Linda Carty is on Texas' death row. She was convicted in 2002 of killing a young mother during a kidnapping in Harris County. She is a British citizen. The British human rights group Reprieve says she's been unfairly convicted.
How did Linda end up on death row? On May 16, 2001 Carty and three co-defendants invaded the home of a Joana Rodriguez. She and her three day old baby were kidnapped and two other victims were beaten, duct taped, and left in the residence. The mother was hog-tied with duct tape, a bag was taped over her head, and she was placed in the trunk of a car. She died from suffocation.
If Linda doesn't like our laws, perhaps she shouldn't have come here.
