In this April 6, 2022 photo provided by Texas state Rep. Jeff Leach, Texas death row inmate Melissa Lucio, dressed in white, leads a group of seven Texas lawmakers in prayer in a room at the Mountain View Unit in Gatesville, Texas. The lawmakers visited Lucio to update her about their efforts to stop her April 27 execution. The lawmakers say they are troubled by Lucio’s case and believe her execution should be stopped as there are legitimate questions about whether she is guilty.
There’s no question that 2-year-old Mariah Alvarez’s death in 2007 was a tragedy. When her family found her unresponsive in their home, they called 9-1-1. They told police that days before, the toddler had fallen down a flight of stairs. Police immediately fixated on Melissa as a criminal abuser whose actions directly led to the death of little Mariah.
Our appeal for clemency is a bipartisan effort and asks that no innocent life is taken by the state of Texas.
