SCHEDULED EXECUTIONS
On Wednesday, September 16, 2026, Texas is set to carry out its first execution in four months. LeJames Norman is scheduled to be put to death for his role in killing Sam Roberts, Tiffani Peacock, and Celso Lopez during a botched robbery in 2005 in Edna, Jackson County, Texas. He was 19 years old at the time.
Communities throughout Texas will hold vigils on the 16th to express opposition to his execution.
One week later, on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, Ker’Sean Ramey is scheduled to be executed for his role in the same crime. He was 20 years old at the time and has spent nearly half his life on death row. His trial was marred by serious constitutional violations that led to his conviction and death sentence.
Take action for Mr. Ramey this week by contacting the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles.
