Default Derrick Johnson TX RIP
It seems that despite last minute efforts by his attorneys and the ACLU, TX executed Derrick. Thoughts to the family. Good bye Derrick, rest in peace.

yes, sadly enough he has been executed. I have attended a vigil in front of the Walls Unit for him today. We were hoping that he would be spared this because there was a delay.
Rest in peace, Derrick. My thoughts and prayers are with him and with his family and loved ones as well as with the victim's family.

R.I.P. Derrick. Prayers to your family, friends and supporters at this sad time. Fly free, my friend!

The Texas march of death rolls on!

Utterly absurd, and under the laws of the United States, unlawful. Somehow that never seems to matter to the state of Texas.

Hopefully Mr. Johnson is at peace now. The rest of us must carry on, now in his name as well.
