Houston serial killer Danny Bible's lawyers say he is too sick to execute, predict botched procedure

June 10, 2018

Lawyers for Houston-area serial killer Danny Bible filed a civil rights suit Friday alleging the aging death row inmate is in such poor health that any attempts to execute him will end in a gruesome, botched procedure.

The so-called "ice pick killer" has Parkinson's, bad veins and a slew of other medical conditions that raise the possibility of a prolonged and painful lethal injection process his lawyers argue could violate the 8th Amendment's ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

The 66-year-old is scheduled to die on June 27.

"Texas will almost certainly join Alabama and Ohio and add itself to the unconscionable list of botched executions in America," his attorney Jeremy Schepers told the Chronicle....

For reference:

A serial murderer and rapist infamous for the 1979 ice pick killing of 20-year-old mother Inez Deaton has been given an execution date in Texas. A judge in Harris County signed an execution order for 66-year-old Danny Bible on Monday, scheduling his execution for June 27.

In a news release, Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg detailed how Bible had “left a trail of carnage in his wake” in the years after he fled Texas following Deaton’s brutal rape and murder. Deaton was a married mother of a 2-year-old and close friends with Bible’s cousin.

On one day in 1983, Bible raped and murdered Pam Hudgins and then murdered Tracy Powers and her 4-month-old son, Justin. After pleading guilty to Hudgins’s murder, Bible was sentenced to 25 years in prison but was paroled in 1992.

After his release, Ogg said, Bible raped five juvenile members of his family and was then captured again in 1998 following another brutal rape in Louisiana. It was during the interrogation over that attack that Bible confessed to murdering Deaton.

I'm sure he didn't mean to do all those things.   /s

LI is to good for this creep.  Cane we shoot him and the string his ass up from the tallest tree just to be sure he is dead?

Get a Guillotine, it's damn near impossible to botch an execution with one of those, unless you're a magician.

His death should be every bit as painful as that of his victims.

This kind of monster is exactly what the death penalty is for.

I agree with others.


Find another way, and get rid of him.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

I believe shooting him  will cure his illness. He will definitely not be sick after being ventilated by six or seven slugs.

The severely wounded John Brown was medically treated, so he could be tried and hanged.

I never could figure out we don't just cut out the middle man.

I guess that would require a bunk deathbed to calculate the drop.

I thought he was brought in on a stretcher.  A bunk bed would add a more rigidity to the drop.
