Court refuses to stop execution of Mexican

HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) -- A Mexican national was executed Thursday for the rape-slaying of a San Antonio teenager after the U.S. Supreme Court turned down a White House-supported appeal to spare him in a death penalty case where Texas justice triumphed over international treaty concerns.

Humberto Leal, 38, received lethal injection for the 1994 murder of Adria Sauceda. She was fatally bludgeoned with a piece of asphalt.

Apparently the thugs south of the border have been threatening to behead border authorities and drug agents ..... This sends a message .

Texas murdered The Commanche Chiefs. All tidy and legal. Texas tried to get Jacinto Trevino, for the execution of my Rinche uncle. But they failed, and who missed the rat, anyway? Maybe they finally got one right. The sad thing is, Santa Anna didn't get to hang The Texians and scatter their ashes.
