Jedidiah Murphy was executed on Tuesday night for a deadly carjacking that took place in 2000 Texas executed a man who killed an 80-year-old woman during carjacking 23 years ago. Jedidiah Murphy, 48, was given a lethal injection at the Texas State Penitentiary’s Huntsville Unit on Tuesday night. He was convicted in 2001 for the murder of Bertie Lee Cunningham, an 80-year-old grandmother while attempting to steal her car in the Dallas suburb of Garland.
Murphy long sought to delay the execution, claiming that prosecutors never analyzed DNA evidence that would prove his innocence. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with Murphy on Monday, delaying his execution until the DNA could be analyzed. However, the Supreme Court reversed the lower court’s decision, paving the way for Murphy’s execution on Tuesday. On Tuesday night, Murphy was brought to an execution chamber at the Huntsville Unit, which houses Texas’s death row.
