Gary Graham, 36, was executed by lethal injection in Texas for a 1981 killing outside a Houston supermarket. He claimed innocence as protests roiled outside, with Gov. Bush defending the justice of the case amid appeals delays and public controversy over capital punishment.
Texas governor George W. Bush defends executions as he campaigns in Alabama and Washington state, insisting no innocent person has been executed on his watch. A Scripps Howard Texas Poll shows 57 percent think an innocent person was put to death. 87 percent support DNA access for inmates. Gallup nationally finds 66 percent backing capital punishment. Bush says executions deter crime and will continue if elected president.
