Based on the evidence, do you think Ruben is Guilty?



The US Supreme Court has HALTED an execution in Texas of 43 y/o Ruben Gutierrez, just ONE HOUR before he was set to die today..and Kim Kardashian CELEBRATES on twitter!!

He was set to die over the 1998 murder of an elderly mobile home park owner during a robbery but was given a 4 month reprieve over the delay of executions because of COVID-19 as well as not being allowed a priest at his execution which they said was a violation of his religious rights!!

The Supreme Court granted the emergency petition by lawyers after they banned chaplains and other religious advisors to death chambers as Gutierrez is Catholic

On the night of the murder, he was attempting to steal more than 600,000 that Escolastica Harrison hid in her home before he killed her.

Kardashian wrote "Thank you Supreme Court of the United States for granting a Stay of Execution for Ruben Gutierrez. Now his case will go back to the lower courts to decide the issues with his case!"

He would have been the first inmate in Texas to receive a lethal injection since February as Missouri resumed theirs on May 19

Shawn Nolan, his attorney says "As a devout catholic, his faith requires the assistance of clergy to help him pass from life into aferlife"

He maintained his innocence since the beginning as lawyers say there is no physical or forensic evidence connecting him to the killing

A court document says he and 2 others, Rene Garcia and Pedro Garza in 1998 went to the home and stabbed Harrison to death with a SCREWDRIVER and made off with 56,000

Garcia is serving a life sentence while Garza fled after being released on bond and is still a fugitive

The state fought against a DNA test but his lawyer is arguing for it to be done

Gutierrez befriended Harrison, a retired teacher so he could rob her. Harrison had a mistrust in banks and hid her money in a false floor in her house

The DA said he was disappointed in the delay as the victim's family once again are denied justice but says this changes nothing on his ultiamte fate. They said this is all a ruise that included evidence and a confession

Do you think he's guilty?

I dont know if he's guilty or innocent but I very strongly oppose the death penalty
Its always wrong I don't care who did what. The death penalty should be banned forever

I'm opposed to it because

  1. It costs more than a life sentence
  2. It doesn't deter crime
  3. There'll never be a guarantee that the person is 100% guilty

Still oppose it. Killing is wrong. Just give them life in prison. I would be a hypocrite I said it was sometimes OK.

Caught by who?

People lie/are mistaken and video footage can sometimes be misleading

plenty of people who were "caught in the act" have ended up absolved or at least partially
