MOM ON DEATH ROW IN TEXAS

Published: March 17, 2022, 9:27 p.m.

Melissa Lucio mother of 14 will be executed on April 27th 2022 by the State of Texas if Governor Gregg Abbott or the D.A. of Cameron County don't stop the Execution. Only the President & these 2 men can stop her death sentence. Film Maker & investigative journalist Sabrina Van Tassel is interviewed in this episode and explains the last few years of her investigative research into Melissa Lucio\u2019s case. Sabrina's documentary is now on Hulu & Amazon. Melissa didn't have a fair trial in Cameron County Texas. \u201cThe State of Texas vs. Melissa\u201d which was selected for Tribeca in 2020 and it has won a flurry of accolades, including\xa0Raindance's best documentary award. What do you think about the documentary? Do they give a fx*ck about Chicanos? A prosecutor in Melissa's case immediately went to work for the District Attorney's office after he helped lock her up.... did they work in Cahoots selling out to the "GOOD OLE BOY SYSTEM " that bribes and pitts the state and corruption against the people. Do Judges get paid for favors to get to the top? Some of these conspirators included a sitting judge that was getting paid to lock up Raza and making it common practice without representation of our interests in this case. Is Texas a cesspool of corruption or is Red State "Conservatism" simply a swamp Bordering Racism. After prosecuting Melissa's case for they state the D.A.'s office crowned Villalobos the new District Attorney (WOW)!!!!! What a surprise.... After working as the new D.A. for the State he gets arrested and thrown in prison for serious criminal activities leading to an indictment & charges... the D.A. Villalobos got seven counts of extortion, three counts of honest services fraud, one count of violating federal anti-racketeering laws, and one count of conspiracy to violate the RICO Act including for 13 years along with other members of the court including a couple of judges. And Lucio still sits in solitary confinement awaiting the death penalty. This is obviously foul to not explore the foul play that was involved in the procedures of Melissa Lucio\u2019s case. Melissa's case was eventually reversed on appeal and the state of Texas immediately overturned the reversal of the appeal and sentenced her to death within 90 days to silence a devastated, traumatized Lucio family. As a Texan I am saddened by the court system if it does not serve the interest of our people. Does the state fear all the media attention this case is starting to garner? And if so does that mean that you can play a role in making noise 4 Chicano Justice. Currently the Supreme Court is choosing to lay deaf & ignore the procedural corruption involved in this case. Is the State of Texas really convinced Melissa is a murderer after all of this? Carrying out the death penalty after all this and a weak conviction that was\xa0overturned\xa0by a three-judge panel of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, which found that the trial court violated her right to present a complete defense by barring the testimony of two witnesses, prosecutors successfully appealed, convincing the same court to\xa0reinstate\xa0Lucio\u2019s conviction in 2021. In January, the state set an execution date of April 27. They don't give a F*XK about us. Texas is murdering Gente and have been doing this since the Texas Rangers began hanging innocent Mexican-American citizens over 100 years ago. Sign the petition @innocenceproject,org
