"" HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) — A Texas woman
convicted of the starvation and torture death
of her girlfriend's 9-year-old son a decade ago
was executed Wednesday evening.
Lisa Coleman, 38, received a lethal injection
about an hour after the U.S. Supreme Court
rejected a last-day appeal to spare her. She
was pronounced dead at 6:24 p.m. CDT, 12
minutes after Texas Department of Criminal
officials began administering a lethal dose of
pentobarbital.""


I wont include the part abt how she died....instead, Ill quote the part of how her victim died.....


"" Paramedics who found him dead said they
were shocked to learn his age. He weighed 36
pounds, about half that of a normal 9-year-
old. A pediatrician later would testify that he
had more than 250 distinct injuries, including
burns from cigarettes or cigars and scars from
ligatures, and that a lack of food made him
stop growing.
"There was not an inch on his body that not
been bruised or scarred or injured," said Dixie
Bersano, one of Coleman's trial prosecutors.
Coleman's trial attorneys said the boy's death
at the apartment in Arlington was an accident.
They said he may have had mental health
issues that made him difficult to handle and
Coleman and Williams didn't know how to deal
with him in a positive manner.""

Sorry, not a tear shed for her.......
