, it is the stuff of an execution, probably a botched job from the beginning. Texas Gov. Rick Perry continues to stand by the decision and his impression of the man’s guilt. (Same R Perry who won’t sign the federal PREA against prison rape because he is unsure of the details in it.)
