I remember #JuanCastillo executed by the state of Texas on May 16, 2018. He always maintained his innocence. No physical evidence implicated Juan in the murder. He was executed without a hearing on his claims of innocence: texastribune.org/2018/05/16/tex… #EndTheDeathPenalty

At least 30 women linked to the January protests in Iran are being held in Mashhad’s Vakilabad Prison. Many face charges like “enmity against God,” “propaganda against the state,” and other accusations that could lead to severe sentences, even execution. They are kept in the so-called “Peace Ward”: a basement of isolation, pressure, and slow psychological torture. @DrAliceJEdwards @drmaisato @Irenekhan iran-hrm.com/2026/05/15/mas…

Our statement on tonight's execution of Edward Busby Jr., marking the 600th execution in Texas' modern death penalty era. bit.ly/4drQh04

Tonight, May 14, 2026, just after 8:00 PM CT, the State of Texas executed Edward Busby. Mr. Busby now bears the terrible distinction of being the 600th person put to death by Texas since 1982. Read TCADP's statement: tcadp.org/wp-content/upl…

The last words of Edward Busby, who just became the 600th person to be executed by lethal injection in Texas .

Just In: Great news for #RichardGlossip who was just granted bond after 29 years in prison — including nearly being executed three times — for a crime he did not commit.

ATTY STMT: Judge grants #RichardGlossip bond:“For the first time in 29 years of being incarcerated for a crime he did not commit…Mr. Glossip now has the chance to taste freedom while his defense team continues to pursue justice on his behalf…” More here: tinyurl.com/3hv8zbb6

#EdwardBusby is scheduled to be executed in Texas on May 14 even though experts & the State agreed he is intellectually disabled and therefore ineligible for execution. Email the Board of Pardons and Paroles: bpp_clemency@tdcj.texas.gov Urge them to recommend clemency.
