A Texas inmate, Ivan Cantu, is scheduled for execution on Wednesday for the fatal shooting of his cousin, James Mosqueda, and Mosqueda's girlfriend, Amy Kitchen, during a robbery in 2000. Cantu, who has maintained his innocence, claims his conviction was based on false testimony and questionable evidence.
Prosecutors allege that Cantu killed his cousin and Kitchen during a robbery at Mosqueda's home, where illegal drugs were involved. Cantu, convicted in 2001, asserts that a rival drug dealer was responsible for the murders due to a money dispute.
