Texas executed Jamaal Howard, 46, on Wednesday, marking the first execution in the U.S. since Christa Pike's botched lethal injection last week. Howard was sentenced to death for fatally shooting a convenience store clerk during a robbery in 2000. His lawyers argued against the execution due to concerns about the drug pentobarbital used, following Pike's failed execution, and Howard's claimed intellectual disability. However, his appeals were denied.
