Texas appeals court rejects innocence ruling for woman on death row
Original: Texas appeals court rejects ruling of innocence for woman on death row for 18 years
A Texas appeals court has rejected a ruling that declared a woman innocent after she spent 18 years on death row. The decision keeps her capital conviction intact and her execution eligibility unresolved, renewing debate over the case among death penalty opponents, defence lawyers and criminal justice advocates who have long argued she was wrongly convicted.
Why now: The ruling affects a high-profile death penalty case and renews debate over a possible wrongful conviction.
