HOUSTON — — A Texas inmate is facing scheduled execution Tuesday evening for fatally stabbing his estranged wife and drowning her 6-year-old daughter in a bathtub nearly 14 years ago.
“It’s justice for the way my daughter was tortured. It’s justice for the way that Lovetta was murdered,” Montgomery said. “These impairments likely rendered unable to form the requisite intent to commit capital murder,” Green’s attorneys wrote in 2018.The high court has prohibited the death penalty for the intellectually disabled, but not for people with serious mental illness.On the day of the killings, Armstead had written two letters to Green, telling him that although she loved him, she had “to do what’s best for me.
“Told because we’re too little to die and we won’t tell anybody about it,” the 9-year-old told jurors in testimony about how he convinced Green to spare their lives.
