Rick Perry's government injections

Four executions in eight days:
In 2000, the then-attorney general of Texas and now-U.S. Senator John Cornyn, admitted that the racial testimony of a psychologist had wrongfully been allowed to prejudice sentencing in seven separate cases. Six of those cases were reheard as a result, but, in a legal oversight, Duane Buck's never was.
Nice.
