HUNTSVILLE — Attorneys for Richard Cobb, 29, were asking the U.S. Supreme Court to block Cobb’s execution Thursday evening for killing one of three people abducted from an East Texas convenience store.
They’re arguing that a prison expert’s false testimony tainted the jury’s decision to send Cobb to death row.
Cobb is scheduled to die Thursday evening in Huntsville for the murder of Kenneth Vandever, 37, who, along with two women, was abducted during a robbery almost 11 years ago.
