    EXECUTION IN TEXAS: THE OVERVIEW; Divisive Case of a Killer of Two Ends as... Page 1 of 5 EXECUTION IN TEXAS: THE OVERVIEW EXECUTION IN TEXAS: THE OVERVIEW;Divisive Case of a Killerof Two Ends as TexasExecutes Tucker By Sam Howe Verhovek Feb.4, 1998 See the article in its original context from February 4, 1998, Section A, Page 1 Buy Reprints VIEW ON TIMESMACHl�E TimesMachine is an exclusive benefit for home deliveryand digital subscribers. Saying "I love all of you very much" and smiling as lethal chemicals were pumped into her body, Karla Faye Tucker was executed tonight in Texas, becoming the first woman put to death by the state since the Civil War. The execution ended a case that attracted an extraordinary amount of attention around the world and led to fierce debate about redemption on death row. The prospect of executing a woman clearly exposed a societal raw nerve, but it also prompted many death-penalty supporters to insist that Ms. Tucker had gained undeserved sympathy because of her sex and her doe-eyed good looks. Ms. Tucker, 38, who murdered two people with a pickax in Houston 15 years ago, came to be known recently, through relentless media coverage of her death row interviews, as a soft-spoken, gentle-looking, born-again Christian pleading for mercy. But her final appeals to the Supreme Court and to Gov. George W. Bush for a reprieve were denied today. She became the second woman executed in the United States since the Supreme Court allowed the death penalty to resume, in 1976.

  • Episode 13: Women Hello and Welcome to the Death Penalty
    Episode 13: Women Hello and welcome to the Death Penalty Information Center’s series of podcasts, exploring issues related to capital punishment. In this edition, we will be discussing women and the death penalty. Have women always been represented on death row in the United States? When was the first woman executed? Yes, in theory women have always been eligible for the death penalty in the United States, though they have been executed far less often than men. The first woman executed in what is now the U.S. was Jane Champion, in 1632. She received the death penalty in Virginia for murder. The first woman executed in the modern era of the death penalty was Velma Barfield. She was given a lethal injection in North Carolina in 1984. Do death penalty laws treat men and women differently? No. The laws are written in a gender-neutral way. However, the federal government forbids the execution of a woman who is pregnant. The U.S. has also ratified a treaty with a similar provision. In some countries, criminal laws are specifically written to affect women and men differently. What percentage of death row inmates are women? What percentage of executions involve women? As of October 31, 2010, there were 55 women on death row. They made up 1.7% of all death row inmates. In all of American history, there have only been 569 documented executions of women, out of over 15,000 total executions. Since 1976, twelve women have been executed, accounting for about 1% of executions during that time.

  • OPEN LETTER from AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL to GOVERNOR GEORGE W BUSH of TEXAS CONCERNING the IMMINENT 100Th EXECUTION UNDER HIS ADMINISTRATION
    AMR 51/146/99 6 September 1999 OPEN LETTER FROM AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL TO GOVERNOR GEORGE W BUSH OF TEXAS CONCERNING THE IMMINENT 100th EXECUTION UNDER HIS ADMINISTRATION “Intravenous tubes attached to his arms will carry the instrument of death, a toxic fluid designed specifically for the purpose of killing human beings. The witnesses, standing a few feet away, will behold Callins, no longer a defendant, an appellant, or a petitioner, but a man, strapped to a gurney, and seconds away from extinction.” Justice Blackmun, US Supreme Court, 1994. Dear Governor Amnesty International deeply regrets that the dehumanizing process described by Justice Blackmun continues at an increasing pace in Texas, and has now been repeated 99 times under your administration. The organization respectfully urges you to consider the appalling human reality behind that stark statistic and prevent it from increasing yet further, due to occur within days. It was apt that Justice Blackmun should have chosen the case of a Texas death row inmate -- Bruce Edwin Callins -- in which to announce that he would “no longer tinker with the machinery of death”. For then, as now, Texas led the nation in the practice of judicial killing, a practice which Justice Blackmun, after more than 20 years of experience, had concluded could not be administered consistently, fairly or reliably. At the end of the same year, 1994, in which Justice Blackmun wrote his now famous dissent, you, Mr Governor, were elected to the highest executive office in Texas. Amnesty International deeply regrets that in the intervening years, the rate of judicial killing has increased to a point where one human being is being put to death approximately every 10 days in the Texas lethal injection chamber.
