In an unprecedented development, Robert Roberson, a Texas man convicted of killing his two-year-old daughter in 2002, is set to testify today before a Texas House committee after narrowly avoiding execution last week. Roberson, whose case has been embroiled in controversy due to the now-debunked theory of "shaken baby syndrome," was scheduled to be executed, but a last-minute subpoena from a bipartisan coalition of Texas lawmakers has delayed his death sentence. This marks the first time the Texas Supreme Court has intervened to halt an execution under such circumstances.
