Texas Death Row Inmate Granted Another Supreme Court Reprieve

Washington (CNN) -- The Supreme Court for the third time this year has stopped the pending capital punishment of a Texas inmate, giving lawyers for the man more time to file their appeals.

The justices on Tuesday issued an order granting a stay of execution for Cleve Foster, about 2 1/2 hours before his scheduled lethal injection. The Gulf War veteran was convicted along with another man of the 2002 murder of Nyanuer "Mary" Pal, a Sudanese immigrant he met at a Fort Worth bar.

Something should be done with all those people coming out now recanting their testimonies after all these years.
It raises the question, are they truly recanting or are they all just dealing with their fears that they've put a man to death?
Either way, this man will die for this crime.
We're talking about a black man being put to death in Georgia.
Is anyone surprised?
