There is nothing more to litigate. There is simply a disagreement between the State of Texas and the World Court. Tell the World Court to pound sand and move on.

Good thing that Texas is a Sovereign State and has the powers reserved to it under the Constitution of the United States.

More waste of taxpayer dollars by people who have their own self-importance pumped way out of proportion to the facts of the case.
Wonder just how swiftly this perp killed his victims?????
Way too much taxpayer money is spent on these kinds of things.

Death week, not death row.
Seriously, why is it that we are abiding by the “World Court” when no one else would dare give up their soverignty?
Empirical Power we are, that is for damned sure.

Not only no, but hell no.
We are not beholden to or under the authority of any world court.
If other places want to try and harm Americans over this, when a brutal murder of two young girls took place, then they will suffer 1st the loss of trade with the US as people and companies quit going there, and if they push it too far, they will suffer under the force of arms of the US Marines.
That's how this should work and these other nations better damn well be aware of it.

The SCOTUS has ruled that this is a State, not a federal, issue. Just do it, Texas!

"José Medellin was sentenced to die after confessing to the brutal gang rape and murder of two teenage girls in Houston."
So the World Court excuses these kinds of crimes? What about the two teenage girls? They don't count? What about the families of the two girls? Justice was served and punishment needs to be carried out post haste.

The “World Court” isn’t looking for a flaw in the case, the world opinion is that the death penalty is “wrong”. Not so much public outcry against the gang rape and murder of two teenaged girls.
The victims were hispanic too so there is no racial element to this seeking punishment. The father one of the girls publicly speaks out these days that he agrees with the punishment.

This act of anti-American treason, the Bush Admin supporting the rights of an illegal alien scumbag murderer over the rights of American citizens, is sickening.
And there are still people who believe Bush and the GOP is conservative...
