Episode Details

Texas executed its 600th inmate after hours of waiting to hear word from the Supreme Court, which ultimately decided to lift a lower court’s stay. Edward Busby was pronounced dead at 8:11 PM CT. We go over the powerful two sentence dissent from the justices against executing Busby, whose attorneys claimed was intellectually disabled, and you’ll also hear Busby’s lengthy final words, where he begs for forgiveness from the family of his victim.
