"Garcia Glenn White committed five murders in three different transactions, and two of his victims were teenage girls. This is the type of case that the death penalty was intended for," said Josh Reiss, chief of the Post-Conviction Writs Division with the Harris County District Attorney's Office in Houston.
"White's lawyers have asked the U.S. Supreme Court to stop his execution after lower courts previously rejected his petitions for a stay. The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles on Friday denied White's request to commute his death sentence to a lesser penalty or to grant him a 30-day reprieve."
"His lawyers argued that Texas' top criminal appeals court has refused to accept medical evidence and strong factual backing, showing White is intellectually disabled."
