How Will Jeffrey Lee Die Tonight? Jun 11, 2026

Show notes

It’s a question the Supreme Court may answer at some point today, as Alabama maintains it will move forward with the planned execution of double murderer Jeffrey Lee despite lower court decisions. Late last night, an appeals court upheld a judge’s ruling this week that Alabama’s nitrogen gas method of execution is unconstitutional because it is cruel and unusual. Alabama may legally follow through with tonight’s planned execution, with one of its other methods: lethal injection or electrocution, unless the Supreme Court steps in and allows the state to use nitrogen gas.

TX Congresswoman Defends Karmelo Anthony, Says Victim’s Family Wouldn’t Understand Pain Of Black Mothers Jun 10, 2026

Show notes

Within hours of Karmelo Anthony’s first degree murder verdict, Texas congresswoman Jasmine Crockett defended Anthony’s use of a deadly weapon, saying if she had someone on top of her, she wouldn’t be limited to fists either. The problem, Crockett was comparing a much different scenario than what happened at that Texas high school stadium. Earlier, Crockett explained the fear black mothers have for their black sons, but seemingly dismissed the pain of the Austin Metcalf’s mother, creating a wave of negative, racially charged comments online.

Alabama Execution Method Banned; State’s Other Option, A Big Yellow Electric Chair Jun 10, 2026

Show notes

A federal judge has ruled that nitrogen gas executions are unconstitutional, now just one day before Alabama is set to execute Jeffrey Lee by that very method. Lee was convicted for the 1998 double murder of two pawn shop employees. Alabama is now barred from using nitrogen gas, so it’s unclear how or if they plan to move forward with the state’s two other options: electrocution or lethal injection.

Show notes

A Texas jury deliberated for 2 and a half hours, quickly returning a guilty verdict for 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony who was visibly shaking in court. Anthony, who is black, was convicted of first degree murder of fellow teen Austin Matcalf, who is white. A jury with no black members then rejected a “sudden passion” option that would’ve reduced Anthony’s sentence, instead, the jury came back with a 35 year sentence for the tearful teen.

Set To Die By Gas in 2 Days, Alabama Inmate Pleads to be Shot Instead Jun 09, 2026

Show notes

49-year-old Alabama death row inmate and convicted double murderer, Jeffrey Lee is set to die by nitrogen gas on Thursday. Lee filed an appeal for a stay of execution, citing several witness accounts of suffering by at least four other inmates who died by the same method. While the court agreed the method is cruel, it sent Lee’s case to a lower court to determine whether Lee could die by firing squad instead of nitrogen gas. There’s another twist to this story, however, the jury that convicted Lee recommended life in prison, not the death penalty and his lawyers are arguing the jury’s decision should be honored.”
