Man who tortured, drowned ex-roommate set to die Wednesday - GoFuckYourself.com

HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) — A Texas inmate who taunted a jury to sentence him to death is scheduled to be executed Wednesday evening for torturing and drowning an East Texas woman in his bathtub and then stuffing her body into a barrel.

Troy Clark was condemned for the May 1998 slaying of a former roommate, Christina Muse of Tyler. Authorities said that Clark, a drug dealer, had worried that Muse, 20, would snitch on him.

The 51-year-old Clark would become the 17th inmate put to death this year in the U.S. and the ninth given a lethal injection in Texas, the nation's busiest capital punishment state. Clark's the first of two inmates set to receive lethal injection this week. Daniel Acker was scheduled to be executed Thursday for fatally running over his girlfriend.

At least eight other Texas inmates have planned execution dates in the coming months.

The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles has declined to recommend a commutation of Clark's sentence. It wasn't immediately known if he had other appeals pending. His appellate attorneys didn't return calls and emails seeking comment.

Clark has argued his trial attorneys failed to present evidence of his childhood, marked by physical and emotional abuse, which might have convinced jurors to spare his life.

Appeals courts have previously ruled that because of the overwhelming case against Clark, it's likely he still would have been sentenced to death even if the jury had heard evidence of his troubled childhood.

Prosecutors said Clark subdued Muse with a stun gun, bound her with duct tape and left her in a closet for several hours while he played video games and sold drugs to a customer.

Clark later moved Muse to a bathroom where he hit her with a board and threatened his girlfriend, Tory Bush, into helping him drown Muse in the tub. Muse's body was then stuffed into a barrel with cement mix and lime before being dumped in a ravine.

Against the advice of his attorneys, Clark testified during his trial's punishment phase, saying, "I really ain't got no story to tell. It's just I want the death penalty."

Prosecutors also presented evidence Clark had committed two other killings, including one that occurred after Muse's death but prior to his arrest. The Smith County District Attorney's Office, which prosecuted Clark, declined to comment.

Bobby Mims, one of Clark's trial attorneys, said Clark denied killing Muse.

"But there was pretty strong evidence that he was guilty. Tory Bush was pretty damning," Mims said. Bush, who testified against Clark, was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Mims said he and his co-counsel were ineffective during the punishment phase in presenting evidence of Clark's troubled childhood, which included having a mother who was incarcerated for most of his life and who introduced him to drugs.

Mims said when Clark's case was tried in 2000, most defense attorneys didn't focus on presenting mitigating evidence of a defendant's problematic life as part of their efforts to prevent a death sentence.

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has previously denied Clark's appeals on this issue, saying in 2012 that Clark refused to let his trial attorneys contact family as well as others to testify on his behalf.

"At the punishment hearing, the prosecutors actually had one or two of (Clark's) own relatives show up and they had indicated they wanted him to get the death penalty. It was crazy," Mims said.

Mims said he doesn't know if evidence of Clark's troubled life would have made a difference with the jury.

"I hope he's made peace with his maker," Mims said

Just interesting to know what executioners say to their kids. The man has got home from his work. He hugs his 5 year old girl and kisses her. She asks "daddy, what you have done today?"

I'm really laughing out loud thinking of this amazing scene. The USA is a country of an absurd and hypocrisy.

No baby, I don't know it. The Soldiers are FIGHTERS. They are not butchers and course they are not executors.

Soldiers:

A hangman:

No difference? Really?

P.S. A schoolmate of my wife (the guy gave her flowers) was a soldier at war. He has killed about (as he say) 20 men. But he has not executed them. He has a soldier and he was fighting radical Islamists. There was a fair fight: you kills them or they will kill you. This is a difference between a soldier and a hangman who executes people w/o arms in their hands.

brassmonkey · 09-26-2018, 02:22 AM

so if someone killed your family you would just let them go? or pay for prison until they die???

Are you an idiot? If someone including a cop will kill even my cat, I will kill him in a second (actually even a half of a second) because I've been taught for it. And course I know that the other cop will shoot me down. But I still will do it. This is not an execution. This is a normal reaction.

Now you will ask "what about those who were caught?" I tell ye. Let the rote in the live prison. It's not a boy-scout camp. It's a real hell and you will better die than stay there...

Yes, I will prefer them to be there ^^^ Not to be killed, but to feel what they suffer for.

brassmonkey · 09-26-2018, 02:40 AM

that is the thing... you think it's your right to make others choices which is fucking weird

Don't be an idiot. Nobody has a right to execute someone.

No one has the right, but some people have the duty. It's a little different.

And Texas doesn't care what some foreigners think on a message board. Believe me they wont even give your thoughts any consideration, as they shouldn't.

They do execute even kids. I mean those during abortions. The abortions by medical reasons. The child is alive it screams, but they put it down into a bucket of water. Sounds scary, but true.

P.S. My mother in law is henecologist. She has a patient girl with AIDS. Not HIV, but AIDS, because she did no do a treatment and she is a pregnant. Perhaps she is on heroine. The question is what to do with her unborn baby? Any suggestions?

That's exactly what we should do. Put them in a cold dark cell and feed him bread and water for the next sixty years until he dies.

Even a 5 month baby does scream and that's not funny actually. Just believe me - to the one who has a mother in law who does it (thath's her duty as you say).
