True Crime Reality

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.

The state of Texas is set to execute 58-year-old Robert Roberson next week, but his attorneys have filed a last minute request for a new trial based on a recent Dateline podcast. Roberson would be the first person to ever be put to death for shaken baby syndrome, following the 2002 death of his 2 year old daughter Nikki. The science he was convicted on is no longer regarded and is considered “junk science.”  That information alone brought lawmakers from both sides of the aisle to intervene last year, to stay his execution, but that stay is up and Roberson time is up. Now, baby Nikki’s maternal grandfather is speaking up, telling a story, if true, of egregious conduct by the judge in this case from the hospital where Nikki died, all the way to the courtroom he presided over in Roberson’s trial.
