In final moments before execution, Texas inmate finds forgiveness
(The Christian Science Monitor) Juan Martin Garcia was executed Tuesday for a fatal shooting and the robbery of $8.
Garcia was pronounced dead from lethal injection at 6:26 p.m. in Huntsville, Texas, for the September 1998 killing of 36-year-old Hugo Solano. Solano had recently moved to Houston, Texas, from Guadalajara, Mexico, so his children could be educated in the United States.
Garcia apologized to Solano’s wife, Ana, and his daughter who were present at the execution.
