Texas will execute a man who was sitting in a pickup when a murder took place elsewhere.
On August 24, 2016, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice plans to inject Jeffery Lee Wood with a lethal dose of pentobarbital to stop his heart.
The scheduled execution is Jeffery Lee Wood’s punishment for the 1996 death of a man he did not kill — and, by some accounts, did not know was going to be killed.
