Texas death row release sparks call to abolish death penalty
The Texas case of Alfred DeWayne Brown, wrongfully convicted of murdering a Houston police officer, ended with his release after 10 years on death row. The Harris County DA dismissed capital murder charges amid evidence of exculpatory material and flawed grand jury processes. The Chronicle endorses abolition and notes HB 2150 to reform grand jury selection, urging Gov. Abbott to sign.
