Texas Executes Convicted Killer Who Claimed Innocence Amid Cousin's Last-Minute Confession Fail

A Texas man who maintained his innocence in a fatal robbery that killed two men nearly two decades ago was executed this week. James Broadnax, 37, died by lethal injection at the state penitentiary after his claims of innocence were not swayed by his cousin's last-minute confession. The execution marks a somber end to a case that had garnered national attention in recent years. Despite the cousin's confession, no new evidence was presented, leaving Broadnax's fate sealed.
