flag Texas court overturns death sentence for man with intellectual disabilities.

flag A Texas court has overturned the death sentence of Clarence Jordan, a 70-year-old man who spent nearly 50 years on death row after being convicted of murder. flag The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals ruled the punishment unconstitutional due to the failure to consider his intellectual disabilities and lack of legal representation during sentencing. flag While Jordan's conviction remains intact, he is now eligible for life in prison with parole, marking a significant reversal for a case cited as an example of systemic failures in the justice system.
