In a rare move, the Texas Court of Appeals has just halted the execution of 58-year-old Robert Roberson. Roberson was set to die by lethal injection October 16th and become the first person in this country executed for a shaken baby syndrome conviction after the death of his 2 year old daughter. He will now have another day in court to present new evidence, his lawyers saying they hope he will finally be exonerated after spending the last 22 years behind bars, an innocent man.
