  • Summary

  • In a dramatic last-minute intervention, Texas lawmakers have delayed the execution of Robert Roberson, convicted of killing his 2-year-old daughter in 2002. At the heart of this case lies the controversial diagnosis of "shaken baby syndrome," which initially led to Roberson's conviction but has since faced widespread scrutiny in the scientific community. With just hours to spare, the Texas Supreme Court issued a rare stay, allowing Roberson’s legal team to challenge the evidence under Texas’s “junk science” law. This unprecedented legal battle raises complex questions about the intersection of justice and forensic science, while Roberson’s life hangs in the balance.
