Michael Richards         

On September 25, 2007, the state of Texas is set to execute Michael Richards
for the August 18, 1986 murder of Marguerite Dixon.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights and constitute the ultimate cruel,
inhuman and degrading punishment. Although Richards does not deny that he
entered the victim's house in a robbery attempt, he claims that the gun used
in the robbery went of by accident.

for the August 8, 1998 murders of Carlton Turner Sr., and Tonya Turner. 

The state of Texas should not execute Turner for his role in this crime.
Executing Turner would violate the right to life as declared in the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights and constitute the ultimate cruel,
inhuman and degrading punishment. He was convicted of killing his adopted
parents.  Turner had a long history of violence. He claims that he was
abused by his parents which led to him committing the murders.
