NOW: With A Needle In His Arm, Death Row Inmate Has Execution Called Off May 21, 2026

Show notes

Death row inmate Tony Carruthers was scheduled to die by lethal injection this morning in Tennessee. The execution was initially delayed as officials awaited the Supreme Court’s decision on an ACLU emergency filing asking for a stay of execution to test DNA from the case. Once SCOTUS denied the request, medical personnel spent an hour and a half looking for a suitable vein for a backup line and could not find one. Officials then called off the execution and as we recorded this episode, the Governor issued a reprieve for Carruthers for one year.

BREAKING: Assistant Principal Sobs In Court As Judge Dismisses All Charges Against Her, In First Grade Shooting May 21, 2026

Show notes

A Virginia judge shocked the courtroom, and the woman charged with 8 counts of felony child neglect, by dismissing all charges against former assistant principal, Dr. Ebony Parker. The prosecution rested its case after calling dozens of witnesses, including the first grade teacher who survived a bullet wound to the chest, maintaining that Parker failed to act appropriately after being warned that a 6-year-old student brought a loaded gun to school. After the defense asked for dismissal before beginning its case, the judge announced she was striking all counts against Parker, saying the court “is of the legal opinion that this is not a crime.”
