Here’s one video shared with us of the state-ordered execution. The man was beaten in the head with a gun, shot once, then shot five more times while on the ground. State-ordered executions continue.

Made myself (and husband) two of my favorite items for Xmas dinner: poblano and corn hand pies with Mexican crema, and key lime pie. Celebrating with an all-pie meal is the best.
