Sean Derrick O’Brien to Be Executed Tomorrow

On June 24, 1993, Jennifer Ertman, 14, and Elizabeth Pena, 16, were brutally raped, beat, and then strangled to death by a group of gangbangers in Houston.

Of the six men convicted in these horrific crimes, O’Brien will be the first to finally receive the penalty that the people of the State of Texas have demanded.

O’Brien has already had one execution date this year halted; I doubt he’s that lucky again tomorrow.

The parents of the two victims have waited too long for this day:

“It doesn’t make me happy,” Pena’s father, Adolfo, said in a recent interview. “But this is the punishment he was given, and it’s justifiable. … I kind of feel numb in a way, knowing that I’ve been waiting so long for this day to come. … I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time.”

“Don’t say time makes things better,” Pena’s father said. “It never goes away. It’s never going to go away. The hurt is still the same. I still find myself crying just out of the blue.”

“I hope the son of a bitch rots in hell,” Ertman’s father, Randy, said last week. “He deserves it.”

i feel so much sympathy for the families. so many lives torn apart. nothing will ever be the same. Even after so many years, given the brutal nature of the crime, I just pray that God will put his hands around the families and help them heal with time.

They did it. It’s over. Noora can wear black and enjoy her “widow” status.

Noora will go search for a new DR - of course!

Noora likes to be ridiculed! She is asking for this when she met her lover Sean.

Imagine dying, being raped, tortured and beaten, by a black greasy nigger!!! What a horrible way to die!!! That had to be the worst, to have your innocence taken by these animals. I would rather die than to live with the pain of these six pigs ravaging my body. O”brien is dead, justice has been served. I hope that Cantu and Medillin are shaking in thier prison issued flip flops. Rest in peace Jenny and Elizabeth. You are now a little more vindicated. They will all get their punishment. In this life and the next one.
