Texas v. Justice

Is Texas still going to execute a man who acted as his own counsel “dressed as a cowboy in a purple suit and a hat [and] attempt[ed] to call more than 200 witnesses, including John F. Kennedy, the pope, Anne Bancroft, and Jesus Christ?” Sadly, you probably know the answer to this question.

Here’s another telling detail:

Sonja Alvarado, his estranged second wife, tries to have him committed after Panetti comes after her with a knife. She takes his guns to the local police, but they return them, saying they have no legal right to prevent Panetti from having them.

For the record, at this point he had been hospitalized 14 times for mental health issues, and had buried his furniture in the backyard because it was possessed. Hard to see what harm would come from allowing him to possess firearms!
