In Dallas, 50-year-old Ivan Cantu was executed Wednesday night, marking the end of a legal saga that spanned over two decades. Cantu was pronounced dead at 6:47 PM after being condemned for the 2000 murders of his cousin, James Mosqueda, and Mosqueda's fiancée, Amy Kitchen.
Despite maintaining his innocence throughout the lengthy legal process, Cantu's pleas for more time went unheeded. The execution proceeded as scheduled.
No further details were immediately available regarding the execution.
