Dallas, June 4 (RHC)-- The U.S. state of Texas has executed a death row prisoner convicted of the 1983 killings of four men. Lester Bower is the oldest person executed in Texas in three decades, at 67 years old.
Lester Bower had always maintained his innocence. In March, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a review of the case, but three justices said they favored throwing out his death sentence.
